How it calculates
Inverting sum: Vout = −Rf Σ(Vi/Ri)
Non-inverting sum: Vout = (1 + Rf/Rg) Σ(Vi/Ri)/Σ(1/Ri)
Assumptions
- The ideal linear solution is reported without clipping. Operating-limit warnings indicate where it is not physically achievable.
- At levels 3–6, entered values describe a generic voltage-feedback amplifier; these are not guaranteed specifications for any particular device.
- Gain, AC response, signal amplitude and SNR refer to the first input with all other ideal input sources AC-grounded. The non-inverting summing resistors mutually load the input sources.
