An operational amplifier (op-amp) is an electronic device with two input terminals and one output
terminal
In the non-inverting configuration, the input signal is connected to the non-inverting (+)
input
In the inverting configuration, the output is 180
degrees
out of phase with the input.
True
Signals applied to the inverting input of an op-amp are 180 degrees out of
phase
Match the op-amp input with its effect on the output:
Inverting Input (-) ↔️ Inverts and amplifies
Non-inverting Input (+) ↔️ Amplifies without inverting
The inverting input of an
op-amp
inverts the signal.
True
What is an operational amplifier (op-amp)?
Electronic device with dual inputs
The two main configurations of an op-amp are the inverting and non-inverting
configurations
Match the op-amp configuration with its characteristic:
Inverting Configuration ↔️ 180 degrees out of phase
Non-inverting Configuration ↔️ In phase
What does the negative sign in the inverting gain formula indicate?
180 degrees out of phase
In the inverting configuration, the output voltage is
180 degrees
out of phase with the input voltage.
True
In the inverting configuration, the output phase is
180
degrees out of phase with the input.
In the inverting configuration, the output is 180
degrees
out of phase with the input.
True
Which input terminal is used in the non-inverting configuration?
Non-inverting (+) input
What is the gain formula for the non-inverting configuration?
Gain = 1 + R<sub>f</sub>/R<sub>in</sub>
What does the non-inverting input of an op-amp do to the signal?
Amplifies without inverting
The inverting input causes the output to be 180 degrees
out
of phase with the input.
What is the formula for the voltage gain in the inverting configuration?
Gain = -R<sub>f</sub>/R<sub>in</sub>
If R<sub>f</sub> = 10 kΩ and R<sub>in</sub> = 2 kΩ, what is the voltage gain in the inverting configuration?
-5
If V<sub>in</sub> = 2V, R<sub>f</sub> = 10 kΩ, and R<sub>in</sub> = 2 kΩ, the output voltage in the inverting configuration is
-10V

input
keeps the output in phase with the input.
