Today’s circuit designers usually will need to design with analog circuitry on their boards, even if the core circuitry is Processor-based or a power supply design, MEMS/sensor or such. The problem is ...

Op amps are the basic building blocks for much of linear circuit design. You probably learned about them in college and even designed some products containing an op amp. As an electronic engineer, you ...

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 ...

Editor's note: I (Steve Taranovich) visited Linear Technology Corp. earlier this year and met Bob Dobkin, one of the founders of the company. After interviewing Mr. Dobkin for an article I was writing ...
