You can take an op amp with rare input characteristics and elevate it to achieve higher voltage range, better gain accuracy, higher slew rate, and less distortion than the original op amp. I was ...

Now, it's time to learn a new one. Here is the meaning and how to use the slang "OP". There are two definitions for and ways to use the slang term "OP." First is "OP" means "original poster." ...

To allow the comparison of different op-amps in a headphone amplifier, [Stephan Martin] has created a stereo amplifier board complete with sockets to take single or dual op-amp chips. The circuit ...

It’s still possible to make switching regulators from first principles though, which is what [Aaron Lager] has done by designing a buck regulator from a quad op-amp IC, It’s an entry in our Op ...

The very basics of operational amplifiers. Learn comparator, inverting, and non-inverting op-amp configurations. An operational amplifier, or op amp, is a dc-coupled high-gain electronic ...

Here’s how it works. Keeley has unveiled its brand new Moon Op Amp Fuzz fuzz pedal, inspired in part by David Gilmour’s thick, saturated Pink Floyd tones. Described as a “supermassive destroyer, ...

How do you get the input of an op-amp to work below the negative-most supply rail?, I asked. Now I know – thanks to the patience of ADI field application engineer Andreas Koch. It was not just any ...

In 1978, EHX briefly switched the design of its Big Muff Pi from its traditional four-transistor circuitry over to a design based around the more cost-effective op amps (integrated circuits) and with ...

TI claims to have produced the industry’s smallest op amp and low-power comparators at 0.64 mm2. As the first amplifiers in the X2SON package, the TLV9061 op amp and TLV7011 family of comparators ...

In Part 1, we reviewed the low frequency behavior of the HCNR200 circuit, and obtained the stability conditions ... First, ω c is 2π times GBW of an Op Amp. This is usually a large number about from ...
