±120V Output Precision Op Amp -  Simple shunt regulators provide normal supply levels to the op amp and the external open-loop gain and buffer structure extends the output swing to nearly the high-voltage rails.  Output transistors are protected by current-limiting. __ Linear Technology/Analog Devices App Note, Jun 21, 2011

0A to 2A Current Source -  The LT1995 amplifies the sense resistor drop by 5V/V and subtracts that from VIN, providing an error signal to an LT1880 integrator.  The integrated error drives the PMOSFET as required to deliver the commanded current. __ Linear Technology/Analog Devices App Note, Mar 31, 2010

100dB Range Logarithmic Photodiode Amplifier -  The photodiode current is processed by a form of trans-impedance amplifier   (TIA) that has a logarithmic I to V characteristic.  The VBE of the logging transistor is scaled and offset to properly represent the desired dynamic range.  To prevent temperature variation from affecting the accuracy, another loop is used as a stabilized chip heater for the transistor array. __ Linear Technology/Analog Devices App Note, Jun 21, 2011

1-NiCd Cells Drives Op Amp -  12/05/96 EDN-Design Ideas Low-supply-voltage op amps, such as the LMC6582 and LMC6681 families, feature rail-to-rail I/O with a gain-bandwidth product greater than 1 MHz operating from just 1.8V.  Although impressive, this voltage is not low enough to power these amps using a single alkaline or NiCd/NiMH cell, which have typical voltages of 1.25 to 1.5V.  It is rather tempting to bridge this gap by designing a DC/DC converter Design by Alexander Belousov, Rego Park, NY

3-op-amp state-variable filter perfects the notch -  EDN-Design Ideas 12/15/2014     There are many variants of the state-variable filter, but this one might just have the best notch output  (s).   The usual schematic of a state-variable filter with two inverting integrators is well known.
Curiously, the input signal is almost always connected to the minus input of U1.  Figure 1 is an example with ω0 = 1kHz and Q = 5.   Figure 1  Typical state-variable filter The circuit is known for its versatility, and ability to simultaneously provide low-pass, band-pass, and high-pass outputs.   Gain, center frequency, and Q may be adjusted separately.

40nVpp Noise, 0.05uV/C Drift, Chopped FET Amplifier -  For very high precision low frequency applications, chopping the dc input signal to create an ac signal and then synchronously demodulating the signal to restore the dc value eliminates all static dc errors of the components used.  This is a high gain   (Av=1001) example with excellent low offset voltage and drift with temperature __ Linear Technology/Analog Devices App Note, Mar 16th 2010

741 Op-Amp Tutorial -  What exactly is an OPerational AMPlifier? Let's define what that component is and look at the parameters of this amazing device.  An operational amplifier IC is a solid-state integrated circuit that uses external feedback to control its functions.  It is one of the most versatile devices in all of electronics.  The term 'op-amp' was originally used to describe a chain of high performance dc amplifiers that was used as a basis for the analog type computers of long ago.  The very high gain op-amp IC's our days uses external feedback networks to control responses.  The op-amp without any external devices is called 'open-loop' mode, referring actually to the so-called 'ideal' operational amplifier. __ Designed by Tony van Roon  VA3AVR
