Inverting operational amplifier ($V_o/V_i=-R_f/R_{\mathrm{in}}$)

Connect a resistor $R_{\mathrm{in}}$ from the input source to the inverting input, a feedback resistor $R_f$ from output to that same input, and ground the non-inverting input. For ideal linear operation the inverting node is a virtual ground. Kirchhoff's current law gives $V_i/R_{\mathrm{in}}+V_o/R_f=0$, yielding the displayed voltage gain. The source sees input impedance $R_{\mathrm{in}}$, even though the amplifier input itself has infinite input impedance.
