Operational amplifiers are a valuable component for designers. There are many different types of circuits that can be designed using op amps. Designers may not be aware of all of the possible ...

The specification of operational amplifiers requires designers to sort through a rat's nest of parameters. There are dozens of suppliers, selection guides, databooks, and FAEs to consult. To make the ...

Of digital electronics, a wise man once said that “Every idiot can count to one.” Truer words have rarely been spoken, because at the end of the day, every digital circuit is really just an analog ...

All operational amplifier (op-amp) datasheets have an input voltage range limitation called the common-mode range. Strictly speaking, the common-mode voltage is the average voltage on the two inputs ...
