Replace the feedback resistor by a capacitor , retaining the input resistor . The virtual ground makes the input charge flow onto the feedback capacitor rather than into the ideal amplifier. Integrating its current gives
If the calorimeter delivers for deposited energy , then . A reset establishes the initial output; a practical large resistor across limits long-time drift, but is omitted from the ideal integration interval.

Ideal inverting charge integrator for the calorimeter signal
. The original feedback resistor is replaced by C_f; the input resistor remains for the subsequent voltage-driven integrator calculation. Details.
