Most ICs’ data sheets list a maximum supplycurrent, but manufacturers often overlookthe measurement conditions. For some rail-to-rail-output op amps, certain operatingconditions can result in supply ...

In a world of tight timelines and ever-increasing performance requirements, it’s critical to create circuit designs right the first time; thus, engineers in the analog and mixed-signal industry often ...

When used with other blocks and modules, a new approach to modeling operational-amplifier output impedance behavior can provide a more realistic overall behavioral model. Simulating the behavior of a ...

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 ...

Operational amplifiers (op amps) may initially look intimidating, but with a bit of study, they can be easily understood and used in a variety of applications. Op amps can be thought of as a perfect ...

Operational amplifiers (op-amps) are almost the perfect amplifiers. As long as you keep a few important details in mind, they will seem perfect. In part 1, I gave a simplified explanation of how an op ...

[Partner Content] We are exposed to EMI everywhere, it is inevitable, but what is the effect of this on operational amplifiers and what can you do about it to prevent this? In this article we explain ...
