A representative bipolar-input 741 amplifier has $R_{\mathrm{in}}$ of order $10^6\Omega$; the LM741 specification gives a typical $2\mathrm{M\Omega }$ at $25^{\circ }\mathrm{C}$. This is an illustrative device specification, not an identification of an unspecified practical-class part. Other input architectures can have much larger electrical resistance, and finite input capacitance makes the input impedance frequency dependent.^[ref]
