Any resistors that will provide the ratios shown above could be used. If the feedback
resistor (R4) is a 12-kilohm resistor, the values of the other resistors would be calculated as
follows:
12 kΩ
2=
R1
2(R1) = 12 kΩ
R1 = 6 kΩ
-------------
12 kΩ

R2
4(R2) = 12 kΩ
R2 = 12 kΩ
-------------
12 kΩ

R3
3(R3) = 12 kΩ
R3 = 4 kΩ

the previous calculations. To see if the circuit will produce the desired output, calculate the
currents and voltages as done for the previous circuits.
