The LM741 series are general-purpose operational amplifiers which feature improved performance over industry standards like the LM709. They are direct, plug-in replacements for the 709C, LM201, MC1439, and 748 in most applications.

The amplifiers offer many features which make their application nearly foolproof: overload protection on the input and output, no latch-up when the common-mode range is exceeded, as well as freedom from oscillations.

The LM741C is identical to the LM741 and LM741A except that the LM741C has their performance ensured over a 0°C to +70°C temperature range, instead of −55°C to +125°C.

CIRCUIT060013 — Inverting amplifier with T-network feedback circuit

This design inverts the input signal, VIN, and applies a signal gain of 1000 V/V or 60 dB. The inverting amplifier with T-feedback network can be used to obtain a high gain without a small value for R4 or very large values for the feedback resistors.

CIRCUIT060074 — High-side current sensing with comparator circuit

This high-side, current sensing solution uses one comparator with a rail-to-rail input common mode range to create an over-current alert (OC-Alert) signal at the comparator output (COMP OUT) if the load current rises above 1 A. The OC-Alert signal in this implementation is active low. So when the (...)
