Question
A circuit with an ideal OPAMP is shown in the figure. A pulse of duration is applied to the input. The capacitors are initially uncharged.
The output voltage of this circuit at (in integer) is ________ V.

Correct answer
-12
Solution
At , the input steps from to . Since the capacitors are initially uncharged, the voltage across them cannot change instantaneously.The voltage at the inverting terminal is determined by the capacitive voltage divider between the input capacitor and the feedback capacitor:The non-inverting terminal is grounded, so .Since , the ideal OPAMP will drive its output to the negative saturation voltage. Given the supply voltages are , .
