Over the last 5 years some outstanding advances have been made in monolithic operational amplifiers. These devices have progressed from the point where they were an expensive curiosity, with marginal ...

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 ...

Op-amps are among the most widely used electronic devices, and are designed into many consumer, industrial, and scientific devices. General purpose, standard op amps sell for well under one dollar.

Fundamental analog devices that serve applications such as high-resolution delta-sigma or SAR (successive-approximation-register) converter systems are feeling the crunch from amplifiers that have ...

High performance with low power consumption: this requirement is coming to bear in more and more applications, especially when it comes to mobile, battery-operated devices. Particularly in the times ...

The term instrumentation amplifier (INA) often is misused, referring to the application rather than the architecture of the device. Historically, any amplifier that was considered precision (i.e., ...
