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 ...

Op amps are the basic building blocks for much of linear circuit design. You probably learned about them in college and even designed some products containing an op amp. As an electronic engineer ...

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.
