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 ...

Speed is an important parameter that engineers must consider when choosing op amps for their designs. Unfortunately, speed does not come free and usually trades off with power consumption; the faster ...

Some applications, such as test automation, signal conditioning in process control, and instrumentation, require the amplification of small signals. Open-loop gain can be a determining factor in the ...

This time I’ve opened up the way-back machine and unearthed a piece I first published nearly 20 years ago, when I was at the Burr-Brown Corporation. Op-amp compensation is still a topic that surfaces ...
