Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You are designing an audio amplifier circuit for a high-fidelity application. The required slew rate must be greater than 10 V/μs. Describe how you would ensure your op-amp meets this requirement.
💡 Hint: Consider choosing op-amps with specifications that support fast response.
Given an op-amp with a slew rate of 5 V/μs, calculate the maximum change in output voltage achievable within 2 microseconds.
💡 Hint: Review how to calculate changes using the slew rate.
