A new family of power-efficient, rail-to-rail input/output op amps and comparators from Intersil Corp. includes the ISL28194, which features a supply current rating of 330nA typical and 450nA maximum.

Previous installments of this series discussed the need to verify SPICE model accuracy and how to measure the output impedance and small-signal bandwidth of operational amplifier (op amp) models. In ...

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 ...

Cirrus Logic Inc. is expanding its popular and versatile Apex Precision Power® booster product family with a new dual-channel booster amplifier, the PB63. With a 1,000 V/µs slew rate and 1 MHz of ...

With its power-saving mode, the LMV422 operational amplifier lets designers reduce power consumption while maintaining an active circuit. Thus, there's faster turn-on times in smoke detectors and ...
