(+) Non-inverting terminal, (–) Inverting terminal


Input impedance : Few mega  (Very high), Output impedance : Less than 100  (Very low)

Differential and Common Mode Operation: One of the more important features of a differential circuit
connection as provided in an op-amp is the circuit ability to greatly amplify signals that are opposite at the
two inputs while only slightly amplifying signals that are common to both inputs.
An op-amp provides an output component that is due to the amplification of the difference signals applied
to the plus and minus input and a component due to the signals common to both inputs.
Since amplification of the opposite input signals is much greater than that of common input signals the circuit
provides a common-mode rejection as described by a numerical value called COMMON MODE
REJECTION RATIO (CMRR).
Differential Input: When separate inputs are applied to the op-amp, the resulting difference signal is the
difference between the two inputs. Vd  V2  V1  V  V
Common Input: When both input signals applied to an op-amp is common, signal element due to the two

inputs can be defined as the average of the sum of the two signals. VC   2
.
 
Output Voltage: Since any signal applied to op-amp in general have both in phase and out of phase
components the resulting output can be expressed as V0  AdVd  AcVc .
Where Vd = difference voltage, VC = common mode voltage,
Ad = difference mode gain of the amplifier, Ac = Common mode gain of the amplifier.

The value of CMRR can also be expressed in log term as

Equivalent Circuit: While an input to the minus (–) input results in on opposite polarity output. The ac
equivalent circuit of the op-amp is shown in figure. As shown the input signal applied between input terminals
sees as input impedance Ri typically very high. The output voltage is shown to be the amplifier gain times
the input signal taken through output impedance R0, which is typically very low. An ideal op-amp circuit,
as shown in figure would have infinite input impedance zero output impedance and infinite voltage gain.

Non-inverting Amplifier: The connection of figures shows an op-amp that works as a non-inverting
amplifier or constant gain multiplier. It should be noted that the inverting amplifier connection is more widely
used because it has better frequency stability.

Voltage Follower or Unity Follower: The unity follower circuit as shown in figure provides a gain of unity
(1) with number polarity or phase reversal. From the equivalent circuit, it is clear that V0  V1 and that
the output is the same polarity and magnitude as the input. The circuit operates like an emitter or source
follower circuit except that the gain is exactly unity.

Note: Due to mismatching between V1 and V2 output voltage may be positive or

Slew Rate: Another parameter reflecting the op-amp’s ability to handling varying signal is slew rate, defined
as slew rate = maximum rate at which amplifier output can change in volts per micro second.

Controlled Sources: Op-amp can be used to form various types of controlled sources. An input voltage
can be used to control on output voltage or current or an input current can be used to control on output
voltage or current. There type of connections are suitable far use in various instrument system (circuit). It
