Integrator – Operational Amplifier | Basic Circuits #14

Moving out of calculus class, the operational amplifier integrator is a great tool to have in your op-amp toolbox. As expected, the op-amp integrator takes a voltage in and integrates its behavior over time. In this tutorial, Josh reviews the concept of integration, how to put together an op-amp integrator circuit, derives the mathematical equation that describes its behavior, and finally shows a practical example of it working. Learn the basic concepts of an op-amp integrator and get a good foundational understanding of how it works in real life.
