What is virtual ground in inverting op-amp configuration?

With high open-loop gain and negative feedback, op-amp drives its output to equalize inputs. Inverting input is held at ground (V+ = 0) even though not directly connected. Virtual ground allows simple current analysis.

What is instrumentation amplifier?

Three op-amp circuit providing high CMRR, high impedance differential input, single resistor gain control. Gain = (1 + 2R₂/R_G). Used for sensor signals (load cells, thermocouples) in noisy environments.

How do I design a first-order active low-pass filter?

Non-inverting Sallen-Key or RC followed by buffer. Cutoff f_c = 1/(2πRC). For precision: use equal-value RC with non-inverting gain. Bessel, Butterworth, Chebyshev characteristics affect phase and amplitude rolloff.
