LM324A / LM224 Voltage Follower

Application

A 0.5 V to 2.5 V pulse drives a unity-gain voltage follower powered from a 12 V single supply.

Schematic Organization

Input and supply sources are on the left. The op amp is centered. Feedback and the load return beneath the output.

Expected Behavior

The output follows the non-inverting input at approximately unity gain without phase inversion.

Suggested Experiments

Change the pulse amplitude or add a feedback divider to turn the follower into a non-inverting amplifier.
