LinearLinear integrated circuits (ICs) are electronic devices that consist of several transistors, resistors, and other components that are connected together in a linear arrangement to perform a specific function. Unlike digital ICs, which use a binary system of ones and zeros to perform operations, linear ICs operate in a continuous range of values, allowing them to perform more complex tasks such as amplification, filtering, and signal processing. Some common examples of linear ICs include operational amplifiers (op amps), analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), and voltage regulators. These devices are widely used in a variety of applications, including audio and video equipment, medical devices, and telecommunications systems.
