I have been wondering recently what some of the advantages of multiple opamps in a stage would be. What I mean is like an OPA134 followed by another OPA134, not by a dedicated buffer.
I can only think of a few which is allowing higher order analogue filters, multiple feedback loops, biasing without inducing DC offset I think, loading up a previous stage with a high impedance allowing different choices of capacitors.
What else can people here come up with? Specifically I am wondering about applications in DAC design. I see a lot of DACs where a second opamp is used to convert a signal to single ended, as well as applying additional filtering.
