Explanation:

Buffer:

  • A Buffer is an op-amp circuit whose output voltage straight away follows the input voltage. i.e. output voltage equivalent to the input voltage.
  • The Op-amp circuit does not provide any amplification thus, its voltage gain is unity.
  • The voltage follower is used as a buffer amplifier, isolation amplifier, unity gain amplifier as the output follows the input.
  • The voltage follower provides no alternation or amplification but only buffering.

Non-Inverting Buffer:

1. The buffer is a single-input device that has a gain of 1and provides the input at the output.

2. It has value for impedance matching and for isolation of the input and output.

Inverting Buffer:

1. The inverting buffer is a single-input device that produces the state opposite the input.

2. If the input is high, the output is low and vice versa.

Hence option (2) is the correct answer.

Characteristics:

  • High input impedance
  • Low output impedance
  • Current Gain & power gain high
  • Voltage gain unity
