Op amp circuits have the advantage that they can be cascaded without changing
their input-output relationships.
This is due to the fact that each (ideal) op amp circuit has infinite input
resistance and zero output resistance.
Although the cascade connection does not affect the op amp input-output
relationships, care must be exercised in the design of an actual op amp circuit to
ensure that the load due to the next stage in the cascade does not saturate the op
amp.

Instrumentation Amplifiers
The IA has three major characteristics:
1. The voltage gain is adjusted by one external resistor RG.
2. The input impedance of both inputs is very high and does not vary as the gain
is adjusted.
3. The output vo depends on the difference between the inputs v1 and v2, not on
the voltage common to them (common-mode voltage).

Example 14
Let R = 10 kΩ, v1 = 2.011 V, and v2 = 2.017 V. If RG is adjusted to 500 Ω , determine:
(a) the voltage gain, (b) the output voltage vo.
