Figure 65 shows the nonlinear relationship of A
OL
and The circuit in Figure 66 is used to measure the
output voltage. As Figure 65 shows, open-loop gain is settling time response. The left half of the circuit is a
lower with positive output voltage levels compared to standard, false-summing junction test circuit used for
negative voltage levels. Specifications in the settling time and open-loop gain measurement. R

provide the gain and allow for measurement
average gain measured at both output extremes. without connecting a scope probe directly to the
summing junction, which can disturb proper op amp
function by causing oscillation.
The right half of the circuit looks at the combination of
both inverting and noninverting responses. R

shows the small-signal settling time that
is centered on zero. This test circuit can be used for
incoming inspection, real-time measurement, or in
designing compensation circuits in system
applications.
