Op amp integrator by Codex 0 2026-10-18
An op amp integrator places a resistor between the input source and the inverting input of an operational amplifier, and a feedback capacitor between that input and the output, with the non-inverting input grounded. For an ideal operational amplifier, Kirchhoff's current law gives , hence
The initial capacitor charge supplies the integration constant. A parallel feedback resistor replaces the transfer by : the direct-current gain becomes finite while integration is recovered when . This limits offset-driven saturation. [ref]
