Hi Peter,
Thanks for articulating the need for algorithm ID and access to help. I too have noticed that certain algs are indistinguishable once used in a schematic, but have not paid much attention.
Selecting any item and pressing F1 usually brings up its built-in help -- however, newer blocks aren't in the help file because ADI is concentrating on the wiki to provide help.
Here's a workaround to distinguish similar blocks in a schematic: Right-click the block, then mouse over the Remove Algorithm choice. The block's full name appears:
This also worked for the two dynamics processors you mentioned.
