Linear Integrated Circuits As Sensor Amplifiers PDF Download

An analog chip is a set of miniature electronic analog circuits formed on a single piece of semiconductor material. The voltage and current at specified points in the circuits of analog chips vary continuously in time. In contrast, digital chips only use and create voltages or currents at discrete levels, with no intermediate values. In addition to Transistors, analog chips often have a larger number of passive elements than digital chips typically do. Inductors tend to be avoided because of their large size and a transistor and capacitor together can do the work of an inductor. The book broadly deals with: Direct and capacitor coupled Opamp amplifiers; Frequency response and compensation to improve the performance of Opamp circuits; Voltage and current sources, instrumentation amplifiers and precision rectifiers, limiting and clamping circuits; Log and antilog amplifiers, etc. The book covers the syllabus prescribed for B.E. Care is taken to develop the subject logically so that the book could also be used by B.Sc. and diploma students. Neatly drawn diagrams, stepwise illustrations, and graded numerical examples, are included in every chapter to support the contents.
