An optimized, basic op amp offers precise sensor-output performance while negating temperature-induced drift and errors.

One of my first jobs as a freshly minted graduate engineer involved the maintenance of a set of analogue chart recorders. They were museum pieces by the early 1990s: a motorized roll of graph paper ...

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 ...

Dallas, Texas — Texas Instruments — introduced a DC-precision, high-speed (1 µsec), precision logarithmic amplifier which computes the logarithm or log-ratio of an input current or voltage relative to ...

It is unlikely that a power operational amplifier will always be employed to drive a purely resistive load. For if that were the case, stability would rarely become a problem. On the other hand, a ...

Modeling the performance of an analog device with SPICE is one of the standard techniques used by circuit designers to perform initial characterization and performance analysis before putting together ...
