Op-Amps

Operational amplifiers, or op-amps, are essential electronic components that amplify voltage signals. Think of an op-amp as a highly sensitive voltage booster; it takes a small input signal and produces a much larger output signal, based on a specific setup. They are used in various applications like audio equipment, filters, and sensors to process and manipulate electrical signals. Op-amps are versatile, stable, and adjustable, making them fundamental building blocks in modern electronics for signal conditioning, amplification, and other tasks.
