The initials, IC, simply mean that the op-amp is made inside an integrated circuit. Op-amps have a total of 8 pins, and out of those 8 pins, 1 is inactive( pin no. 8) and 7 are active. 4 of the pins (2, 3, 4, and 7) supply the output, and one of the pins (pin 6) observes the output. So 7 means 7 active pins, 4 means 4 inputs, and 1 means 1 output.

How ic 741 works?
A 741 Op-amp has three distinct parts and applications. They are a differential amplifier, a voltage amplifier, and an output amplifier.
The "741" in "microampere 741" refers to an operational amplifier IC produced by Texas Instruments. It is a popular and widely used chip that is commonly referenced by its part number. "Microampere" refers to the input bias current specification of the 741 op-amp, highlighting its low input current requirements.
The IC 741 operational amplifier has several disadvantages, including a limited bandwidth and slow slew rate, which restrict its performance in high-frequency applications. It also has relatively low input impedance and high output impedance compared to modern op-amps, leading to signal loading issues. Additionally, the IC 741 exhibits a relatively high offset voltage, which can affect precision applications. Lastly, its power supply range is limited, making it less versatile for various circuit designs.
High gain high input impedance low output impedance
In ua741 ua stands for nothing it is just the name of the ic ... Like every person have a name it similar to that one .UA is to show that the ic is manufactured by Fairchild. It is actually μa.
An operational amplifier (op-amp) is a high-gain electronic voltage amplifier. The 741 IC type op-amp is a small scale integrated circuit. There is no actual reason for it be called 741, the number is an arbitrary designator assigned simply to make it possible to identify the part and look it up in a databook. The number was originally assigned as a member of the 7xx series of SSI bipolar analog integrated circuits in the middle 1960s, 741 was probably just the next unassigned number available.
Sir: You can't know. The technical specification for OP Amps is not marked on the OP Amp chip. You need to consult an IC Master book or search the internet for "Op amps" and find one that will cover the frequencies you need covered. Then you have to find a supplier. Some libraries have an IC master. Luck
Nobody invented the op-amp but manufactures decided that an amplifier can be more efficient as opposed to building the same amplifier out of discreet components
LM324 is a 14pin IC consisting of four independent operational amplifiers (op-amps) compensated in a single package. Op-amps are high gain electronic voltage amplifier with differential input and, usually, a single-ended output. The output voltage is many times higher than the voltage difference between input terminals of an op-amp.These op-amps are operated by a single power supply LM324and need for a dual supply is eliminated. They can be used as amplifiers, comparators, oscillators, rectifiers etc. The conventional op-amp applications can be more easily implemented with LM324.
When the feedback of the output terminal of an Op-Amp is given to the non-inverting terminal [pin 3 for IC-741] of that Op-Amp , then , that circuit is called non-inverting amplifier using Op-Amp. This circuit is called non-inverting because the output signal of this circuit is in phase with the input signal.
