This is Unity gain buffer is operational amplifier circuit has a voltage gain 1. This is called unity gain buffer
because it gives gain of 1. The input and output signal remain same.

This is Inverting Amplifier in which the output is out of phase to the input (output is in phase shift to the
input). In inverting amplifier the output signal is again fed back to the input which will minimize the noise and
distortions in output signal. Inverting amplifier has a high gain due to its configuration because the output
generated is again applied to the inverting input. In this type of circuit feedback resistor plays an important
role for operational amplifier to function as inverting amplifier.

This is Non-Inverting amplifier, in this type of amplifier the output voltage remains in phase to the output
voltage. This type of circuit also uses negative feedback where a part of the output signal is provided back to
the inverting input instead of giving it back to the whole. The Non-Inverting amplifier has a high input
impedance but low output impedance which makes it suitable for impedance buffering applications.
