Operational Amplifiers

This is lab 3 of 4 in the course

by Quanser Inc., and Texas Instruments

Students are introduced to the operational amplifier as a core component of analog electronic design. They will explore the behavior of the operational amplifier, comparing ideal vs non-ideal models as well as different operational amplifier topologies: inverting & non-inverting; summing & difference; and integrating
