Pin 1 and 5 are both labeled “Offset null” and they are used to compensate
for very small nonzero output when input is 0 (usually of little or no concern).

Basic Characteristics
The op-amp amplifies the difference between the voltages
applied to its two input terminals: Vout = AOL (V+ - V-)
where AOL is the open-loop gain.
Negative feedback:
Closed loop: negative

The Golden Rules of Op-Amp
In normal operation, the op-amp (with the feedback) adjusts its
output current such that
V+ ≈ V-
Since input resistance is very large
I input ≈ 0
Vin Vout

R1 R1 + R2
For closed loop (e.g. inverting and
Vout R2
A= = 1+ non-inverting), gain only depends on
In phase components in the feedback loop.

Aol does not matter.

Frequency Response
Bandwidth:

from 0Hz (DC amplifier) to
amplifier’s gain
fc (where output power =
50%, e.g. -3dB)
fc
closed loop
A= 10(dB/20)
bandwidth
e.g. Aol = 10(100/20) = 100,000 bandwidth
Acl = 10(40/20) = 100 fug
The closed-loop gain doesn't change with frequency until the line for ACL meets the
line for AOL on the amplifier’s gain versus frequency graph. Many op-amps, like the
741, roll off at 20 dB per decade. 17
Gain Bandwidth Product
gain bandwidth product (GBP) =
voltage gain of an amplifier × available band width at this gain
GBP ≡ fc × A
⇔ log(GBP) = log(f) + log(A) = constant

Integrator
An integrator integrates the (inverted)
signal over time.
