Former EDN analog editor Bill Schweber has published a good article from Tamara Schmitz and Jian Wong about developing Spice macromodels for voltage-feedback op-amps. Part 1 (pdf), and part 2 (pdf).
When used with other blocks and modules, a new approach to modeling operational-amplifier output impedance behavior can provide a more realistic overall behavioral model. Simulating the behavior of a ...
Editor’s note: My good friend and long-time colleague, Michael Steffes, expands upon my introduction article, Rauch filter basics, and adds some very useful and practical insights into the Rauch ...
In the last Circuit VR we looked at some basic op amp circuits in a simulator, including the non-inverting amplifier. Sometimes you want an amplifier that inverts the signal. That is a 5V input ...
The K2-W vacuum-tube op amp has an LTspice-simulated open loop gain of 27,000. The modeled K2-W input impedance is >100 MΩ. The LTspice modeled result shows 1.00 nA of input current. Early SPICE ...
The operational amplifier, or op amp, is one of the most basic building blocks used in analog circuits. Ever since single-chip op amps were introduced in the 1960s, thousands of different types have ...
