2008-09-03 21:11:49 - Detecting the florescence of foreign materials inside the human body is subject to a variety of competing technical challenges.

Maynard, MA- (September 3, 2008) Orchid Technologies Engineering & Consulting, completes the design of high-speed transconductance amplifers for detection of plaque build up in veins and arteries for their medical client. Orchid's client needed an amplifer system that could detect the smallest variations in florescent light levels inside the human body. Orchid met those challenges by designing a reliable, highly

repeatable, and accurate transconductance amplifer.

'The design of high-speed sensitive transconductance amplifiers requires experience,' says, Paul Nickelsberg, President and Senior Engineer of Orchid Technologies. ' The amplifier is capable of detecting infra red light levels below-40dbm with a frequency response flat to 35KHz.' ' We were able to use analog circuit modeling techniques, advanced on-the-bench prototyping and testing techniques, together with signal-source fixturing to design this high-speed transconductance amplifer.'

Achieving consistent results in an ever-changing biological environment required precision analog electronics you can trust.
