“The Clock” Super Regulators There are two “Super Regulators” on “The Clock”. One Super Regulator powers the clock circuit, the other power the special unique buffer section. The regulators use very low noise operational amplifiers, offering a noise performance near the limits of what can be achieved without permanently super cooling the circuit in liquidRead More
