Synopsis

Op Amps for Everyone is an indispensable guide and reference for designing circuits that are reliable, have low power consumption, and are as small and low-cost as possible. Operational amplifiers are essential in modern electronics design, and are used in medical devices, communications technology, optical networks, and sensor interfacing. This book is informed by the authors' years of experience, wisdom and expertise, giving engineers all the methods, techniques and tricks that they need to optimize their analog electronic designs. With this book you will learn: Single op amp designs that get the most out of every amplifier Which specifications are of most importance to your design, enabling you to narrow down the list of amplifiers to those few that are most suitable Strategies for making simple "tweaks" to the design - changes that are often apparent once a prototype has been constructedHow to design for hostile environments - extreme temperatures, high levels of shock, vibration, and radiation - by knowing what circuit parameters are likely to degrade and how to counteract that degradation New to this edition: Unified design procedures for gain and offset circuits, and filter circuitsTechniques for voltage regulator designInclusion of design utilities for filter design, gain and offset, and voltage regulationAnalysis of manufacturer design aids Companion website with downloadable material

About this title

Review:

Want a circuit design to plug into your circuit? This book is for you, giving real world, workable designs, using components that are readily available from today’s distributors.

From the Back Cover:

This book will help you design circuits that are reliable, have low power consumption and can be implemented in as small a size as possible, at the lowest possible cost. It bridges the gap between the theoretical and the practical by giving practical solutions using components that are available in the real world from component distributors. It does not just give a design with a transfer function but gives design tools based on that transfer function, getting you to a working circuit, bill of materials, and even board layout.

With this book you will learn:

• Single op amp designs that get the most out of every amplifier
• Which specifications are of most importance to your design, enabling you to narrow down the list of amplifiers to those few that are most suitable
• Strategies for making simple "tweaks" to the design – changes that are often apparent once a prototype has been constructed
• How to design for hostile environments – extreme temperatures, high levels of shock, vibration, and radiation – by knowing what circuit parameters are likely to degrade and how to counteract that degradation

New to this edition:

• Unified design procedures for gain and offset circuits, and filter circuits
• Techniques for voltage regulator design
• Inclusion of design utilities for filter design, gain and offset, and voltage regulation
• Analysis of manufacturer design aids
• Companion website with downloadable material
