For an operational amplifier, is the path from input to operational amplifier to output considered a feed forward path?
The concept of feedforward is so oblique to modern thinking that it rarely surfaces.
To compare, feedback uses the output, however non-linear the transfer characteristic of the 'forward path' may be, to modify the signal to correct the output's 'response' to approach linearity.
Feedforward corrects the signal to the forward path in the inverse of it's non-linearity, thus achieving the same goal.
Combining both methods is the 'holy grail' of linear circuit designers.
