Is there also equal voltage on the inputs of an op-amp with a capacitor in the feedback rather than a resistor?
It can be mathematically proven that when we have a resistor in the negative feedback of an op-amp, the input voltages in the inverting and non-inverting terminals get equal.
I'm wondering if we can ...
