If you're looking for information on a specific topic like the integrator circuit, you might find:
Before the PDF, use free simulation software (LTspice, Tina-TI, or Multisim). Set up an AC analysis of a 741 model. Plot the open-loop gain. Change the closed-loop gain from 1 to 10 to 100. Observe how the bandwidth shrinks exactly as predicted by the formula on page 124. This is the heart of the book

The value of the Schmitt trigger extends far beyond a textbook exercise. It is used to: The difference between these two thresholds is defined
This is the heart of the text for many students. It covers the "classic" Op-Amp configurations in depth:
A basic comparator without feedback has a single reference voltage ((V_ref)). When (V_in) exceeds (V_ref), the output swings to (+V_sat); when (V_in) falls below (V_ref), the output swings to (-V_sat). In theory, this is clean. In practice, if (V_in) is a noisy signal or changes very slowly around (V_ref), the op-amp will see multiple threshold crossings, causing the output to flip back and forth erratically. The solution lies not in removing noise, but in creating two distinct threshold voltages—one for the rising edge of the input and another for the falling edge. the output changes state
The Schmitt trigger circuit, as analyzed by Gayakwad, introduces positive feedback by feeding a fraction of the output voltage ((\beta \cdot V_out)) back to the non-inverting (+) input. The inverting (-) input receives the input signal. Using voltage division, the voltage at the non-inverting terminal ((V_+)) becomes dependent on both the reference voltage and the present output state.
This arrangement creates two distinct trip points:
The difference between these two thresholds is defined as the hysteresis width ((V_H = UTP - LTP)). Once the input crosses the UTP, the output changes state, and the threshold automatically shifts down to the LTP. This prevents the output from switching again until the input drops significantly below the original crossing point.
