STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Saturation Voltage = +Supply Voltage of Op Amp-Small Voltage Drop
Vsat = +Vcc-Vdrop
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Saturation Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Saturation Voltage is a condition where the output of the trigger remains low even when the input voltage is above the lower threshold voltage.
Supply Voltage of Op Amp - (Measured in Volt) - Supply Voltage of Op Amp is an important factor because it determines the input and output voltage ranges of the op-amp.
Small Voltage Drop - (Measured in Volt) - A Small Voltage Drop is an operational amplifier that has a very small voltage drop between its input and output terminals.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Supply Voltage of Op Amp: 3.1 Volt --> 3.1 Volt No Conversion Required
Small Voltage Drop: 1.9 Volt --> 1.9 Volt No Conversion Required

How can the positive saturation voltage of an op-amp be minimized?

There are a few ways to minimize the positive saturation voltage of an op-amp:

Choose an op-amp with a low positive saturation voltage. Some op-amps are specifically designed to have a low positive saturation voltage. These op-amps are often called "rail-to-rail output" op-amps.
Use a higher supply voltage. The positive saturation voltage of an op-amp is typically about 1 volt lower than the supply voltage. Therefore, using a higher supply voltage will also increase the positive saturation voltage.
