Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

fileC|UsersPublicDocumentsANALOG20INTEGRATED20CIRCUITSlec5bhtm (1 of 4) [1252010 21402 AM]

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

Therefore

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

Lect ure - 4 B ias ing of D i f ferent ia l Ampl i f iersConstant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 4 B ias ing of D i f ferent ia l Ampl i f iersConstant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

supply current is 28 m A

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 4 B ias ing of D i f ferent ia l Ampl i f iersConstant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

Fig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

CCand ndashV

EE For a 741C it is plusmn 13 V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

(a) The output voltage of an OPAMP is given by

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 4 B ias ing of D i f ferent ia l Ampl i f iersConstant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

supply current is 28 m A

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

Therefore

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Rc = 10Ω

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

Fig 5 shows an equivalent circuit of an OPAMP v1 and v2are the two input

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

The output voltage cannot exceed the positive and negative saturation voltagesThese saturation voltages are specified for given values of supply voltages This meansthat the output voltage is directly proportional to the input difference voltage only untilit reaches the saturation voltages and thereafter the output voltage remains constant

Thus curve is called an ideal voltage transfer curve ideal because output offset voltageis assumed to be zero If the curve is drawn to scale the curve would be almostvertical because of very large values of Ad

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

or 2VN + VN = VO

Now VO - Vi = 6 as point A and N are virtually shorted

VO - VN = 6 V

Therefore VO = VN + 6 V

Constant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides avery high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for V D In this case the commonmode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 4 B ias ing of D i f ferent ia l Ampl i f iersConstant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

Fig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3682

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

vo = +Ad vin

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

fileC|UsersPublicDocumentsANALOG20INTEGRATED20CIRCUITSlec5bhtm (1 of 4) [1252010 21402 AM]

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3682

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

Therefore

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Lect ure - 4 B ias ing of D i f ferent ia l Ampl i f iersConstant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

Fig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Fig 4 shows a complete OPAMP circuit having input different amplifiers with

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Rc = 10Ω

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

Fig 5 shows an equivalent circuit of an OPAMP v1 and v2are the two input

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Thevenin voltage source and RO is the Thevenin equivalent impedance looking back into

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

The output voltage cannot exceed the positive and negative saturation voltagesThese saturation voltages are specified for given values of supply voltages This meansthat the output voltage is directly proportional to the input difference voltage only untilit reaches the saturation voltages and thereafter the output voltage remains constant

Thus curve is called an ideal voltage transfer curve ideal because output offset voltageis assumed to be zero If the curve is drawn to scale the curve would be almostvertical because of very large values of Ad

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Lect ure - 4 B ias ing of D i f ferent ia l Ampl i f iersConstant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

Fig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

fileC|UsersPublicDocumentsANALOG20INTEGRATED20CIRCUITSlec5bhtm (1 of 4) [1252010 21402 AM]

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3682

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

vo = +Ad vin

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Vol tage ser ies feedback

It is also called non-inverting voltage feedback circuit With this type of feedback theinput signal drives the non-inverting input of an amplifier a fraction of the output voltageis then fed back to the inverting input The op-amp is represented by its symbol includingits large signal voltage gain Ad or A and the feedback circuit is composed of two resistors

R1 and Rf as shown in f ig 5

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Lect ure - 4 B ias ing of D i f ferent ia l Ampl i f iersConstant Current Bias

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

Fig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

741 OPAMP have offset voltage null capability Pins 1 and 5 are marked offset null forthis purpose It can be done by connecting 10 K ohm pot between 1 and 5 as shown in

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

CCand ndashV

EE For a 741C it is plusmn 13 V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Example - 1

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

Therefore

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Fig 6

The output voltage cannot exceed the positive and negative saturation voltagesThese saturation voltages are specified for given values of supply voltages This meansthat the output voltage is directly proportional to the input difference voltage only untilit reaches the saturation voltages and thereafter the output voltage remains constant

Thus curve is called an ideal voltage transfer curve ideal because output offset voltageis assumed to be zero If the curve is drawn to scale the curve would be almostvertical because of very large values of Ad

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

fileC|UsersPublicDocumentsANALOG20INTEGRATED20CIRCUITSlec5bhtm (1 of 4) [1252010 21402 AM]

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

Therefore

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

In the dc analysis of differential amplifier we have seen that the emitter current I E

depends upon the value of βdc To make operating point stable IE current should be

constant irrespective value of βdc

For constant IE RE should be very large This also increases the value of CMRR but if

RE value is increased to very large value IE (quiescent operating current) decreases

To maintain same value of IE the emitter supply VEE must be increased To get very

high value of resistance RE and constant IE current current bias is used

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

741 OPAMP have offset voltage null capability Pins 1 and 5 are marked offset null forthis purpose It can be done by connecting 10 K ohm pot between 1 and 5 as shown in

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

CCand ndashV

EE For a 741C it is plusmn 13 V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Example - 1

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

vo = +Ad vin

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

Vol tage ser ies feedback

It is also called non-inverting voltage feedback circuit With this type of feedback theinput signal drives the non-inverting input of an amplifier a fraction of the output voltageis then fed back to the inverting input The op-amp is represented by its symbol includingits large signal voltage gain Ad or A and the feedback circuit is composed of two resistors

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

Fig 1 shows the dual input balanced output differential amplifier using a constant

current bias The resistance RE is replace by constant current transistor Q3 The dc

collector current in Q3 is established by R1 R2 amp RE

Applying the voltage divider rule the voltage at the base of Q 3 is

Because the two halves of the differential amplifiers are symmetrical each has half of

the current IC3

The collector current IC3 in transistor Q3 is fixed because no signal is injected into either

the emitter or the base of Q3

Besides supplying constant emitter current the constant current bias also provides a

very high source resistance since the ac equivalent or the dc source is ideally an opencircuit Therefore all the performance equations obtained for differential amplifierusing emitter bias are also valid

As seen in IE expressions the current depends upon VBE3 If temperature changes

VBE changes and current IE also changes To improve thermal stability a diode is placed

in series with resistance R1as shown in f ig 2

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

fileC|UsersPublicDocumentsANALOG20INTEGRATED20CIRCUITSlec5bhtm (1 of 4) [1252010 21402 AM]

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

This helps to hold the current IE3 constant even though the temperature changes

Applying KVL to the base circuit of Q3

Therefore the current IE3 is constant and independent of temperature because of the

added diode D Without D the current would vary with temperature because VBE3

decreases approximately by 2mVdegC The diode has same temperature dependenceand hence the two variations cancel each other and I E3 does not vary appreciably

with temperature Since the cut ndash in voltage VD of diode approximately the same value as

the base to emitter voltage VBE3 of a transistor the above condition cannot be satisfied

with one diode Hence two diodes are used in series for VD

In this case the common

mode gain reduces to zero

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

fileC|UsersPublicDocumentsANALOG20INTEGRATED20CIRCUITSlec5bhtm (1 of 4) [1252010 21402 AM]

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3682

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

741 OPAMP have offset voltage null capability Pins 1 and 5 are marked offset null forthis purpose It can be done by connecting 10 K ohm pot between 1 and 5 as shown in

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

CCand ndashV

EE For a 741C it is plusmn 13 V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Example - 1

(a) The output voltage of an OPAMP is given by

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

741 OPAMP have offset voltage null capability Pins 1 and 5 are marked offset null forthis purpose It can be done by connecting 10 K ohm pot between 1 and 5 as shown in

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

vo = +Ad vin

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Vol tage ser ies feedback

It is also called non-inverting voltage feedback circuit With this type of feedback theinput signal drives the non-inverting input of an amplifier a fraction of the output voltageis then fed back to the inverting input The op-amp is represented by its symbol includingits large signal voltage gain Ad or A and the feedback circuit is composed of two resistors

R1 and Rf as shown in f ig 5

The feedback voltage always opposes the input voltage (or is out of phase by 180deg

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

741 OPAMP have offset voltage null capability Pins 1 and 5 are marked offset null forthis purpose It can be done by connecting 10 K ohm pot between 1 and 5 as shown in

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

CCand ndashV

EE For a 741C it is plusmn 13 V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Example - 1

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

vo = +Ad vin

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Rc = 10Ω

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Fig 6

The output voltage cannot exceed the positive and negative saturation voltagesThese saturation voltages are specified for given values of supply voltages This meansthat the output voltage is directly proportional to the input difference voltage only untilit reaches the saturation voltages and thereafter the output voltage remains constant

Thus curve is called an ideal voltage transfer curve ideal because output offset voltageis assumed to be zero If the curve is drawn to scale the curve would be almostvertical because of very large values of Ad

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

For the cascaded differential amplifier shown in f ig 5 determine

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Rc = 10Ω

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

Fig 5 shows an equivalent circuit of an OPAMP v1 and v2are the two input

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Thevenin voltage source and RO is the Thevenin equivalent impedance looking back into

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

The output voltage cannot exceed the positive and negative saturation voltagesThese saturation voltages are specified for given values of supply voltages This meansthat the output voltage is directly proportional to the input difference voltage only untilit reaches the saturation voltages and thereafter the output voltage remains constant

Thus curve is called an ideal voltage transfer curve ideal because output offset voltageis assumed to be zero If the curve is drawn to scale the curve would be almostvertical because of very large values of Ad

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

Lect ure - 5 The Operat ional Ampl i f iersThe operation amplifier

An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier consisting of one ormore differential (OPAMP) amplifiers and followed by a level translator and an outputstage An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit package

The block diagram of OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

Fig 1

The input stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier This stage providesmost of the voltage gain of the amplifier and also establishes the input resistance ofthe OPAMPThe intermediate stage of OPAMP is another differential amplifier which isdriven by the output of the first stage This is usually dual input unbalanced output

Because direct coupling is used the dc voltage level at the output of intermediate stageis well above ground potential Therefore level shifting circuit is used to shift the dc levelat the output downward to zero with respect to ground The output stage is generally apush pull complementary amplifier The output stage increases the output voltage swingand raises the current supplying capability of the OPAMP It also provides lowoutput resistance

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

For the cascaded differential amplifier shown in f ig 5 determine

The collector current and collector to emitter voltage for each transistor The overall voltage gain The input resistance The output resistance

Assume that for the transistors used hFE = 100 and VBE = 0715V

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

fileC|UsersPublicDocumentsANALOG20INTEGRATED20CIRCUITSlec5bhtm (1 of 4) [1252010 21402 AM]

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Level Translator

Because of the direct coupling the dc level at the emitterrises from stages to stage This increase in dc level tendsto shift the operating point of the succeeding stages andtherefore limits the output voltage swing and may evendistort the output signal

To shift the output dc level to zero level translator circuitsare used An emitter follower with voltage divider is the

simplest form of level translator as shown in f ig 2

Thus a dc voltage at the base of Q produces 0V dc at theoutput It is decided by R1 and R2 Instead of voltage

divider emitter follower either with diode current bias orcurrent mirror bias as shown in f ig 3 may be used to get

better results

In this case level shifter which is common collectoramplifier shifts the level by 07V If this shift is notsufficient the output may be taken at the junction of tworesistors in the emitter leg

For the cascaded differential amplifier shown in f ig 5 determine

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

For the cascaded differential amplifier shown in f ig 5 determine

The collector current and collector to emitter voltage for each transistor The overall voltage gain The input resistance The output resistance

Assume that for the transistors used hFE = 100 and VBE = 0715V

Fig 5

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

fileC|UsersPublicDocumentsANALOG20INTEGRATED20CIRCUITSlec5bhtm (1 of 4) [1252010 21402 AM]

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

For the cascaded differential amplifier shown in f ig 5 determine

(a) To determine the collector current and collector to emitter voltage of transistors Q 1

and Q2 we assume that the inverting and non-inverting inputs are grounded The

Electrical engineering

collector currents (IC asymp IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 3582

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Rc = 10Ω

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

Applying KCL at N

or 2VN + VN = VO

Now VO - Vi = 6 as point A and N are virtually shorted

VO - VN = 6 V

Therefore VO = VN + 6 V

collector currents (IC IE) in Q1 and Q2 are obtained as below

That is IC1 = IC2 =0988 mA

Now we can calculate the voltage between collector and emitter for Q 1 and Q2 using

the collector current as follows

VC1 = VCC = -RC1 IC1 = 10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988 mA) = 783 V = VC2

Since the voltage at the emitter of Q1 and Q2 is -0715 V

VCE1 = VCE2 = VC1 -VE1 = 783 + 0715 = 8545 V

Next we will determine the collector current in Q3 and Q4 by writing the Kirchhoffs

voltage equation for the base emitter loop of the transistor Q 3

VCC ndash RC2 IC2 = VBE3 - RE IC3 - RE2 (2 IE3) + VBE= 0

10 ndash (22kΩ) (0988mA) - 0715 - (100) (IE3) ndash (30kΩ) IE3 + 10=0

10 - 217 - 0715 + 10 - (301kΩ) IE3 = 0

Hence the voltage at the collector of Q3 and Q4 is

VC3 = VC4= VCC ndash RC3 IC3 = 10 ndash (12kΩ) (0569 mA)

= 932 V

Therefore

VCE3 = VVCE4 = VC3 ndash VE3 = 932 ndash 712 = 22 V

Thus for Q1 and Q2

ICQ = 0988 mAVCEQ = 8545 V

and for Q3 and Q4

ICQ = 0569 mA

VCEQ = 22 V

[Note that the output terminal (VC4) is at 932 V and not at zero volts]

(b) First we calculate the ac emitter resistance re of each stage and then its voltage gain

The first stage is a dual input balanced output differential amplifier therefore its voltagegain is

Where

Ri2 = input resistance of the second stage

The second stage is dual input unbalanced output differential amplifier withswamping resistor RE the voltage gain of which is

Hence the overall voltage gain is

Ad= (Ad1) (Ad2) = (8078) (417) = 33685

Thus we can obtain a higher voltage gain by cascading differential amplifier stages

(c)The input resistance of the cascaded differential amplifier is the same as theinput resistance of the first stage that is

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

Fig 5 shows an equivalent circuit of an OPAMP v1 and v2are the two input

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

The output voltage cannot exceed the positive and negative saturation voltagesThese saturation voltages are specified for given values of supply voltages This meansthat the output voltage is directly proportional to the input difference voltage only untilit reaches the saturation voltages and thereafter the output voltage remains constant

Thus curve is called an ideal voltage transfer curve ideal because output offset voltageis assumed to be zero If the curve is drawn to scale the curve would be almostvertical because of very large values of Ad

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

741 OPAMP have offset voltage null capability Pins 1 and 5 are marked offset null forthis purpose It can be done by connecting 10 K ohm pot between 1 and 5 as shown in

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

CCand ndashV

EE For a 741C it is plusmn 13 V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Example - 1

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

vo = +Ad vin

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

vo = +Ad vin

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

It is also called non-inverting voltage feedback circuit With this type of feedback theinput signal drives the non-inverting input of an amplifier a fraction of the output voltageis then fed back to the inverting input The op-amp is represented by its symbol includingits large signal voltage gain Ad or A and the feedback circuit is composed of two resistors

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

15 Power Consumpt ion

Power consumption (PC) is the amount of quiescent power (vin= 0V) that must be

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

Therefore

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Rc = 10Ω

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

Lect ure - 6 Prac t ica l Operat ional Ampl i f ier The symbolic diagram of an OPAMP is shown in f ig 1

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

741 OPAMP have offset voltage null capability Pins 1 and 5 are marked offset null forthis purpose It can be done by connecting 10 K ohm pot between 1 and 5 as shown in

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

Example - 1

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

13 Output Shor t c i rcu i t Cur rent

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

14 Supply Current

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

741c is most commonly used OPAMP available in IC package It is an 8-pin DIP chip

Parameters of OPAMP

The various important parameters of OPAMP are follows

1 Input Of fset Vol tage

Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage thatmust be applied between the two input terminals of

an OPAMP to null or zero the output f ig 2 shows

that two dc voltages are applied to input terminals tomake the output zero

Vio = Vdc1 ndash Vdc2

Vdc1 and Vdc2 are dc voltages and RS represents the

source resistance Vio is the difference of Vdc1 and

Vdc2 It may be positive or negative For a 741C

OPAMP the maximum value of Vio is 6mV It means

a voltage plusmn 6 mV is required to one of the input toreduce the output offset voltage to zero The smaller

the input offset voltage the better the differentialamplifier because its transistors are more closelymatched

2 Input o f fset Cur rent

The input offset current Iio is the difference between the currents into inverting and

non-inverting terminals of a balanced amplifier

Iio = | IB1 ndash IB2 |

The Iio for the 741C is 200nA maximum As the matching between two input terminalsis improved the difference between IB1 and IB2 becomes smaller ie the I io value

decreases furtherFor a precision OPAMP 741C Iio is 6 nA

3 Input B ias Cur rent

The input bias current IB is the average of the current entering the input terminals of

a balanced amplifier ie

IB = (IB1 + IB2 ) 2

For 741C IB(max) = 700 nA and for precision 741C IB = plusmn 7 nA

4 Dif ferent ial Input Resis tance (R i)

Ri is the equivalent resistance that can be measured at either the inverting or non-

inverting input terminal with the other terminal grounded For the 741C the input resistanceis relatively high 2 MΩ For some OPAMP it may be up to 1000 G ohm

5 Input Capacitance (C i)

Ci is the equivalent capacitance that can be measured at either the inverting and

noninverting terminal with the other terminal connected to ground A typical value of C i is

14 pf for the 741C

6 Of fset Vol t age Adjus tment Range

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Rc = 10Ω

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

7 Input Voltage Range

Input voltage range is the range of a common mode input signal for which adifferential amplifier remains linear It is used to determine the degree of matchingbetween the inverting and noninverting input terminals For the 741C the range of theinput common mode voltage is plusmn 13V maximum This means that the common modevoltage applied at both input terminals can be as high as +13V or as low as ndash13V

8 Common Mode Reject io n Ratio (CMRR)

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

voltage gain ACM

CMRR = Ad ACM

For the 741C CMRR is 90 dB typically The higher the value of CMRR the better isthe matching between two input terminals and the smaller is the output commonmode voltage

9 Supply voltage Reject io n Ratio (SVRR)

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

For the 741C SVRR = 150 micro V V

For 741C SVRR is measured for both supply magnitudes increasing or

decreasing simultaneously with R3 le 10K For same OPAMPS SVRR is separately

10 Large Signal Voltage Gain

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

12 Output Resis tance (RO)

RO is the equivalent resistance that can be measured between the output terminal of

the OPAMP and the ground It is 75 ohm for the 741C OPAMP

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

IS is the current drawn by the OPAMP from the supply For the 741C OPAMP the

supply current is 28 m A

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Vol tage ser ies feedback

It is also called non-inverting voltage feedback circuit With this type of feedback theinput signal drives the non-inverting input of an amplifier a fraction of the output voltageis then fed back to the inverting input The op-amp is represented by its symbol includingits large signal voltage gain Ad or A and the feedback circuit is composed of two resistors

R1 and Rf as shown in f ig 5

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

CMRR is defined as the ratio of the differential voltage gain A d to the common mode

SVRR is the ratio of the change in the input offset voltage to the corresponding change

in power supply voltages This is expressed in micro V V or in decibels SVRR can be defined as

SVRR = ∆ Vio ∆ V

Where ∆ V is the change in the input supply voltage and ∆ Vio is the corresponding change

in the offset voltage

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

Since the OPAMP amplifies difference voltage between two input terminals the voltagegain of the amplifier is defined as

Because output signal amplitude is much large than the input signal the voltage gainis commonly called large signal voltage gain For 741C is voltage gain is 200000 typically

11 Output vo l tage Swing

The ac output compliance PP is the maximum unclipped peak to peak output voltage thatan OPAMP can produce Since the quiescent output is ideally zero the ac output voltagecan swing positive or negative This also indicates the values of positive andnegative saturation voltages of the OPAMP The output voltage never exceeds these limitsfor a given supply voltages +V

Remember that vo = 24 V dc with the assumption that the dc output voltage is zero when

the input signals are zero

(b) The output voltage equation is valid for both ac and dc input signals The outputvoltage is given by

Thus the theoretical value of output voltage vo = -2000 V rms However the

OPAMP saturates at plusmn 14 V Therefore the actual output waveform will be clipped asshown f ig 5 This non-sinusoidal waveform is unacceptable in amplifier applications

In some applications an OPAMP may drive a load resistance that is approximatelyzero Even its output impedance is 75 ohm but cannot supply large currents Since OPAMPis low power device and so its output current is limited The 741C can supply amaximum short circuit output current of only 25mA

supply current is 28 m A

consumed by the OPAMP in order to operate properly The amount of power consumedby the 741C is 85 m W

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Fig 6

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

= +vin

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

Fig 5 shows an equivalent circuit of an OPAMP v1 and v2are the two input

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

The output voltage cannot exceed the positive and negative saturation voltagesThese saturation voltages are specified for given values of supply voltages This meansthat the output voltage is directly proportional to the input difference voltage only untilit reaches the saturation voltages and thereafter the output voltage remains constant

Thus curve is called an ideal voltage transfer curve ideal because output offset voltageis assumed to be zero If the curve is drawn to scale the curve would be almostvertical because of very large values of Ad

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

16 Gain Bandwidt h Produc t

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

17 Slew Rate

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground

The gain bandwidth product is the bandwidth of the OPAMP when the open loop voltage

gain is reduced to 1 From open loop gain vs frequency graph At 1 MHz shown in f ig 6

It can be found 1 MHz for the 741C OPAMP frequency the gain reduces to 1 The midband voltage gain is 100 000 and cut off frequency is 10Hz

Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage per unit of time

under large signal conditions and is expressed in volts micro secs

To understand this consider a charging current of a capacitor shown in f ig 7

Fig 6

If i is more capacitor charges quickly If i is limited to I max then rate of change is

also limited

Slew rate indicates how rapidly the output of an OPAMP can change in response tochanges in the input frequency with input amplitude constant The slew rate changeswith change in voltage gain and is normally specified at unity gain

If the slope requirement is greater than the slew rate then distortion occurs For the 741C

the slew rate is low 05 V micro S which limits its use in higher frequency applications

18 Input Offset Voltage and Current Dr i f t

It is also called average temperature coefficient of input offset voltage or input offsetcurrent The input offset voltage drift is the ratio of the change in input offset voltage

to change in temperature and expressed in micro V degC Input offset voltage drift = ( ∆ Vio ∆ T)

Similarly input offset current drift is the ratio of the change in input offset current to

the change in temperature Input offset current drift = ( ∆ Iio ∆ T)

For 741C

∆ Vio ∆ T = 05 micro V C

∆ Iio ∆ T = 12 pA C

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6282

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

The output voltage cannot exceed the positive and negative saturation voltagesThese saturation voltages are specified for given values of supply voltages This meansthat the output voltage is directly proportional to the input difference voltage only untilit reaches the saturation voltages and thereafter the output voltage remains constant

Thus curve is called an ideal voltage transfer curve ideal because output offset voltageis assumed to be zero If the curve is drawn to scale the curve would be almostvertical because of very large values of Ad

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Voltage ndash series feedback Voltage ndash shunt feedback Current ndash series feedback Current ndash shunt feedback

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

Now

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Ra = 10 kΩ potentiometer

Rb = 30 kΩ

Rc = 10Ω

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Equivalent Circuit of an OPAMP

voltage voltages Ri is the input impedance of OPAMP Ad Vd is an equivalent

Fig 5

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

The graphic representation of the output equation is shown in f ig 6 in which the

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

= 0

882019 lec1-10 opamp

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Ideal Voltage Transfer Curve

output voltage vO is plotted against differential input voltage vd keeping gain Ad constant

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

v1

v2

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

Fig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

where Ad is the open loop gain

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

If we select RC = 10Ω the value of Rb should be

Rb = (3000) RC = 30000Ω = 304Ω

Since R gt Rmax let RS = 10 Rmax where Rmax = Ra 4 Therefore

If a 124Ω potentiometer is not available we may prefer to use to the next lower valueavilable such as 104Ω so that the value of Ra will be larger than Rb by a factor of 10 If

we select a 10 kΩ potentiometer a s the Ra value Rb is 12 times larger than Ra Thus

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

where Ad is the open loop gain

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

Lecture -7 Parameter s of an OPAMPThe ideal OPAMP

An ideal OPAMP would exhibit the following electrical characteristic

1 Infinite voltage gain Ad

2 Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is

no loading of the input source3 Zero output resistance RO so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices

4 Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero5 Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to infinite Hz can be amplified

without attenuation6 Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that the output common mode noise voltage is zero7 Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input

voltage changes

There are practical OPAMPs that can be made to approximate some of thesecharacters using a negative feedback arrangement

This equivalent circuit is useful in analyzing the basic operating principles of OPAMP andin observing the effects of standard feedback arrangements

vO = Ad (v1 ndash v2) = Ad vd

This equation indicates that the output voltage vO is directly proportional to the

algebraic difference between the two input voltages In other words the OPAMP amplifiesthe difference between the two input voltages It does not amplify the inputvoltages themselves The polarity of the output voltage depends on the polarity ofthe difference voltage vd

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Open loop OPAMP Configuration

In the case of amplifiers the term open loop indicates that no connection exists betweeninput and output terminals of any type That is the output signal is not fedback in any formas part of the input signal

In open loop configuration The OPAMP functions as a high gain amplifier There arethree open loop OPAMP configurations

The Differential Amplifier

Fig 1 shows the open loop differential amplifier in which input signals vin1 and vin2

are applied to the positive and negative input terminals

Fig 1

Since the OPAMP amplifies the difference the between the two input signalsthis configuration is called the differential amplifier The OPAMP amplifies both ac anddc input signals The source resistance R in1 and Rin2 are normally negligible compared to

the input resistance Ri Therefore voltage drop across these resistances can be assumed

to be zero

v1 = vin1 and v2 = vin2

vo = Ad (vin1 ndash vin2 )

where Ad is the open loop gain

The Inverting Amplifier

If the input is applied to only inverting terminal and non-inverting terminal is grounded thenit is called inverting amplifierThis configuration is shown in f ig 2

v1= 0 v2 = vin

vo = -Ad vin

Fig 2

The negative sign indicates that the output voltage is out of phase with respect to input 180degor is of opposite polarity Thus the input signal is amplified and inverted also

The non-inverting amplifier

In this configuration the input voltage is applied to non-inverting terminals and

inverting terminal is ground as shown in f ig 3

This means that the input voltage is amplified by Ad and there is no phase reversal at

the output

In all there configurations any input signal slightly greater than zero drive the outputto saturation level This is because of very high gain Thus when operated in open-loopthe output of the OPAMP is either negative or positive saturation or switches betweenpositive and negative saturation levels Therefore open loop op-amp is not used inlinear applications

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

with respect to input voltage) hence the feedback is said to be negative

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

or vd = vO Ad

Si A i l (id ll i fi it )

882019 lec1-10 opamp

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6782

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

Fig 3

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

Closed Loop Amplifier

The gain of the OPAMP can be controlled if fedback is introduced in the circuit That isan output signal is fedback to the input either directly or via another network If thesignal fedback is of opposite or out phase by 180degwith respect to the input signalthe feedback is called negative fedback

An amplifier with negative fedback has a self-correcting ability of change in outputvoltage caused by changes in environmental conditions It is also known asdegenerative fedback because it reduces the output voltage andin ternreduces thevoltage gain

If the signal is fedback in phase with the input signal the feedback is called positivefeedback In positive feedback the feedback signal aids the input signal It is also knownas regenerative feedback Positive feedback is necessary in oscillator circuits

The negative fedback stabilizes the gain increases the bandwidth and changes the inputand output resistances Other benefits are reduced distortion and reduced offsetoutput voltage It also reduces the effect of temperature and supply voltage variation onthe output of an op-amp

A closed loop amplifier can be represented by two blocks one for an OPAMP and other fora feedback circuits There are four following ways to connect these blocksThese connections are shown in f ig 4

These connections are classified according to whether the voltage or current is feedbackto the input in series or in parallel

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

feedback amplifier of f ig 4 The resultant circuit is shown in f ig 5

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

httpslidepdfcomreaderfulllec1-10-opamp 6682

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

The closed loop voltage gain is given by

The product A and B is called loop gain The gain loop gain is very large such that AB gtgt 1

This shows that overall voltage gain of the circuit equals the reciprocal of B thefeedback gain It means that closed loop gain is no longer dependent on the gain of theop-amp but depends on the feedback of the voltage divider The feedback gain B canbe precisely controlled and it is independent of the amplifier

Physically what is happening in the circuit The gain is approximately constant eventhough differential voltage gain may change Suppose A increases for some

reasons (temperature change) Then the output voltage will try to increase This meansthat more voltage is fedback to the inverting input causing vd voltage to decrease

This almost completely offset the attempted increases in output voltage

Similarly if A decreases The output voltage decreases It reduces the feedback voltagevf and hence vd voltage increases Thus the output voltage increases almost to same level

Different Input voltage is ideally zero

Again considering the voltage equation

vO = Ad vd

Since Ad is very large (ideally infinite)

there4 vd asymp 0

and v1 = v2 (ideal)

This says that the voltage at non-inverting input terminal of an op-amp is approximately

equal to that at the inverting input terminal provided that Ad is very large This conceptis useful in the analysis of closed loop OPAMP circuits For example ideal closedloop voltage again can be obtained using the results

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Bandwidth with Feedback

The bandwidth of an amplifier is defined as the band of frequencies for which thegain remains constant Fig 3 shows the open loop gain vs frequency curve of

741C OPAMP From this curve for a gain of 2 x 105 the bandwidth is approximately 5HzOn the other hand the bandwidth is approximately 1MHz when the gain is unity

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Find VN V1 and VO for the circuit shown in f ig 5

Solut ion

Applying KCL at N

or 2VN + VN = VO

Now VO - Vi = 6 as point A and N are virtually shorted

VO - VN = 6 V

Therefore VO = VN + 6 V

Since AB is much larger than 1 which means that Rif is much larger that Ri Thus

Rif approaches infinity and therefore this amplifier approximates an ideal voltage amplifier

Output Resistance with Feedback

Output resistance is the resistance determined looking back into the feedback amplifierfrom the output terminal To find output resistance with feedback Rf input vin is reduced

to zero an external voltage Vo is applied as shown in f ig 2

This shows that the output resistance of the voltage series feedback amplifier is ( 1 1+AB ) times the output resistance Ro of the op-amp It is very small because (1+AB) is

very large It approaches to zero for an ideal voltage amplifier

Reduced Non-linear Distortion

The final stage of an OPAMP has non-linear distortion when the signal swings over mostof the ac load line Large swings in current cause the r e of a transistor to change during

the cycle In other words the open loop gain varies throughout the cycle of when alarge signal is being applied It is this changing voltage gain that is a source of the non-linear distortion

Noninverting voltage feedback reduces non-linear distortion because the feedbackstabilizes the closed loop voltage gain making it almost independent of the changes inopen loop voltage gain As long as loop gain is much greater than 1 the outputvoltage equals 1B times the input voltage This implies that output will be a morefaithful reproduction of the input

Consider under large signal conditions the open loop OPAMP circuit produces adistortion voltage designated vdist It can be represented by connecting a source v dist

in series with Avd Without negative feedback all the distortion voltage v dist appears at

the output But with negative feedback a fraction of v dist is feedback to inverting input This

is amplified and arrives at the output with inverted phase almost completely cancelingthe original distortion produced by the output stage

The first term is the amplified output voltage The second term in the distortion that appearsat the final output The distortion voltage is very much reduced because ABgtgt1

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Output Offset Voltage

In an OPAMP even if the input voltage is zero an output voltagecan exist There are three cause of this unwanted offset voltage

1 Input offset voltage2 Input bias voltage3 Input offset current

Fig 4 shows a feedback amplifier with an output offset voltage

source in series with the open loop output AVd The actual output

offset voltage with negative feedback is smaller The reasoning issimilar to that given for distortion Some of the output offset voltageis fed back to the inverting input After amplification an out of phasevoltage arrives at the output canceling most of the original outputoffset voltage

When loop gain AB is much greater than 1 the closed loop outputoffset voltage is much smaller than the open loop output offsetvoltage

Fig 4

Voltage Follower

The lowest gain that can be obtained from a non-inverting amplifier with feedback is 1When the non-inverting amplifier gives unity gain it is called voltage follower becausethe output voltage is equal to the input voltage and in phase with the input voltage Inother words the output voltage follows the input voltage

To obtain voltage follower R1 is open circuited and Rf is shorted in a negative

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The frequency at which gain equals 1 is known as the unity gain bandwidth It isthe maximum frequency the OPAMP can be used forFurthermore the gain bandwidth product obtained from the open loop gain vsfrequency curve is equal to the unity gain bandwidth of the OPAMPSince the gain bandwidth product is constant obviously the higher the gain the smaller

the bandwidth and vice versa If negative feedback is used gain decrease from A to A (1+AB) Therefore the closed loop bandwidth increases by (1+AB)

Bandwidth with feedback = (1+ A B) x (BW without feedback)

Voltage shunt Feedback

Fig 1 shows the voltage shunt feedback amplifier using OPAMP

Fig 1

The input voltage drives the inverting terminal and the amplified as well as invertedoutput signal is also applied to the inverting input via the feedback resistor Rf

This arrangement forms a negative feedback because any increase in the outputsignal results in a feedback signal into the inverting input signal causing a decrease inthe output signal The non-inverting terminal is grounded Resistor R1 is connected in

series with the source

The closed loop voltage gain can be obtained by writing Kirchoffs current equation atthe input node V2

The negative sign in equation indicates that the input and output signals are out of phaseby 180 Therefore it is called inverting amplifier The gain can be selected by selecting Rf

and R1 (even lt 1)

Inverting Input at Virtual Ground

In the f ig 1 shown earlier the noninverting terminal is grounded and the- input signal

is applied to the inverting terminal via resistor R1 The difference input voltage vd isideally zero (vd= vO A) is the voltage at the inverting terminals (v2) is approximately equal

to that of the noninverting terminal (v1) In other words the inverting terminal voltage (v1)

is approximately at ground potential Therefore it is said to be at virtual ground
