I have kept the number of abbreviations used to a minimum. However, those few are used extensively, so a list is given in case they are not all blindingly obvious:
| BJT | Bipolar junction transistor |
| CFP | Complementary feedback pair |
| C/L | Closed loop |
| CM | Common mode |
| CMOS | Complementary metal oxide semiconductor |
| CMRR | Common-mode rejection ratio |
| CTF | Current timing factor |
| DF | Damping factor |
| DIS-PP-VAS | Double Input Stage Push-Pull VAS |
| DSP | Digital signal processing |
| EF | Emitter-follower |
| EFA | Emitter-follower added |
| EIN | Equivalent input noise |
| ESR | Equivalent series resistance |
| FEA | Finite element analysis |
| FET | Field-effect transistor |
| HF | Amplifier behaviour above the dominant pole frequency, where the open-loop ... |
