Tech Lowdown

TECHNOLOGIES
Texas Instruments ICs
TI low-noise ICs offer great Unity-Gain Bandwidth, very low-noise, high
output-drive capability, Common-Mode Rejection Ratio: 100 dB and
maximum-output-swing bandwidths, low distortion and high slew rate.
Class 1 ceramic TDK C0G
TDK C0G capacitors offer high stability and low losses for resonant circuit
applications. They are pricey but are a perfect addition to our products.
Multi-layer capacitors
The ZEN Phono uses muRata control-type, low-ESR high-Q multi-layer
capacitors. The ‘ESR control’ aspect of the muRata is something special. Their
noise suppression abilities are impressive.
