I've built several op amp microphone pre-amps through the years but lost my copy of the Jung Op Amp cookbook.
Anyway... Can someone please give me the formula for the gain in db of the difference op amp pictured? I have formulas for the voltage gain. In my circuits r2=r4 r1=r3 For example: r2= 10k r4= 10k r1= 1k r3= 1k gain is 20 db Can someone tell me: r2= 2.31k r4= 2.31k r1= 1k r3= 1k gain is ?db I've got to make a low gain microphone pre-amp and can't find the correct formula on line. What are the correct values for r2 and r4 for a gaijn of 10db? Thanks in advance. |

If the voltage gain is Av then it is 20logAv dB.
In the first case (10k and 1k resistors) you have a voltage gain of 10, which is 20*log(10) = 20 dB In the second case (2.31k and 1k resistors) you have a voltage gain of 2.31, which is 20*log(2.31) = 3.6 dB Generally the difference between two voltages v1 and v2 is 20log(v1/v2) dB and the difference between two currents i1 and i2 is 20log(i1/i2). |

To actualy work out the gain in dB, just use 20Log (R2/R1), and the voltage gain woul just be R2/R1 still, as for a normal circuit.
