Offering an economical drop-in replacement for alternative parts, Diodes Inc.’s variant of the industry-standard TLC271 programmable operational amplifier provides a bias-selection pin that enables ...

The operational amplifier is arguably the most useful single device in analog electronic circuitry. When you apply them in the circuits, you must know their basics and functions. As for the function ...

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., ...

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.

Current‐mode amplifiers have emerged as a highly efficient alternative to traditional voltage‐mode systems, particularly in high frequency and low power electronic applications. Their ability to ...

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 ...

In the first article about measurement systems we looked at sensors as a way to bring data into a measurement system. I explained that a sensor measures physical quantities which are turned into a ...

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 ...

Differential amplifier circuits, such as the one illustrated in Figure 1, are required in analogue technology for a wide variety of applications. One example is measurement technology in which, ...
