Hi,
1)If i use an opamp with resistor feedback (for example in inverting
configuration with gain -R2/R1), the output resistence seen by opamp
is one resistor of R2 value?
2)for an opamp used in noninverting configuration (with gain 1+R2/R1),
the output resistance seen by opamp is R1+R2?
Thanks...

Hi, I'm doing some more opamp calculations just to get used to opamp
golden rules some more. I decided to do an ideal analysis on an
inverting, single-supply opamp: http://i14.tinypic.com/5xebi4w.jpg
After applying some golden rules, I got the following equations:

Hi all. I remember posting a question before regarding leaving opamp

that mean that I have to gro...

The offset voltage is 64.16uV. Then, I applied this voltage to the

getting 0V at the output,...

Supply voltages are usually something like +/-5V or +/-15V. They are

I've built a discrete transistor OpAmp, and when the input was off, I

I tried to demonstrate that in LTSpice but co...
