Product Description
OP Amps deliberately straddles that imaginary line between the technician and engineering worlds. Topics are carefully addressed on three levels: operational overview, numerical analysis, and design procedures. Troubleshooting techniques are presented that rely on the application of fundamental electronics principles. Systematic methods are shown that can be used to diagnose defects in many kinds of circuits that employ operational amplifiers.
One of the book's greatest strengths is the easy-to-read conversational
writing style. The author speaks directly to the student in a manner that encourages learning. This book explains the technical details of operational amplifier circuits in clear and understandable language without sacrificing technical depth.
Easy-to-read conversational style communicates procedures an technical details in simple language.
Three levels of technical material: operational overview, manericall analysis, and design procedures.
Mathematics limited to algebraic manipulation.

Reader ReviewsYou don't need to look very hard to find some good examples in this book.The author has done a great job with the layout in the book.The methods for design and component selection are excellent.The math is always there, but not overly difficult.Some chapters I have skiped over, while others I have read 3 or 4 times.The approach the author takes to constructing active filters takes minimal effort with reasonable results for any design.Troubleshooting op-amp circuits is not always easy, but David Terrell explains details from the manufacturer data sheets which commonly fail amoung alot of the different families of op-amps. Some of the technical points are brief, but are helpful in all cases where your using them.I buy alot of engineering books each year.There's no myth or magic when designing with op-amps, but everthing you wanted to know is here.
