8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The A741 device is a general-purpose operational amplifier featuring offset-voltage null capability.
The high common-mode input voltage range and the absence of latch-up make the amplifier ideal for voltage-
follower applications. The device is short-circuit protected and the internal frequency compensation ensures
stability without external components. A low value potentiometer may be connected between the offset null
inputs to null out the offset voltage as shown in Figure 11.
The A741C device is characterized for operation from 0C to 70C. The A741M device (obsolete) is
characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of 55C to 125C.
