This paper presents two versions of a programmable operational amplifier for undergraduate laboratory use. Using an appropriate combination of switches and impedances, amplification, integration and differentiation are effected by the same operational amplifier. In one version, logical circuitry is used for switching reed relays. Various experimental procedures are suggested.
