converting Volt into dB

<< < (7/7)

--- Quote ---In the field of audio and general purpose amplifiers, especially operational amplifiers, the term usually refers to voltage gain,[2] but in radio frequency amplifiers it usually refers to power gain.

Worth noting that when it refers to voltage gain, it's still reported as the equivalent power gain under assumption of equal load impedance. That is, a 10x voltage gain is reported as 20dB because it corresponds to 100x power gain, not as 10dB because it's a 10x gain.
Just Wikipedia being a misleading pile fo turd as usual :--

You can reiterate it as many times as you want, but unless you back it up with some actual evidence then I'm just going to ignore it.

You pervert, you!  :)
