STMicroelectronics has introduced the TSZ901 operational amplifier, a device designed to deliver exceptional accuracy, speed, ...
Are your jellybeans getting stale? [lcamtuf] thinks so, and his guide to choosing op-amps makes a good case for rethinking what parts you should keep in stock. For readers of a certain vintage, the ...
We analog designers take great pains to make our amplifiers stable when we design them, but there are many situations that cause them to oscillate in the real world. Various types of loads can make ...
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 ...
With the diverse range of op-amp functions available, choosing the right one for each niche element in a mixed-signal design can be tricky. In fact, very often the need for an op amp is not recognized ...
Though sometimes taken for granted, designers shouldn’t overlook the intricacies of voltage- and current-feedback op amps—integral players in the analog and mixed-signal worlds. Op amps amplify tiny ...
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 ...
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 ...
Switzerland-based STMicroelectronics (ST) has announced on March 9 its TSU111H 5V automotive operational amplifier with micro-power current consumption and 150°C operating-temperature capability.
The most common device for the measurement of load, pressure, torque, and even piezo-resistive (low frequency) acceleration is the strain gauge transducer. As a transducer, which converts a measured ...
