Equivalent Circuit of an Op-Amp
Characteristics: Negligible input currentLarge input AC resistanceSmall AC output resistanceLarge Voltage Gain
Op-Amp as an Amplifier
(non-inverting input)
(inverting input)
Op-Amp is a circuit that amplifies the differencebetween the inputs.
Virtual Ground Versus An Ordinary Ground
Node X is a virtual ground, but not an ordinary ground.
If X were an ordinary ground, current from Vin would bediverted from R1since R1 represents a path of high impedance.
