Characteristics and Testing of Operational Amplifiers: Op-Amp Properties and Applications, Lecture notes of Design

An overview of operational amplifiers (op-amps), discussing their properties, testing methods, and applications in mixed-signal testing. Topics include common-mode and differential-mode input voltages, gain, bandwidth, slew rate, output resistance, open-loop gain, and operational-amplifier architectures such as two-stage architecture and D/A converters.
