Andy recommends favorite resources for basic op amp circuits and includes a portion of TI's AN-20. Test your knowledge with our op amp quiz; answer explanations are included. By 1969, a fledgling ...

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 ...

The operational amplifier is arguably the most useful single device in analog electronic circuitry. When you apply them in the circuits, you must know their basics and functions. As for the function ...

If you have read my first blog, you may have noticed that I really like op amps. My primary expertise lies in designing them, but I’m also intrigued by clever op-amp application circuits. To promote ...

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 ...

Native SPICE elements that accurately replicate an op amp’s real-world behavior were nonexistent. A transconductance sourcing current from the rails and transitioning to a resistive state as the ...

Memristor emulation circuits have emerged as a pivotal component in modern electronics, where their ability to mimic memristive behaviour is essential for bridging the gap between analogue signal ...

It’s rare in 2023 for an instrument to be entirely analog, instead it’s more normal for a front-end to feed the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) in a microcontroller. Typically the front-end will do ...

Explore key insights into miniature circuit breakers, including how they differ from fuses, what selection criteria to consider and their coordination with protective devices for optimal electrical ...
