In my previous article on common op-amp circuits, I mentioned that operational amplifiers were used for analog computing, where analog circuits simulated the behavior of complex systems. That article ...

The linearity of triangular waveforms makes triangular wave generators useful in many “sweep” circuits and test equipment. For example, switched-mode power supplies and induction motor-control ...

A comparator is a great circuit because it provides a near ideal transition between the analog and digital domains. The comparator looks at two linear input signals and gives a digital output that’s ...
