Basic Circuit and Analysis
INIC is a non-inverting amplifier (the op-amp and the voltage divider R1, R2 on the figure) with a resistor (R3) connected between its output and input. The op-amp output voltage is
The current going from the operational amplifier output through resistor toward the source is, and
So the input experiences an opposing current that is proportional to, and the circuit acts like a resistor with negative resistance
In general, elements, and need not be pure resistances (i.e., they may be capacitors, inductors, or impedance networks).

Famous quotes containing the words basic, circuit and/or analysis:
“It is easier to move rivers and mountains than to change a person’s basic nature.”
—Chinese proverb.
“The Father and His angelic hierarchy
That made the magnitude and glory there
Stood in the circuit of a needle’s eye.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Analysis as an instrument of enlightenment and civilization is good, in so far as it shatters absurd convictions, acts as a solvent upon natural prejudices, and undermines authority; good, in other words, in that it sets free, refines, humanizes, makes slaves ripe for freedom. But it is bad, very bad, in so far as it stands in the way of action, cannot shape the vital forces, maims life at its roots. Analysis can be a very unappetizing affair, as much so as death.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
