Operational amplifiers (op-amps) as amplifiers seems straightforward, and it is! In this video, we cover both the inverting and non-inverting amplifier configurations of an operational amplifier, derive where the amplification factors come from, and do a practical example of a non-inverting operational amplifier circuit. Op-amps are incredibly powerful tools and this is one of the many ways they can be used - creating simple yet effective amplifiers.
