This article showcases the advantages of an op amp loop-stability analysis method that I use myself and recommend to others. This method looks at the behavior and rate of closure of the open-loop gain ...

After my last Signal Chain Basics article, The basics of op amp loop-stability analysis: A tale of twin loop-gains, I received questions about how to generate the open-loop SPICE simulation curves ...

In a balanced op-amp circuit, the op-amp inputs see equal impedances looking into the circuit. Balanced circuits provide better performance by cancelling some input errors and have a simple R F /R I ...

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 ...

In the last Circuit VR we looked at some basic op amp circuits in a simulator, including the non-inverting amplifier. Sometimes you want an amplifier that inverts the signal. That is a 5V input ...

Maybe you are familiar with the op-amp as an extremely versatile component, and you know how to quickly construct a huge variety of circuits with one. Maybe you even have a favorite op-amp or two for ...

b. The gain is set by VCC as the higher the supply voltage, the higher the gain. c. By the value of R3 as this resistor to ground sets the offset bias seen by the op-amp hence the gain. d. By the ...

Software that creates complete layouts for op-amp circuits has been unveiled by California-based Barcelona Design. The analogue circuit firm said its Picasso BOAS11-18 op-amp engine can synthesise ten ...

Comparison of Low-Power Op Amp Characteristics ROHM's TLR1901GXZ ranks among the best in ultra-low current op amps at approximately 45% lower than typical products on the market. Santa Clara, CA and ...
