Interchange the input and feedback components: put the capacitor between the input and the inverting terminal, and the resistor between the output and the inverting terminal. Keep the non-inverting terminal grounded, as in the lower circuit above. For an ideal operational amplifier under unsaturated negative feedback, the inverting node remains at virtual ground.
The input capacitor current is . It flows through the feedback resistor, giving
This is an inverting op amp differentiator. Its ideal gain magnitude increases with frequency, so it strongly amplifies high-frequency noise. Practical differentiators include components that restrict the useful band and stabilize feedback; that qualification does not change the displayed ideal low-amplitude relation within the operating band.
