IC741 Overview
Key Specifications
Package: HTSSOP EP
Mount Type: Surface Mount
Pins: 20
Output Type (varies by manufacturer): Fixed
Key Features
- of modern analog electronics
- The differential amplifier consists of a matched pair of bipolar transistors or FETs
- The push-pull amplifier transmits a large current to the load and hence has a small output impedance
- The op-amp is a linear amplifier with Vout ∝ Vinp
- Cheap IC versions of operational amplifiers are readily available, making their use popular in any analog circuit
- The cheap models operate from DC to about 20 kHz, while the high-performance models operate up to 50 MHz
- A popular device is the 741
