We saw in the tutorial about Summing Amplifiers that the voltages or signals applied to the multiple inputs of an inverting operational amplifier circuit can be "summed" together to produce a single output, and depending on the amplifiers configuration, inverting or non-inverting...
Monostable circuits can easily be made using discrete components or digital logic gates but monostable circuits can also be constructed using operational amplifiers to create Op-amp Monostable circuits. Op-amp Monostable Multivibrator (one-shot multivibrator) circuits are positi...
The Op-amp comparator compares one analogue voltage level with another analogue voltage level, or some preset reference voltage, VREF and produces an output signal based on this voltage comparison. In other words, the op-amp voltage comparator compares the magnitudes of two volta...
We can conclude our section and look at the Operational Amplifier with the following summary of the different types of Op-amp circuits and their different configurations discussed throughout this op-amp tutorial section. Operational Amplifier General Conditions • The Op...
The Operational Amplifier or Op-amp for short, is a very versatile device that can be used in a variety of different electronic circuits and applications, from voltage amplifiers, to filters, to signal conditioners. But one very simple and extremely useful op-amp circuit based ar...
We have seen that we can connect resistors to a basic operational amplifier to produce various inverting and non-inverting outputs and configurations along with their respective gains. So to make things a little bit easier for all, here is a list of some of the "Basic" Op-amp bui...
In the differentiator amplifier circuit, the position of the capacitor and resistor have been reversed and now the reactance, XC is connected to the input terminal of the inverting amplifier while the resistor, Rƒ forms the negative feedback element across the operational amplif...
The ideal op-amp integrator is an inverting amplifier whose output voltage is proportional to the negative integral of the input voltage thereby simulating mathematical integration. Operational amplifiers can be used as part of a positive or negative feedback amplifier or as an ...
The differential amplifier is a voltage subtractor circuit which produces an output voltage proportional to the voltage difference of two input signals applied to the inputs of the inverting and non-inverting terminals of an operational amplifier. Thus far we have used only one ...
We saw previously in the inverting operational amplifier that the inverting amplifier has a single input voltage, (Vin) applied to the inverting input terminal. If we add more input resistors to the input, each equal in value to the original input resistor, (Rin) we end up with a...
