&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A primer on ideal op amps&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;An intuitive model of real op amps&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Using LTspice simulations to explore key op amp parameters and their impact on various circuits:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Including a demonstration of complex op amp macromodels compared to the universal op amp model available in LTspice&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Using the universal op amp model to troubleshoot circuit simulation issues&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A demonstration of other design tools to aid your understanding&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Plus, there will be a&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;live Q&amp;A&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;at the end of the session. This is your chance to have all your LTspice questions answered by the experts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
