 Virtual ground
• Real ground is when a terminal is connected physically to the ground or earth.

• Virtual ground is a concept used in Op-Amps in which a node is assumed to have the
potential that of the ground terminal

 Virtual ground
• This means that the differential input voltage between the non inverting and inverting input terminals
is essentially zero.

• even if output voltage is few volts, due to large open loop gain of op-amp, the difference voltage at the
input terminals is almost zero.

• under linear range of operation, there is virtually short ckt between the two input terminals, in the
sense that their voltage are same.

 Comparators
• Comparators: The output voltage produced by the operational amplifier will rise to the

maximum possible value (equal to the positive supply rail voltage) whenever the voltage

present at the non-inverting input exceeds that present at the inverting input.

• Output voltage produced by the op-amp will fall to the minimum possible value whenever

the voltage present at the inverting input exceeds that present at the non-inverting input.
