The high-pass filter design is a common one, with a well-known cutoff
frequency $\omega_c = \frac{1}{R_1 C}$ and gain $K = \frac{R_2}{R_1}$

$\omega_c = \SI{40}{\kHz} \approx \SI{2.51E5}{}$ rad/s,
$R_1 = \SI{100}{\ohm}$ and $C_1 = \SI{39}{\nano\farad}$ will

gain; selecting $R_2 = \SI{100}{\kohm}$ yields
$K = 1000 = \SI{30}{dB}$.

gain of the op-amp when no feedback is applied to connect the output
and input of the op-amp. This measure is useful, as it describes the
absolute maximum gain performance of the op-amp: notice, for example,
that the feedback resistor $R_2$ in the selected high-pass filter
design only serves to limit the gain and has no bearing on the cutoff
frequency.
In some cases, manufacturers give more precise details about the
conditions under which the op-amp amplifies higher and lower
frequencies than would be specified under generic ``open-loop gain'':

\subsection{Maintaining the Integrity of the Specifications}
By Kirchoff's Current Law,
The IEEEtran class file is used to format your paper and style the text. All margins,
column widths, line spaces, and text fonts are prescribed; please do not
alter them. You may note peculiarities. For example, the head margin
measures proportionately more than is customary. This measurement
and others are deliberate, using specifications that anticipate your paper
as one part of the entire proceedings, and not as an independent document.
Please do not revise any of the current designations.
\begin{equation}\label{eqn:kcl}
\frac{v_{in}-v_n}{R_1+\frac{1}{s C_1}} - \frac{v_n - v_{out}}{R_2} = 0
\end{equation}
By observation,
\begin{equation}\label{eqn:known}
v_{out} = A(-v_n), \quad \frac{-v_{out}}{A} = v_n
\end{equation}
Combining equations \ref{eqn:kcl} and \ref{eqn:known},
\begin{align}
\begin{split}
0 &= \frac{v_{in}-v_n}{R_1+\frac{1}{s C_1}} - \frac{v_n - A(-v_n)}{R_2} \\
&= \frac{v_{in}}{R_1+\frac{1}{s C_1}} - v_n \left(\frac{1}{R_1+s C_1} + \frac{A+1}{R_2} \right) \\
&= \frac{v_{in}}{R_1+\frac{1}{s C_1}} + \frac{v_{out}}{A} \left(\frac{1}{R_1+s C_1} + \frac{A+1}{R_2} \right) \\
\end{split}
\end{align}
So,
\begin{align}
\begin{split}
\frac{v_{out}}{A} \left(\frac{1}{R_1+s C_1} + \frac{A+1}{R_2} \right) &= -\frac{v_{in}}{R_1+\frac{1}{s C_1}} \\
H(s) = \frac{v_{out}}{v_{in}} &= -A \frac{R_2}{R_2+(A+1)(R_1+\frac{1}{s C_1})} \\
&= -A\frac{\SI{10}{\kohm}}{\SI{10}{\kohm} + (A + 1) (\SI{100}{\ohm} + \frac{1}{s \SI{39}{\nano\farad}})} \\
&= -A\frac{\SI{E4}{}}{\SI{E4}{} + (A + 1) (\SI{E2}{} + \frac{\SI{2.56E7}{}}{s})}
\end{split}
\end{align}
$H(s)$ is our \textit{transfer function}, representing how the
signal changes from the input to the output (specifically, the ratio
of the output to the input, as a function of frequency).
There remains an unspecified term $A$; this term depends on which
op-amp is being used. It remains to be shown how the overall transfer
function responds as the properties of each op-amp is applied in turn.
\subsection{The original case: the LM741}
As previously seen in Figure \ref{img:lm741_oclsg}, the open-loop gain
$A$ of the LM741 decreases logarithmically as the frequency increases
logarithmically. The rate of reduction matches that which is seen in
normal first-order filters, approximately 20dB per order of magnitude
of frequency increase (also known as ``per decade''). This standard
decrease means that a transfer function can be used to represent $A$ as
one might represent a first-order low-pass filter. For given values of
$\tau = \frac{1}{\omega_c}$ and $A_0$:
\begin{equation}
A(s) = \frac{A_0}{\tau s + 1}
\end{equation}
$A_0$ represents the peak gain; here, $\SI{106}{dB} \approx
\SI{2E5}{}$. Since $\omega_c = 25$ rad/s.
