Figure 32 illustrates both inverting and noninverting
op amp circuit configurations with gain. In circuit
configurations with gain, the feedback network
resistors also contribute noise. The current noise of
the op amp reacts with the feedback resistors to
create additional noise components. The feedback
resistor values can generally be chosen to make
these noise sources negligible. The equations for
total noise are shown for both configurations.
