LAB 3: Inverting and Non-Inverting Amplifier: Objectives

This lab experiment aims to understand the gain of inverting and non-inverting op-amp configurations and calculate their closed loop voltage gain. Components used include an op-amp, resistors, power supply and oscilloscope. Procedures include constructing the amplifier circuits, applying DC and AC input voltages and measuring output voltages. Experimental data of input-output voltages are recorded in tables. Analysis shows the inverting amplifier inverts polarity and is 180 degrees out of phase, with a gain of -10. The non-inverting amplifier does not invert polarity, with a gain of 10.5. Conclusion is that feedback resistor determines gain and inverting/non-inverting configurations impact phase and polarity.

LAB 3: inverting and non-inverting amplifier

Objectives:
1. To understand the effect of feedback resistance on the gain of op-amp.

2. To compute the closed loop voltage gain of inverting and non inverting op-amp

configurations.

Materials used

No Item name Specification


1 IC 741
2 Resistor 10KΩ, 1KΩ
3 DC power supply Adjustable(15V &-15V)
4 Digital Multimeter Adjustable for DC and AC
5 Bread Board and Connecting Wires Standard
6 Digital oscilloscope

Theory:

 Operational amplifiers have so many applications. One of this applications is signal

amplification. Since the operational amplifier has two inputs, it has three possible

amplifier configurations: Inverting amplifier; Non inverting amplifier and Difference

amplifier.

 In each of the three main configurations when used for amplification of signals a

fraction of the Output voltage is applied back to the inverting input, i.e. negative

voltage feedback, either series or shunt, is employed

 Inverting amplifier is defined as a circuit that receives a signal voltage at its inverting

input and delivers a large output while the non inverting input is grounded. The phase
or polarity of the output signal is an inversion of the input. The level of amplification is

controlled by the feedback resistor connected between the inverting input and the

output

 Non inverting amplifier is defined as a circuit that receives a signal voltage at its non

inverting input and delivers a large output while the inverting input is grounded.

Procedure:

1. The circuits in the circuit schematics part was constructed using the materials listed

above.

2. A variable DC voltage was connected to the Vin port (shown in the schematics part) and

it was made to vary in steps of 0.2v; then the output was measured and recorded in the

tables(experimental data) for both circuits.

3. An AC voltage source of 0.5v@1kHz was connected in place of the variable DC source

then the input and the output signals where displayed on the oscilloscope. This is also

shown in experimental data part.

4. From the obtained data the voltage gain was estimated.

Analysis

From the experimental data obtained the gain of the amplifiers can be calculated as

1. For Inverting amplifier :- take one column randomly and

Gain =Vo/Vin=-8.04/0.804=-10

2. For non inverting amplifier:- take one column randomly and

Gain =Vo/Vin=8.273/0.789≈10.5

As we see from the tables and the graphs the output from the inverting amplifier is inverted
polarity relative to that of the input (it is 180 degree out of phase with the input for AC signal).
On the other hand the non inverting amplifier’s output is in phase with the input(the same in
polarity with the input).
Conclusion

From the data obtained and discussions made so far, it can be deduced that:

 Inverting and non inverting amplifiers are basic amplifier configurations of op-amp.

 In the inverting op-amp the polarity of the input voltage will be changed, for AC input

the output will be 180◦ out of phase with the input.

 In the non-inverting op-amp the output is the amplified replica of the input voltage. There

is no phase inversion as well as polarity change.

 The gain of the two amplifiers mostly dependent on the feedback network. And the

closed loop voltage gain can be determined using the feedback resistor.
