Touchstone Semiconductor announced that it has added two new, micropower operational amplifiers (op amps) to its “NanoWatt Analog™” high-performance analog integrated circuits portfolio: the TS1003 ...

The migration to lower supply voltages, along with the strong desire among OEMs for a universal operational amplifier, has led to a rash of new op amps with rail-to-rail I/O capabilities. Analog ...

Two high-speed, voltage-feedback op amps from Micrel — MIC920 and MIC921 — provide an order of magnitude improvement in the ratio of slew rate-to-power consumption, compared with competing devices ...

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 have ...

Intersil’s family of power-efficient operational amplifiers and comparators include rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, and feature a single-polarity supply current. This family, part of Intersil’s ...

Microchip’s MCP6411 operational amplifier can operate with a single supply voltage as low as 1.7V, while drawing 55μA quiescent current (max). Called MCP6411, input offset is ±1.0mV max, and both ...

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 ...

Power operational amplifiers (POPs) are becoming increasingly common in control circuitry. Their primary advantages over conventional amplifiers are reduced part counts, increased reliability, and ...
