An ideal operational amplifier (op-amp) has infinite bandwidth and infinite slew rate.

  1. (a)(i)State what is meant by infinite bandwidth,[2]
  2. (a)(ii)State what is meant by infinite slew rate.[2]
  3. (b)On [Figure 7.1], draw lines to show the connections between the components to complete the circuit.[2]
  4. (c)(i)State the output voltage VOUT for an input voltage VIN of -0.36 V, VOUT = ........................................................... V[1]
  5. (c)(ii)State the output voltage VOUT for an input voltage VIN of 0.56 V. VOUT = ........................................................... V[1]
