This IFD describes a single op-amp voltage indicator that lights LEDs to indicate the input voltage’s relationship to two thresholds. Green indicates input above the top threshold, red the input below ...

One of the most common requests I get from engineers is for a comparison of voltage-feedback op amps and current-feedback op amps. It is impossible to determine which one better suits a given ...

Tucson, Ariz. – Apex Microtechnology touts its PA38 and PA39 high-voltage MOSFET power op-amp boards- built with SMT components on a thermally conductive but electrically isolated substrate-as a ...

You can take an op amp with rare input characteristics and elevate it to achieve higher voltage range, better gain accuracy, higher slew rate, and less distortion than the original op amp. I was ...

My hands-on introduction to operational amplifiers was in 1969 while in the army as a junior scientist in the Atmospheric Science Laboratory at the White Sands Proving Grounds. We had taken a ...

A dual precision op amp from STMicroelectronics is designed to have a low and temperature-stable input-offset voltage. The TSZ182 op amp has a chopper-stabilised design and a 3MHz gain-bandwidth. The ...

As analog engineers, it’s tempting to fantasize about one day coming close to designing the ideal operational amplifier we encountered in college: infinite bandwidth, zero output resistance, and so on ...

The operational amplifier, or op amp, is one of the most basic building blocks used in analog circuits. Ever since single-chip op amps were introduced in the 1960s, thousands of different types have ...

Power operational amplifiers (POPs) are becoming increasingly common in control circuitry. Power operational amplifiers (POPs) are becoming increasingly common in control circuitry. Their primary ...

Op amps are generally pretty easy to apply, but there are some practical nonideal behaviors you have to keep in mind. [EEforEveryone] takes a test board with some 2X amplifiers on it and — after some ...
