external resistors, we can achieve various functionalities. Two fundamental configurations using the μA741 are
inverting and non-inverting amplifiers.

VI Minimum Theoretical Background


An operational amplifier (op-amp), often abbreviated as opamp or simply op, is a versatile integrated circuit(IC)
that functions as a high-gain differential amplifier. Op-amps themselves aren't categorized into specific types,
but their functionality can be tailored through external components (resistors, capacitors) to achieve various
circuit behaviors . Some common configurations are : Inverting Amplifier , Non-Inverting Amplifier , Voltage

Inverting / Non-inverting Amplifier Circuit Via IC 741 :
By understanding the principles and configurations of inverting and non-inverting amplifiers using the μA741
op-amp, we gain valuable tools for manipulating and amplifying electrical signals. These fundamental circuits
are essential building blocks in various electronic applications.

Inverting Amplifier :
An inverting amplifier utilizes the inverting input terminal of the op-amp.

Definition:
An inverting amplifier is a circuit that amplifies an input voltage signal and inverts its phase (output is 180° out
of phase with the input).

Working Principle:
The inverting input acts as a virtual ground due to the op-amp's high open-loop gain. The input voltage creates
a current flow through a resistor (R1) connected to this terminal. This current is mirrored through a feedback
resistor (Rf) connected to the output and the inverting input, creating a voltage drop across Rf. The op-amp
adjusts its output voltage to maintain the virtual ground at the inverting input, effectively amplifying the
difference between the input voltage and the voltage at the inverting input (which is nearly zero).

Working:
The gain (voltage amplification) of an inverting amplifier is determined by the ratio of the feedback resistor
(Rf) to the input resistor (R1) and can be calculated using the formula: Gain (Av) = -Rf / R1.

Advantages:

• Simple circuit design.


• High gain achievable.
• Good stability due to negative feedback.

Disadvantages:

• Inverts the input signal phase.


• Input impedance is relatively low (determined by R1).

Inverting Amplifiers Applications:

• Signal amplification.
• Audio pre-amplifiers.

• Active filters.
• Integrators and differentiators (with additional components).

Non-Inverting Amplifier :
A non-inverting amplifier uses the non-inverting input terminal of the op-amp.

Definition:
A non-inverting amplifier amplifies an input voltage signal without inverting its phase (output is in phase with
the input).

Working Principle:
The input signal is applied directly to the non-inverting input terminal. A voltage divider network formed by
resistors R1 and R2 sets a reference voltage at the inverting input. The op-amp amplifies the difference
between the voltage at the non-inverting input (the input signal) and the reference voltage at the inverting
input.

Working:
The gain of a non-inverting amplifier is determined by the ratio of the feedback resistor (Rf) to the sum of
resistors R1 and R2 and can be calculated using the formula: Gain (Av) = 1 + Rf / (R1 + R2).

Advantages:

• Maintains the phase of the input signal.


• High input impedance (almost infinite due to the op-amp's very high input impedance).

Disadvantages:
• Slightly more complex circuit compared to the inverting amplifier.
• Gain is always greater than or equal to 1 (cannot attenuate the signal).

Non-inverting amplifiers Applications:

• Signal buffering (high input impedance prevents loading of the signal source).
• Voltage level shifting.
• Voltage followers (with Rf = R1).
