Linear and Digital Integrated Circuits Design. 1st Edition 2023

What makes linear integrated circuits different from digital integrated circuits?

A continuous range of values may be present in both the inputs and outputs of a linear integrated circuit, and the outputs are frequently proportional to the inputs. Circuits with only low or high voltages allowed for input and output are used in digital integrated circuits.

Binary values (0 and 1) are discrete signals that are dealt with by digital integrated circuits. These circuits use flip-flops, multiplexers, digital logic gates, and other elements. The construction of these circuits is less complicated, and they are more economical. Linear integrated circuits (Linear ICs) and radio frequency integrated circuits (RF ICs) are the two different types of integrated circuits.

Circuits that have been integrated An analogue integrated circuit is deemed linear if its voltage and current follow a linear trajectory. The 8-pin Dual In-line Package (DIP)op-amp IC 741 is an example of a linear integrated circuit (IC).
