PRODUCTION DATA.
The noninverting circuit of Figure 62 has a minimum gain of 1. To implement attenuation, a resistor divider can be placed in series with the positive input, and the amplifier set for a gain of 1 V/V by shorting VOUT to VIN– and removing RG. Because the op amp input is high impedance, the resistor divider sets the attenuation.
The inverting circuit of Figure 63 is used as an attenuator by making RG larger than RF. The attenuation is the resistor ratio. For example, a 10:1 attenuator can be implemented with RF = 2 kΩ and RG = 20 kΩ.
