Circuit simulations are great because you can experiment with circuits and make changes with almost no effort. In Circuit VR, we look at circuits using a simulator to do experiments without having to ...

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 ...

Op amps. Often the first thing that many learn about when beginning the journey into analog electronics, they’re used in countless ways in an overwhelmingly large array of circuits. When we think ...

In the last column (Simulating op amp noise) I showed how to do simple and fast simulations on op amp circuits to get a handle on what kind of noise performance to expect. As can be expected with any ...

Current-feedback (CFB) op amps have earned their reputation in many applications that need bandwidth, without compromising other noise and high-speed characteristics. They have served these needs ...

So…LTspice of the K2-W Op Amp Reveals the Mad Scientists’ Fingerprints (Part 3) LTspice simulation of the K2-W Vacuum Tube Op Amp’s design reveals the mad ...

Delivering many improved major specs over traditional LM324 op-amps, but with rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, STMicroelectronics has introduced a 6MHz all-rounder op-amp family that will operate from ...

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 ...

These new products offer a low input offset voltage, low noise, and high slew rate. Rail-to-Rail input/output capability ...
