Bias Tee - Schematic Only __ Designed by www.gbppr.org
Biasing Op-Amps into Class A - "Class A" refers to configuring an amplifier so that its output devices remain turned on all the time. This reduces thermal variation and eliminates crossover distortion, which makes the chip perform better. To bias an op-amp into class A, you simply put a current source from the op-amp's output to one of the power rails. Everything else is details. This article is about those details __ Designed by contact me 2014 @ tangentsoft.com

Common-Mode Rejection - While real op amps do a fantastic job of rejecting voltages common to both inputs, it's not perfect. A small output results from a change in input common-mode voltage. What causes this output? Due to mismatching in the transistors and resistors of the input stage, the common-mode voltage produces a small differential error voltage at the input terminals.
