This circuit
uses an operational amplifier configured as a non-inverting amplifier. The main component of this
circuit is the 741, a general-purpose operational amplifier. This
circuit employs a dual power supply that may range from +/-3V to +/-15V.
The output of this circuit is an amplified version of the input signal.
The gain G of this amplifier is determined by R1 and R2 according to the
equation G = 1 + (R2/R1).
Vin = I x R1
where I is the current through R1, which is also the current through R2.
Vout = I x
(R1+R2).
Vout/Vin = G
= (R1+R2)/R1 = 1 + R2/R1.
