Why can't the following configuration be considered negative feedback?
In the following circuit I have kept the resistor ratio such that beta factor of negative terminal (part of output will come on inverting terminal by voltage division), is higher than that of positive ...

How does a signal get amplified? [closed]
Say I send an analog electric signal through a telephone wire. If that wire is long enough then the resistance will eventually make the amplitude of the signal close to zero. How do electric signals ...

Creating a circuit with negative differential resistance
Is it possible to construct a circuit with negative differential resistance by only using components that have no negative differential resistance (e.g., resistors, diodes, BJTs, etc)?
If possible, ...

Using tunnel diode to cancel out armature resistance
Can we use tunnel diodes to cancel out armature resistance?
A tunnel diode when it is in its negative differential region under DC shifted AC(AC with some DC offset) and if the Vp-p of the AC is very ...

Why does this negative impedance converter (NIC) circuit work in an LTspice simulation but not in an actual circuit?
I've been trying to invert the phase response of a non-inverting low pass filter by using a "negative resistor" (-5000 ohms,) which is achieved by the simulation below (bode plot + circuit):

How to make/describe an element with negative resistance of minus 1 Ohm?
How do I make/describe an element with negative resistance of minus 1 Ohm?
It's I–V characteristic should then be
\$I = -U\$
Is this possible?
I need exactly what I wrote. No compromises. The ...
