Dumbest "equivalent schematic" from a datasheet - how many errors can you find?

I thought I was the only one!

TI have got to be the worst culprit - I swear they use unpaid interns to write their datasheets. The last one I noticed had a suggested value of 2k in place of what was meant to be 2R in the application circuits section.

Doesn’t anyone senior proofreads a datasheet?  :-\

Of course, high DC gain and positive feedback at AC, how could I miss it :-DD

That's why it isn't right to report errors past a certain threshold of severity.
The datasheet says as much about the manufacturer as about the product itself.
Other customers deserve to know >:D

BTW, check out the schematic in OP07 datasheet from the same guys.
Been that way since 2014 apparently and no one cares.
dmills:
Given that TI appear to have forgotten how to make chips, there may well be nobody there who still understands how to read a schematic!

I have a TI regulator in a design that only started working after I added two mysterious extra resistors found on the app note circuit (but nowhere on the datasheet!), most unimpressed.

Where are the Pease/Williams/Widlar trained ones?
MegaVolt:
The AD8367 inverts the signal. There is no mention of this in the datasheet :(

Figure 3 not correct. Although the article below is correct. I reported the bug 3 years ago :)
