Operational amplifiers (op amps) play many different roles in optimizing the performance of mixed signal system design. Today’s mixed signal designer is challenged to understand the requirements of ...

With both current and voltage feedback operational amplifiers (op amps) available to the system designer, how do you select which device to use? This two-part article discusses applications most ...

Sponsored by: Texas Instruments. Op amps solve most problems in analog circuit design—if you know how to use them. Here are some resources to help expand your op-amp knowledge base. Whenever you need ...

Maybe you are familiar with the op-amp as an extremely versatile component, and you know how to quickly construct a huge variety of circuits with one. Maybe you even have a favorite op-amp or two for ...

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 subject rarely found in circuit design textbooks is the matter of nonlinear junction capacitance, especially reverse-bias junction capacitance, also called depletion capacitance. When it is ...
