Op amps are the ubiquitous component in the “analog glue” circuitry in so many systems. The choices are endless. When designers select an op amp, they often narrow their search by focusing on one of a ...

This chapter of the book deals with data conversion and associated signal conditioning circuitry involving the use of op amps. Data conversion is a very broad topic, and this chapter will provide only ...

Andy recommends favorite resources for basic op amp circuits and includes a portion of TI's AN-20. Test your knowledge with our op amp quiz; answer explanations are included. By 1969, a fledgling ...

If you’re designing a linear circuit of any kind today, it most likely involves an op amp and even an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The op amp is your go-to device simply because it can be ...

[Tim] wanted to help out a ECE student struggling with some Op-Amp problems. He put together a video which does a good job of explaining what an Op-Amp does, then tackles each of the questions one at ...

In the last Circuit VR we looked at some basic op amp circuits in a simulator, including the non-inverting amplifier. Sometimes you want an amplifier that inverts the signal. That is a 5V input ...

Power operational amplifiers (POPs) are becoming increasingly common in control circuitry. Their primary advantages over conventional amplifiers are reduced part counts, increased reliability, and ...

Guest columnist Harry Holt, applications engineer at Analog Devices, believes that two into one is a relevant question when designs need more than one operational amplifier. In designs requiring ...

Delivering many improved major specs over traditional LM324 op-amps, but with rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, STMicroelectronics has introduced a 6MHz all-rounder op-amp family that will operate from ...

As one of the basic building blocks used in an array of consumer, industrial, scientific and other applications, the operation amplifier (op amp) is amongst the most widely used electronic devices.
