Thank you David. Makes good sense. -Chuck ---- Original Message ---- From: "David Forbes" <nixiebu...@gmail.com> Sent: 4/1/2021 10:03:25 AM To: "NeoNixie" <neonixie-l@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: [neonixie-l] LM-324 op amp
The standard way is to connect it as a unity gain buffer. Connect the non inverting input to Gnd and connect the inverting input to the output.

If for instance there is a circuit which uses only (2) of the (4) available op-amps in a DIP package, what is the normal protocol for dealing with these unused units? Can the unused inputs just be left floating? Doing do on an LM-324 runs the output at around 7.45 volts when the chip is operating from a single 9 volt supply. Does doing this draw more current than tying off inputs to GND? Thanks, Chuck -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
