Operational Amplifiers and Linear ICs Author:David A. Bell Beginning with a description of the basic operational amplifier circuit, the voltage follower, noninverting amplifier, and inverting amplifier are explained. Op-amp characteristics and parameters are investigated, and frequency compensation is treated thoroughly, emphasising the use of the manufacturer's recommended compensating components.... more » Practical examples throughout show how easy it is to design (Bipolar and BIFET ) op-amps into a wide variety of practical circuits. Objectives are listed at the start of each chapter. End-of-chapter review questions and problems are included. Laboratory exercises using circuits designed in the text are offered at chapter ends.« less
