In 2008, Kendall Castor-Perry began an extended investigation into the effect that bypass capacitor selection has on analog circuit performance. Five years on, we’re re-posting this classic series, ...

A traditional implementation of an absolute-difference function comprises a difference circuit followed by an absolute-value circuit; the entire circuit requires at least three op amps. The design ...

The term rail-to-rail refers to the ability of an op amp to achieve an output or input that can vary over the full range of the dc supply voltages. This feature is realized with CMOS circuits. For ...

ROHM Semiconductor today announced the development of the TLR1901GXZ, an ultra-compact CMOS operational amplifier (op amp) that achieves the industry’s lowest operating circuit current. Optimized 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 ...

Circuit simulations are great because you can experiment with circuits and make changes with almost no effort. In Circuit VR, we look at circuits using a simulator to do experiments without having to ...

In the world of audiophilia there are arguments that rage over the relative merits of particular components. Sometimes this can reach silly levels as in the high-end ALPS pot we once saw chosen as a ...

ROHM Co., Ltd. has announced that its ultra-compact CMOS Operational Amplifier (op amp) TLR1901GXZ achieves the industry's lowest operating circuit current (*1). This IC is optimized to be applied as ...
