If you’ve ever wondered why an op amp has the little plus and minus symbols on it, its because at the heart of it, the device is a differential amplifier. The problem is that — ideally,… ...

How do you get the input of an op-amp to work below the negative-most supply rail?, I asked. Now I know – thanks to the patience of ADI field application engineer Andreas Koch. It was not just any ...
At least two classic ways exist to address applications requiring sampling of a sum of analog voltages. The most common way is to cascade a classic analog adder and a sample-and-hold amplifier. A ...
There were real-world curveballs, of course, not least of which was running out of the 10k resistors used for input averaging.
1. The JFETs in this voltage-controller amplifier act as linear resistors because the op amp constrains their drain-to-source voltages to a few tenths of a volt.
