PRODUCTION DATA
The voltage follower configuration of the operational amplifier is used for applications where a weak signal is used to drive a relatively high current load. This circuit is also called a buffer amplifier or unity gain amplifier. The inputs of an operational amplifier have a very high resistance that puts a negligible current load on the voltage source. The output resistance of the operational amplifier is almost negligible, so the amplifier can provide as much current as necessary to the output load.
