"Linear Integrated Circuits and Applications" by U A Bakshi is a comprehensive textbook that provides a detailed coverage of linear ICs and their applications. The book's relevance to the field of electronics, electrical engineering, and embedded systems makes it an essential resource for students and professionals. With its clear explanations, examples, and applications, this book is a valuable addition to any electronics engineer's library.
The content is often organized by units, aligning well with engineering curricula (e.g., Anna University syllabus).
The Op-Amp Foundation. Focus on Chapters 1 & 2. Master the ideal characteristics. Solve the 10 basic numerical problems on ( V_out ) calculation for inverting amps. Do not skip the "DC Imperfections" (Input bias current and offset voltage)—this is a favorite viva question.
