The operational amplifier, or op amp, is one of the most basic building blocks used in analog circuits. Ever since single-chip op amps were introduced in the 1960s, thousands of different types ...

Circuit simulations are great because you ... The op amp — short for operational amplifier — is a packaged differential amplifier. The ideal op amp — which we can’t get — has infinite ...

You need a TVS diode because many voltage regulators do not have the ability to sink current, nor can they respond fast ...

Despite the monolithic op amp being older than SPICE simulators, comprehensive op-amp SPICE modeling left a lot to be desired ...
