Hey all.
I saw the thread "Dual or single supplies for opamps" - but there are no information about IN, so I need to ask u the question:

I have a ciruit as shown in the jpg image.
when known:
Vdc>0
V1<=Vdc
Vout>0

In the calculation I have -R1/R2*Vdc, but Vout always positive.
Can I conenct the amp to single power supply or I have connect it to the dual one.
please explane.

thanks ahead.

Since the circuit you show is a non-inverting amp with gain, you can use a single supply only if the op amp is capable of rail-to-rail input and output voltages. A standard op amp, such as a 741, will only operate to within a couple volts or so of the supply rails.
 
So it is, I didn't notice that, so yes, you can use a single supply op-amp like the LM358.
