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 ...

Another application that often requires a precision op-amp solution is a multichannel data-acquisition system using multiplexers (MUX). The typical data-acquisition system employs a single ADC ...

Power op amps often use circuits that minimize the number of power-handling components. In many power amps, the output devices may take some 70% of the silicon die area and, thus, bear appreciably ...

There are many articles about non-linear op amps being used as a comparator, but IC vendors caution against this design approach.

Today, three test-circuit topologies are commonly used for bench and production testing of DC parameters in operational amplifiers. These three topologies are 1) the two-operational-amplifier test ...

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 f… ...

Unlike many similar interactive LED matrix displays that are digital in nature (because it’s a lot easier), this design is pure analog, using many, many op-amps.
