The schematic is accompanied by a brief description of the key aspects of the design, and in some cases, also links to another built-in utility that can be used to further refine the component selection. In Expert mode, the designer is presented with all 24 possible solutions in block diagram form, and simply clicks on the desired topology, which goes straight to the solution schematic.

In Beginner mode, the designer answers a series of questions, and then is presented with a schematic of the solution, and in some cases, optional versions of the solution. Two modes are offered: Beginner mode and Expert mode. AC-coupled and DC-coupled designs are supported, as well as single supply and dual supply topologies. The available topologies cover differential, single-ended and transformer-coupled input designs.

It offers 24 different op-amp based buffer circuits that can be used to drive an ADC input. ADC-INPUT-CALC is an online tool that provides support for designing the input buffer to an analog-to-digital converter (ADC).
