    Op-amp
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the output voltage of a non-inverting op-amp with a given voltage supply and resistor values. The key equation mentioned is V+ = V-, which is critical due to the op-amp's high open-loop gain. The resistor Rs is noted to have minimal impact on the circuit since the op-amp's input current is negligible. The voltage at the V- terminal can be determined using a voltage divider approach based on the provided Vs. The participants appreciate the clarity of the diagram and the structured presentation of the problem.

Homework Statement


Calculate the out put voltsge on the amplifier with a voltage supply of Vs 100 mV and Rs = 1k , R1=1k R2=10k. power comes from a +-15 v supply


Homework Equations


V1-V2/r1+V1-V2/R2=0

V+=V-


The Attempt at a Solution



it is the Risistor Rs that i am have trouble with since V+=V- on an op amp if i can find V+ then i think it can be done.

You correctly list V+ = V- which is true because of the high open loop gain of the opamp. The resistor Rs doesn't really do much in this circuit, since the input current of the opamp can be assumed to be negligible in a problem like this.

So you are given Vs, which goes right into the V+ input. What voltage will you therefore have at the V- terminal? From there, it's just a voltage divider problem, right?
 
thanks very much.
did u like my diagram?. definatly not going to be an artist. haha
