An amplifier whose output voltage equals the negative sum of the input voltages is called a(n)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A summing amplifier is designed to output the sum of the input voltages. When it is configured to provide an output that is the negative sum of the inputs, it is still referred to as a summing amplifier, not a "negative sum amplifier." The term "summing" reflects its ability to combine multiple input signals into a single output, and the inversion of the sum is a common characteristic of operational amplifier configurations used for this purpose.
