AN-584: Using the AD813X Differential Amplifier (pdf, 178,358 bytes)

The AD813x differs from conventional op amps by the external presence of an additional input and output. The additional input, VOGM, controls the output common mode voltage.

AN-573: OP07 Is Still Evolving (pdf, 159,635 bytes)

AN-501: Aperture Uncertainty and ADC System Performance (pdf, 233,126 bytes)

A Key Concern in IF Sampling is that of Aperture Uncertainty (Jitter)

AN-417: Fast Rail-to-Rail Operational Amplifiers Ease Design Constraints in Low Voltage High Speed Systems (pdf, 234,127 bytes)

Movement towards lower power supply voltages is driven by the demand that systems consume less and less power coupled with the desire to reduce the number of power supply voltages in the system. The following applications are discussed: Single-Ended and Differential Input ADC Input Circuits, Video Line Driver, Active Filter, HDSL Transceiver, and Transformer Drive Circuits.

AN-410: Overcoming Converter Nonlinearities with Dither (pdf, 117,930 bytes)

AN-402: Replacing Output Clamping Op Amps with Input Clamping Amps (pdf, 57,313 bytes)

So far most clamping amplifiers have relied upon an output clamping architecture and are called output clamp amps (OCAs). A new architecture called an input clamp amp (ICA) offers superior clamping accuracy and lower distortion.

AB-112: Single Resistor Controls Wien Bridge Oscillator Frequency (pdf, 19,329 bytes)

Frequency control can be added to the conventional Wien Bridge Circuit by adding an op amp inverter.

AB-111: Single-Supply Wien Bridge Oscillator (pdf, 67,923 bytes)

Wien Bridge Oscillators require only one op amp, important in battery-operation. This circuit operates from a single 9V battery.

AB-109: High Speed Precision Rectifier (pdf, 25,241 bytes)

The low offsets and excellent load driving capability of the OP-27 are key advantages in this precision rectifier circuit.
