Summary

Enter the input voltage, input resistor, and feedback resistor to instantly calculate the closed-loop gain and output voltage of an op-amp inverting amplifier.

How it works

  1. Enter the input voltage (Vin) in volts.
  2. Enter the input resistor value (Rin) in ohms, kilohms, or megaohms.
  3. Enter the feedback resistor value (Rf) in ohms, kilohms, or megaohms.
  4. The calculator applies Gain = -(Rf / Rin) to find the closed-loop gain.
  5. Output voltage is computed as Vout = Gain × Vin.
  6. Results update instantly as you type.

Use cases

  • Design signal conditioning circuits with a specific gain target.
  • Verify resistor selections for audio amplifier stages.
  • Quickly check gain and output swing before building a prototype.
  • Teach op-amp inverting amplifier theory with live feedback.
  • Size feedback resistors for instrumentation amplifier front ends.
  • Confirm polarity inversion and magnitude for control system loops.
  • Estimate output voltage headroom against supply rails.
  • Convert sensor output levels to ADC input ranges.
