message: "In the summer of 1991, the video was released and received heavy airplay on MTV, but was infrequently shown on the regular music channels." -- Can someone validate this statement before I just erase it entirely? What does it mean by "regular music channels"? In 1991, there was MTV, VH1, and what, like MTV2...   I really don't understand - you can't get anymore "regular" than MTV circa '91.

message: There as a lot of unsourced stuff, like what bass Claypool uses, and a lot of subjective words --- I would hardly call the song a "smash hit" and the interpretation that was listed for the song (about an alley cat looking for love), is totally arguable, and really unfeasible given the lyrics. They suggest the contrary, that a female cat wandered into an alleyway looking for the ultimate stud cat, and his name was Tommy the Cat.  http://www.lyricsfreak.com/p/primus/tommy+the+cat_20110928.html  BubbaStrangelove (talk) 14:55, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Current-feedback operational amplifier

message: According to Bruce Carter of the Advanced Linear Products division of Texas Instruments...
"The bandwidth specification given in op amp data sheets refers only to the point where the unit gain bandwidth of the device has been reduced by 3 dB by internal compensation and/or parasitics -- not very useful for determining the actual operating frequency range of the device."
"Internally compensated, voltage feedback amplifier bandwidth is dominated by an internal 'dominant pole' compensation capacitor, resulting in a constant gain/bandwidth limitation.  Current-feedback amplifiers, in contrast, have no dominant pole capacitor and therefore can operate MUCH MORE CLOSELY TO THEIR MAXIMUM FREQUENCY AT HIGHER GAIN [emphasis added].  Stated another way, the gain/bandwidth dependence has been broken."
::Bruce Carter is wrong. All practical feedback amplifiers require compensation, and in most practical cases, a main dominant pole. The dominant pole compensation of a CFA is achieved by the capacitor marked as Cs in the schematic on the main CFA page in conjunction with the feedback resistor. Kevin Aylward 18:31, 31 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  This is only practically true for internally compensated VFB amps. All VFAs can be designed to have, essentially, the same BW as CFAs by choosing the correct value of compensation capacitor and incorporating an AB input stage. Kevin Aylward 18:31, 31 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Clarification is in order 

message: I believe the schematic diagram should show a resistor in parallel with Cs, as it is that internal resistor that determines the transimpedance gain of the I to V converter section.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.91.201.72 (talk) 17:09, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, there is an effective internal ro at the high gain node, which with the input GM, fixes the DC open loop gain. However, the resulting transresistance is not really relevant to the CFA description as a whole, as the node is buffered by an, ideally, zero output resistance unity gain stage.

thread_title: Patents

message: I came here to learn about the current-feedback architecture, so I'm not really qualified to make changes. But I believe that pink-outlined stage in the schematic should be called, simply, a voltage buffer. The triangle has a high impedance input and a low-impedance output whose voltage tracks the input, correct? That's not a "current amplifier", as stated in the graphic.

message: ...can we have one?  
-- TimNelson (talk) 04:18, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Discography 

message: Let's have a bit of early morn controversy. Ewan MacColl was born in Salford in England of Scottish parents. He later lived in London. At no point in his life was he resident in Scotland. He may have wanted to be Scottish, and substituted his mum's birthplace for his own on occasion, but that doesn't make him Scottish. We don't have internal passports here in the UK and so birthplace and residence are the sole rational criteria for nationality. I'm not a Londoner because both my parents were born there. Jimmie Miller was born and grew up in Salford. That makes him English in my book. If you look through his songbook you won't find a dominance of material of Scottish origin. So IMO all this English/Scottish Scottish/English defining is splitting imaginary hairs. Away with it. MichaelW (talk) 10:05, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, although obviously the whole English / Scottish / British thing is a little contentious with some Scots. My dad was born in Cardiff to English parents, but that doesn't make him Welsh. Cryomaniac (talk) 19:52, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: To an American rock writer anyone who changes his name to MacSomething is Scottish. Did EMac ever live in Scotland? attend school in Scotland? grow up with Scottish pals? George Gershwin is not a Ukrainian composer though his parents were born there. Best to stick to the facts: born in England of Scottish parents. Burraron (talk) 08:47, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

text: It was a long-standing policy to forbid Communists from entering the USA. MacColl was not just your garden-variety commie twat, he actually wrote songs praising Stalin and the Soviets.
