How do you find the impedance of an amplifier?
The generalised formula for the input impedance of any circuit is ZIN = VIN/IIN. The DC bias circuit sets the DC operating “Q” point of the transistor and as the input capacitor, C1 acts as an open circuit and blocks any DC voltage, at DC (0Hz) the input impedance (ZIN) of the circuit will be extremely high.

Does it matter which op-amp I use?
Theoretically, if the inverting and non-inverting inputs of an op-amp are connected together, the output should be zero regardless of the voltage applied to the inputs. Again, perfection cannot be achieved. The input characteristics of the op-amp are important because they must match the signal you want to amplify.
What can be done with an operational amplifier?
Generally, the operational amplifier can be simply regarded as a high gain direct coupling voltage amplifier unit with a signal output port (Out) and two in-phase, and inverse high impedance input terminals. Thus, an operational amplifier can be used to fabricate phase, inverse, and differential amplifiers.
When to choose the right op amp for your circuit?
When designing a circuit, it is important to select the right op amp for the particular application as some are general purpose, others offer low noise, others high input impedance, etc
How to choose the right op amp for a data converter?
By choosing an amplifier with sufficient bandwidth and noise to drive the reference to an accurate final voltage within the acquisition time of the data converter, you can pat yourself on the back for once again not becoming a victim of op-amp afterthought. ■
When do you need a high impedance amplifier?
If a very-high-impedance sensor is being used, such as a pH sensor, then it is critical to choose an amplifier with extremely low input bias currents so that dc errors across large impedance changes are minimized.
