The usable range of one stage, in a 10 kHz measurement
Drawn above at its default parameters, which is almost never how an essay calls it. A placement states the numbers that essay is arguing about, so the figure a reader meets is about that argument rather than about the generator — 98% of the placements on this site pass one, and the phase that raised that number from 12% found eight captions describing a figure the page was not showing.
At those defaults the edge it states is 66 dB between them — the right-hand slot
of the caption strip, which on this site is never used for anything else, and which is read
back out of the drawing above rather than out of the code that wrote it.
It belongs to The floor, and what is under it, which is to say a change to it is a
change to lib/figures/noise.js.
It takes a slider on measurement bandwidth (hertz) with 6 settings,
and every one of them has passed the same assertions as the frame above — a figure whose
circuit stops doing what its caption says at any setting stops the build.

A floor and a ceiling
Every other boundary on this site is a ceiling. This one puts a floor underneath and measures the distance between them — 4.00 nanovolts per root hertz at the bottom, one per cent of harmonic distortion at 1.03 millivolts at the top, and 66.3 decibels of range in a ten-kilohertz measurement. Both ends are computed, neither is on a datasheet, and the arrangement of the stages decides which one moves.
The ceiling is not at the output
A fifth-order Chebyshev's noisiest node is its output and its largest signal is not. F0b carries 4.537 times the input, so on ±15 V the range is 142.44 decibels and not the 155.57 an instrument on the output reports. Across fifteen realised filters the output reading spans 3.97 dB and the range they actually have spans 22.34 — and one family of the three has no internal peaking at all, at any order.
