of this circuit is to place a capacitor in series with RG.

Now the dc gain for each side is reduced to +1V/V,

whereas the ac gain still follows the standard transfer

function of G = 1 + 2RF/RG. This might be

advantageous for applications processing only a

frequency band that excludes dc or very low

frequencies. An input dc voltage resulting from input

bias currents is not amplified by the ac gain and can

be kept low. This circuit can be used as a differential
