Engineering Calculating Op Amp Circuit Parameters

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating parameters for an ideal op-amp circuit, specifically Ia, Va, Vo, and Io. The user has derived three equations but faces a challenge with four unknowns, indicating a need for an additional constraint equation. Suggestions include using the properties of an ideal op-amp to find the voltage Vn, which can help calculate the current through the 8k resistor and Ia. The application of Ohm's Law and Kirchhoff's Laws is recommended to solve for the remaining parameters. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the importance of deriving a constraint to complete the calculations.

Homework Statement


The op am in the circuit shown is ideal. Calculate the following.
a) Ia
b) Va
c) Vo
d) Io

Homework Equations


I have found three equations one at Vn, Va, and Vo.

The Attempt at a Solution


The attempt solution is on the attachment. I currently have three equations with four unknowns. I think I need to find a constraint equation, but not sure where to obtain it from. The constraint equation I have on attachment for Io valid?

Use the properties of an ideal op-amp to determine the voltage Vn. That will give you the information you need to determine the current through the 8k resistor and hence ia. Continue with Ohm's Law and Kirchhoff's Laws to determine the rest.
