Here we will discuss the following two applications:īy using the proper input and feedback resistor values, a summing amplifier can be designed to provide an output voltage that is equal to the average of input voltages.Ī summing amplifier will act as an averaging amplifier when both of the following conditions are met: There are a number of applications of summing amplifiers. Thus, when the gain of summing amplifier is unity, the output voltage is the algebraic sum of the input voltages. You can change the value of resistors to observer the change in the waveform.Thus the output voltage is proportional to the algebraic sum of the input voltages. The below circuit simulated gives the perfect output on the Oscilloscope. The circuit can be simulated using Proteus Software. This process repeats again and again as a result square wave is generated. Again, after reaching V2 slightly less than V1 the output will again switch to positive saturation voltage. In this instance, the capacitor starts to discharge through resistor R2 because V2 becomes greater than Vout. Then the output will be switched from positive saturation voltage to negative saturation voltage. When the voltage at the capacitor increases slightly more than the differential voltage V1. When Vin is positive the output is also positive, at this instance, the capacitor starts to charge through resistor R2 towards positive saturation voltage until V1 = V2. Therefore, input differential voltage (Vin) = V1-V2 = V1-0 = V1 The voltage difference between non-inverting and inverting terminal is referred to as differential input voltage and is given by Vin.Īt initial state when the capacitor is fully discharged, the voltage at inverting pin will be zero, i.e. Also, let us assume voltage at non-inverting terminal be V1. Let us assume the voltage at inverting terminal be V2 that equals to the voltage across the capacitor.
