Operational Amplifiers and Linear Integrated Circuits

This book is a bold new approach to teaching about linear integrated circuits from a designer's point of view. The study begins with the basics of the operational amplifier. In a simple and straightforward manner it guides the student to the final equation for the analysis of the op-amp circuit. The book also teaches the student how to use other linear integrated circuits such as the 555 timer, the phase locked loop, the linear and the switching voltage regulators. Key features:complete analysis of op-amp circuits using ideal assumptionseach chapter includes a summary and review section. These two sections will be useful to the students as well as their teachersincludes discussion about designing and practical applications of various op-amp/linear integrated circuitslaboratory exercises at the end of each chapter. The students can complete these with minimal guidance from the instructorincludes a tutorial to pspice circuit analysis program and data sheets in the appendix
