It might seem odd to include a section on voltage references in a book devoted primarily to op amp applications, but the relevance will shortly become obvious. Unfortunately, there is little ...

You can take an op amp with rare input characteristics and elevate it to achieve higher voltage range, better gain accuracy, higher slew rate, and less distortion than the original op amp. I was ...

Current-feedback (CFB) op amps have earned their reputation in many applications that need bandwidth, without compromising other noise and high-speed characteristics. They have served these needs ...

Another important op amp application is buffering DAC outputs. Modern IC DACs provide either voltage or current outputs. Figure 3-51 shows three fundamental configurations, all with the objective of ...
