Lecture1212 12284 Opamp1

The document discusses operational amplifiers (op-amps), including their applications, symbol and terminals, characteristics, and concepts of virtual short and virtual ground. Op-amps can be used as integrators, differentiators, adders, and voltage to current converters. They have very high gain, low input impedance, high output impedance, and high common mode rejection ratio. The inputs of an ideal op-amp are virtually shorted.

OP-AMP
(Operational Amplifier)
MCQ
In which of the following application op-amp is/are
used?

(a) Integrator and Differentiator


(b) Voltage to Current Converter
(c) Adder or Summing Amplifier
(d) All of the above
Introduction
• OP-AMP is basically a multistage amplifier which uses a number of
amplifier stages interconnected to each other.

• OP-AMP amplifies the difference between two signal and


diminish common signal.

• The integrated op amp offers all the advantage of monolithic


integrated circuit such as small size, high reliability, reduced cost,
less power consumption.
MCQ

Op-Amp is abbreviated as ________.


(a) Operational Amplifier
(b) Operand amplitude
(c) Operational amplitude
(d) None of the above
Symbol and terminals

• An OP-AMP has a two input terminal, one output terminal and two
supply voltage terminals.
• The input terminal marked with negative(-) sign is called as an inverting
terminal .

If we connect the input signal to this terminal then the amplified


output signal is 180º out of phase with respect to input.
• The input terminal marked with positive (+) sign is
called as Non-Inverting terminal.
If the input is applied to this pin then the
amplified output is in phase with the input.

• Offset null is used to nullify the offset voltage and pin no


8 is dummy pin.
MCQ

Op-Amp has _______ gain.

(a) Low
(b) High
(c) Zero
(d) Infinity
MCQ

Op-Amp has _______ gain.

(a) Low
(b) High
(c) Zero
(d) Infinity
Inverting Amplifier Non- Inverting Amplifier
Characteristics of an OP-AMP
• Characteristics are important because, we can use them to compare the
performance of various op amp ICs and select the best suitable from them for the
required application.
MCQ

Which one of the following characteristics is true for


ideal op-amp?
(a) Ri=0
(b) Ro= ∞
(c) B.W.= 0
(d) CMRR= ∞
MCQ

Which one of the following characteristics is not true for


ideal op-amp?
(a) Ri= ∞
(b) Ro= 0
(c) B.W.= 0
(d) Gain= ∞
MCQ

Which one of the following combination for op-amp


characteristics is true ?

(a) Ri= ∞, Voltage gain= 0


(b) Ro= 0, CMRR= ∞
(c) B.W.= 0, Voltage Gain= 0
(d) Gain= ∞, Slew Rate = 0
Concept of virtual short

• The input impedance of an OP-AMP is ideally


infinite. Hence current flowing from one input
terminal to the other will be zero.
• Thus the voltage drop across Ri will be zero and both the
terminals will be at the same potential.
• Means they are virtually shorted to each other
Virtual Ground
If one of the terminal of OP-AMP is connected to ground then due to
the virtual short existing between the other input terminal, the other
terminal is said to be at ground potential.
