CMRR (Common mode rejection ratio) is defined as the ratio of differential-mode voltage gain (Ad) and the common-mode voltage gain (Ac).

Mathematically, this is expressed as:

\(CMRR = \frac{A_d}{A_c}\)

Ad = Differential gain

Ac = Common mode gain

Ideally, the common-mode gain of the Op--Amp should be zero., i.e. it must give a zero output for common input at both the inverting and non-inverting terminal. ∴ The CMRR of an ideal Op-Amp is infinity.
