For today's growing market of electronic devices, higher performance op amps are in constant demand. Higher bandwidth, lower power, and greater accuracy are a few of the major parameters that are ...

A few months ago, I wrote a Signal Chain Basics article titled “3 considerations when selecting an op amp.” While that article is very useful for selecting operational amplifiers (op amps) for new ...

It’s rare in 2023 for an instrument to be entirely analog, instead it’s more normal for a front-end to feed the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) in a microcontroller. Typically the front-end will do ...

With over 35 years of refinement, op amps are a staple of analog designers. Have we reached the limit of what can be done with monolithic op amps? For many applications, IC op amps are clearly the ...

Switching regulators have delivered such convenience and efficiency compared to their linear siblings, that it’s now becoming rare to see an old-style three-terminal regulator. Modern designs have ...

Power operational amplifiers (POPs) are becoming increasingly common in control circuitry. Power operational amplifiers (POPs) are becoming increasingly common in control circuitry. Their primary ...

Op-amp performance is disrupted by EMI in a variety of ways. Reducing EMI in amplifiers using filters. How to mitigate EMI in Class-D audio amps. In this article, electromagnetic interference (EMI) ...
