Basic Operational Amplifiers And Linear Integrated Circuits

This book offers comprehensive coverage of a wide, relevant array of operational amplifier topics. KEY TOPICS: The book integrates theory, practical circuits, and troubleshooting concepts, keeping mathematical details to a minimum. Delving more deeply into coverage of operational amplifiers, the book guides readers through a system of pedagogical tools that both reinforces and challenges their understanding. An essential reference in electronic technology.

"In this fifth edition, we not only have kept the standard 741 op amp but also have shown many circuits with newer, readily available op amps because these have largely overcome the dc and ac limitations of the older types. We preserved or objective of simplifying the process of learning about applications involving signal conditioning, signal generation, filters, instrumentation, and control circuits. But we have oriented this fifth edition to reflect the evolution of analog circuits into those applications whose purpose is to condition signals from transducers or other sources into form suitable for presentation to a microcontroller or computer. In addition, we have added examples of circuit simulation using PSpice throughout this edition."--Introduction.

The goal of this book is to encourage the reader to become proficient in the analysis and design of circuits utilizing modern linear integrated circuits. It progresses from the fundamental circuit building blocks through to analog and digital conversion systems. A methodical step-by-step presentation introduces the basic idealized operational amplifiers and eventually examines practical limitations in great detail. Each chapter has a problem set and contains extended topic to present extra discussion and details about the subject.

This accurate and easy-to-understand book presents readers with the basic principles of operational amplifiers and integrated circuits--with a very practical approach.. A large number of examples, questions, problems, and practical circuit applications make it a valuable reference guide. Chapter topics include an introduction to, frequency response and negative feedback of op-amps--along with interpretation of data sheets and characteristics. Also covered are active filters and oscillators, comparators and converters, specialized IC applications and system projects. .For professional design engineers, technologists, and technicians, with self-study interests, who need the ability to adapt to changing technology as new devices appear on the market.

Through detailed explanations, and mathematics accessible to technology-level readers, this book establishes methods for analyzing, modeling, and predicting performance of op-amps and linear integrated circuits. KEY TOPICS: It includes the common circuit configurations and devices to be used with these circuits. Also includes: Oscillators and waveform generators; analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog coversion; computer software analysis; operational amplifier DC effects and limitations, and more.

This work examines and illustrates four basic active filters, 5-V digital logic ICs, and much more. It introduces a simple procedure for designing any linear circuit, and includes new material on PSpice simulations.
