FEEDBACK AMPLIFIER

To calculate the input impedance, output impedance and voltage gain of current series

amplifier with and without feedback

Theory:
An amplifiers impedance value is particularly important for analysis especially when
cascading individual amplifier stages together one after another to minimise
distortion of the signal.
The input impedance of an amplifier is the input impedance “seen” by the source
driving the input of the amplifier. If it is too low, it can have an adverse loading
effect on the previous stage and possibly affecting the frequency response and
output signal level of that stage. But in most applications, common emitter and
common collector amplifier circuits generally have high input impedances.
Output and Input Impedance Model

10 | P a g e
Where, VS is the signal voltage, RS is the internal resistance of the signal source, and RLis the
load resistance connected across the output. We can expand this idea further by looking at how
the amplifier is connected to the source and load.
When an amplifier is connected to a signal source, the source “sees” the input
impedance, Zin of the amplifier as a load. Likewise, the input voltage, Vin is what the
amplifier sees across the input impedance, Zin. Then the amplifiers input can be modelled as a
simple voltage divider circuit as shown.

Amplifier Input Circuit Model

The same idea applies for the output impedance of the amplifier. When a load
resistance, RL is connected to the output of the amplifier, the amplifier becomes the
source feeding the load. Therefore, the output voltage and impedance automatically
becomes the source voltage and source impedance for the load as shown.

Amplifier Output Circuit Model

Then we can see that the input and output characteristics of an amplifier can both be modelled
as a simple voltage divider network. The amplifier itself can be connected inCommon
Emitter (emitter grounded), Common Collector (emitter follower) or inCommon
Base configurations. In this tutorial we will look at the bipolar transistor connected in a
common emitter configuration seen previously.

 16. APPLICATIONS OF OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER

AIM : To realize Summing Amplifier, Subtracting Amplifier, Integrator

and Differentiator by using 741 Op-Amp.

APPARATUS:
1. Op-Amp LM 741
2. Resistors – 1KΩ (4), 100KΩ (1), 10KΩ (1) and 15KΩ(1)
3. Capacitors – 0.001 µf, 0.01µf, 0.022µf
4. Function Generator
5. TRPS
6. CRO & CRO Probes
7. Bread Board
8. Connecting Wires.

THE IDEAL OP AMP:

An ideal op amp would exhibit the following electrical characteristics.

1. Infinite voltage gain A.
2. Infinite input resistance Ri so that almost any signal source can drive it and there is no
loading of the preceding stage.
3. Zero output resistance R0 so that output can drive an infinite number of other devices.
4. Zero output voltage when input voltage is zero.
5. Infinite bandwidth so that any frequency signal from 0 to ∞ Hz can be amplified without
attenuation.
6. Infinite common mode rejection ratio so that output common – mode noise voltage is zero.
7. Infinite slew rate so that output voltage changes occur simultaneously with input voltage
changes.

APPLICATIONS OF OP AMP:

1. Summing Amplifier:

Op amp may be used to design a circuit whose output is the sum of several input signals. Such
a circuit is called a summing amplifier or a summer. If V1, V2 are two input signals given to
the inverting terminal, then

Vo = - RF (V1 + V2)
R

2. Subtracting Amplifier:

The function of a subtractor is to provide an output, which is equal to the difference of two
input signals (or) proportional to the difference of two input signals. If V1 and V2 are the input
voltages at inverting and non – inverting terminals, then

 Vo = -RF (V1 - V2)
R

3. Integrator:

A circuit in which the output voltage waveform is the integral of the input voltage waveform is
the integrator or the integration amplifier. Such a circuit is obtained by using a basic inverting
amplifier configuration with the feedback resistor RF replaced by a capacitor CF. The output
voltage is
given by
Vo = - 1 ∫ V1 dt
RC
Integrator is used in signal wave shaping circuits and in analog computers. If the input is a sine
wave, the output is a cosine wave. If the input is a square wave, the output will be a triangular
wave. In the practical integrator, RF is connected across feedback capacitors CF. This RF limits
the low frequency gain and minimizes the variation in the output voltage. The input signal will
be integrated properly if the time constant
T = R1 CF is larger than the time period T of the input signal

4. Differentiator:

The function of a differentiator is to give an output voltage, which is proportional

to the rate of change of input voltage. The differentiator may be constructed from a basic
inverting amplifier if an input resistor is replaced by capacitor C1. The output voltage is given
by

Vo = - RC dVi / dt

The condition for differentiator is << T where = C1RF for sine wave and
square wave inputs, the resulting differentiated outputs are cosine wave and spike outputs
respectively. Differentiator is used to detect high frequency components in an input signal.
