Op Amp Applications Handbook

Preface

Op Amp Applications Handbook is another book on the operational amplifier, or op amp. As the name implies, it covers the application of op amps, but does so on a broader scope. Thus it would be incorrect to assume that this book is simply a large collection of app notes on various devices, as it is far more than that. Any IC manufacturer in existence since the 1960s has ample application data on which to draw. In this case, however, Analog Devices, Inc. has had the benefit of applications material with a history that goes back beyond early IC developments to the preceding period of solid-state amplifiers in modular form, with links to the even earlier era of vacuum tube op amps and analog computers, where the operational amplifier began. ...
