INVERTING AND NON-INVERTING AMPLIFIERS USING OP AMPS
AIM: Design and realize Inverting and Non-inverting amplifier using
741 Op-amp.
Apparatus Required: Bread Board, 741 IC, ±15Vsupply, Resistors and connecting leads.
Theory:
An inverting amplifier using op-amp is a type of amplifier using op-amp where the output
waveform will be phase opposite to the input waveform. The input waveform will be amplifier
by the factor Av (voltage gain of the amplifier) in magnitude and its phase will be inverted. In the
inverting amplifier circuit the signal to be amplified is applied to the inverting input of the opamp
through the input resistance R1. Rf is the feedback resistor. Rf and Rin together determine
the gain of the amplifier. Inverting operational amplifier gain can be expressed using the
equation Av = – Rf/R1. Negative sign implies that the output signal is negated. The circuit
diagram of a basic inverting amplifier using op-amp is shown below.
Procedure:
Signal to be amplified is applied to the inverting pi (pin2) of the IC. Non inverting pin (pin3) is
connected to ground. R1 is the input resistor and Rf is the feedback resistor. Rf and R1 together
sets the gain of the amplifier. With the used values of R1=1 K ohms and Rf=2k ohms, the gain
will be 10 2K/1K = 2). RL is the load resistor and the amplified signal will be available across it.

Non-inverting amplifier using 741:
The input is applied to the non-inverting input terminal and the Inverting terminal is connected to
the ground. V1= Vin & V2=0 Volts Vo= A Vin The output voltage is larger than the input voltage
by gain A & is in phase with the input signal.
