Sorry for the imprecise english. It was the ealiest I had found (from TI) and the earliest
I had found that addressed opamp integrated circuits (as a book - I suspect there are
earlier ap notes and notes in data sheets.)

Available anywhere?

I will have ot update my web pages when I can find time. Unfortunately, I've been
extremely busy with other stuff. I did just get a new order of stuff from mouser for:
radio projects, a micro computer project, and syth projects and the weather is cooling off
enough so that I can get into my electronics lab with out running the AC. Since all our
hurricanes, the price of electricity has doubled.

I can imagine the access to libraries and test equipment you have, (sigh, drool . . .) Got
any spectrum analyzers you don't need, that can go for the price of shipping ?-}
