Analog Electronics — question 3 of 10

Write a real answer. It is graded against the question's rubric, and the mastery movement is computed by the same engine the product uses. Scoring here is deterministic rather than model-written, so this page costs nothing to run and nothing is saved. In a track built from your own posting, the same rubric is graded by the model, which is what produces feedback about your reasoning rather than about coverage.

You build an inverting amplifier with a gain of 100 to boost a small sensor signal. With the input grounded (zero signal applied), you still measure several hundred millivolts at the output instead of 0V. What's likely causing this, and how would you confirm it on the bench?

How sure are you?

Being confidently wrong costs more mastery than admitting a guess — that is deliberate, and it is how misconceptions get found.

Neither is graded, and nothing here is recorded.
