Operational Amplifiers (Op Amps)
The operational amplifier (op amp) is an important part of any analog signal chain, often working as a crucial part of the interface between sensors and our world-leading ADCs. Common analog op amp functions include gain, buffering, filtering, and level-shifting. Analog Devices’ portfolio provides the broadest choice of op amps in the industry, delivering unmatched quality, robustness, and performance to enable optimized solutions in automotive, industrial, consumer, and healthcare markets.
