In the last Circuit VR we looked at some basic op amp circuits in a simulator, including the non-inverting amplifier. Sometimes you want an amplifier that inverts the signal. That is a 5V input ...

Op amps excel at providing many useful and clever solutions to routine or complicated circuit functions. A summing circuit is a perfect example. A summing circuit is typically used in applications ...

In a balanced op-amp circuit, the op-amp inputs see equal impedances looking into the circuit. Balanced circuits provide better performance by cancelling some input errors and have a simple R F /R I ...

The 74AVC16244 is a JEDEC standard compliant 16-bit non-inverting buffer/line driver. This 48-pin integrated circuit (IC) supports a wide supply voltage ranging from 1.2 V to 3.6 V with low power ...

I’m not just going to tell you the answer right away. There were various things to notice in analyzing this circuit. Each of the important aspects are worth some points along the way, although the ...
