Q
If we use supply rails of +5V and 0V on the AD817 op amp, will the output swingdown to 0V.
A
The o/p head head room requirement from the supply rails can be a maximum of1.8 Volts from the rails - therefore using 0V as the VE rail may only allow you
to swing to 1.8 Volts. In order to swing down to zero, you need dual +/-5 Volt
supplies.
