Operational Amplifier (OPAMP)

Introduction Operational amplifiers is an essential component in electronic devices. Operational amplifiers (op amps) are incredibly useful high-performance differential amplifiers that can be employed in a number of amazing ways. A typical op amp is an integrated device with a non-inverting input, an inverting input, two dc power supply lead...

Filters

Introduction In electronics, unwanted noise always exists. To avoid misoperation, noises must be attenuated by filters. In real world, RC filter is commonly used for reducing high-frequency noises. Let’s look around various filter types. Terminology -3dB Frequency (\(f_{3dB}\)) This represents the input frequency that causes the output signal...

Differential Equation

Introduction In mathematics, a differential equation is an equation that relates one or more unknown functions and their derivatives. In applications, the functions generally represent physical quantities, the derivatives represent their rates of change, and the differential equation defines a relationship between the two. Mainly the study of di...
