Working Principles

The MAX384CWN is an operational amplifier (op-amp) that amplifies and conditions input signals. It operates by using a differential input stage to amplify the voltage difference between the inverting and non-inverting inputs. The amplified signal is then further processed and outputted through a single-ended output.
