AI Thread Summary
In a non-inverting op-amp configuration with V+ at 2.5 volts and V- not connected, the output voltage is expected to be 2.5 volts as well, assuming ideal conditions. The V- terminal, being disconnected, can theoretically float at either 0 or 2.5 volts, but in practice, it will be influenced by the output voltage through the resistor connecting them. The discussion highlights the importance of input bias current and its effect on the circuit's behavior. The resistor's current source and voltage drop are critical factors to consider in this scenario. Overall, the output voltage remains at 2.5 volts under these conditions.

suppose an amplifier with V+ is 2.5 volts
and V- is not connected...V- and Voutput are connected by a resistor.
what is the voltage on the outpout of the op amp?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
This is a non-inverting op-amp configuration with a gain of one, sometimes called a voltage follower.

+2.5v.
 
the V- is not connected. (even not connected to ground reference)
the voltage at V- is zero or +2.5 volts like V+ or what?
thank you
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
