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

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? :-\ |

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. |

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? |

The AD8367 inverts the signal. There is no mention of this in the datasheet :( https://www.ti.com.cn/cn/lit/ug/tiduc87a/tiduc87a.pdf Figure 3 not correct. Although the article below is correct. I reported the bug 3 years ago :) https://e2e.ti.com/blogs_/b/industrial_strength/posts/a-modern-approach-to-solid-state-relay-design |
