Consider a bridge circuit for sensing temperature, pressure, etc., with Ra = Rb = Rc = R .

An ideal amplifier would only amplify the difference (v+ − v−) , giving
vo = Ad (v+ − v−) = Ad vd ,
where Ad is called the “differential gain” or simply the gain (AV ).
In practice, the output can also have a common-mode component:
vo = Ad vd + Ac vc ,
where Ac is called the “common-mode gain”.
The ability of an amplifier to reject the common-mode signal is given by the
Common-Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR):
CMRR =Ad
Ac
For the 741 op-amp, the CMRR is 90 dB (' 30,000), which may be considered to be infinite in many applications. In suchcases, mismatch between circuit components will determine the overall common-mode rejection performance of the circuit.

Current-to-voltage conversion
Some circuits produce an output in the form of a current. It is convenient to convert this current into a voltagefor further processing.
Current-to-voltage conversion can be achieved by simply passing the current through a resistor: Vo1 = Is R .

However, this simple approach will not work if the next stage in the circuit (such as an amplifier) has a finite Ri ,since it will modify Vo1 to Vo1 = Is (Ri ‖ R) , which is not desirable.

Should we worry about VOS and IB?
* For the integrator, VOS and IB will lead to saturation unless a DC path (aresistor) is provided.
* In AC applications (e.g., audio), the DC shift arising due to VOS or IB is of noconsequence since a coupling capacitor will block it anyway.
* A DC shift is a matter of concern when the output is expected to be a DC (orslowly varying) quantity, e.g., a temperature sensor or a strain gauge circuit.
