Operational Amplifiers (Op Amps)

Linear Technology manufactures a broad line of high performance operational amplifiers (op amps) each one designed for the unexpected. Fully specified
over temperature, look to Linear for signal conditioning solutions when performance matters.  Amplifier product families include high speed amplifiers,
precision amplifiers, low noise amplifiers, and micropower amplifiers as well as special function amplifiers such as current sense, programmable gain and differential high speed analog to digital converter (ADC) drivers.

Comparators

Linear Technology specializes in high speed comparators and micropower comparators that offer simple, flexible features such as split input and output
supplies, Over-the-Top inputs, integrated references and compact packages. Our high speed comparator products offer propagation delays as fast as 7ns.  Our micropower comparator product line offers supply currents as low as 300nA while still offering excellent precision and innovative features.

Voltage References

Linear Technology offers a broad line of series and shunt precision voltage references. Shunt voltage references operate in a manner that is functionally
equivalent to a Zener diode.  Series voltage references operate in a manner that is functionally equivalent to a 3 terminal regulator.  Many of Linear Technology’s voltage references are designed to operate in either series or shunt mode.  All of our products offer excellent initial accuracy and low drift
over time and temperature. Linear Technology's "Reference+" parts combine precision voltage references with comparators or amplifiers.

RMS-DC Conversion

RMS-to-DC conversion is the truest way to measure the energy contained in an AC waveform.  RMS to DC conversion is the truest way to measure the energy contained in an AC waveform. Linear Technology's simple, true RMS-to-DC converters use an innovative delta-sigma computational technique that features high linearity and accuracy suitable for a wide variety of AC measurement applications.

Thermocouple Compensators

CJC devices use curvature correction circuitry to match the "bow" found in all thermocouples, providing accurate cold junction compensation over a wide temperature range.

Switched Cap Building Blocks

Linear Technology's family of switched capacitor building blocks provide a unique method of sampling and amplifying low level differential signals with excellent
CMRR and precision.

Signal Chain µModule

The signal chain modules use a System-in-Package (SiP) technology similar to multi-chip modules (MCM) to integrate components with different technologies
along with passive components to make an integrated subsystem. The micromodule (µModule) receivers consist of high-performance, high-speed ADCs with
fixed-gain, high-speed amplifiers and anti-alias filters. The integrated ADC + driver products include integrated bypass capacitance and simplify the high
frequency layout required to preserve the AC performance. The board space savings are significant for instrumentation applications such as spectrum
analyzers, oscilloscopes (oscillographs) and communications test equipment or for communications applications such as high sensitivity receivers, software
defined radio (SDR) or signal intelligence receivers.
