Abstract

The analysis of a simple differential amplifier excited by two separate voltage sources reveals that the input impedance which loads the voltage source at the inverting input is not a constant but rather is a function of the characteristics of each voltage source. An expression is derived for the input impedance and the result is illustrated in a simple example.
