CHAPTER 5: ANALOGUE ELECTRONICS
INTRODUCTION • An op amp is an active circuit element designed to perform mathematical operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, differentiation and integration. • Typical uses: provide voltage amplitude changes (amplitude and polarity), oscillators, filter circuit and instrumentation circuit. • Operational amplifier (op amp) are linear integrated circuit and widely used in analogue electronic system. • The internal constructions includes a number of transistors, diodes, resistors and capacitors in a single tiny chip of semiconductor material. • It is packaged in a single case to form a functional circuit.
INTRODUCTION
• A typical op amp has eight-pin package where pin/terminal 8 is unused and pin 1 & 5 are of little concern to us. • The other 5 are: – Pin 2 – inverting input – Pin 3 – noninverting input – Pin 6 – output – Pin 7 – +ve power supply – Pin 4 - -ve power supply
INTRODUCTION
• The circuit symbol is the triangle and in has two inputs and one output. • The inputs are marked with minus (-) and plus (+) to specify inverting and noninverting inputs, respectively.
INTRODUCTION
• An input applied to the noninverting pin will appear with the same polarity at the output. • An input applied to the inverting pin will appear inverted at the output.
BASIC OPERATION • Here, the basic operation will be divided into two section: – Non ideal operation – Ideal operation
• However, the ideal operation will be used throughout the analysis.
BASIC OPERATION
NON IDEAL OPERATION • The non ideal op amp has the following characteristics: – High open-loop gain, A ≈106 – High input resistance, Ri ≈2MΩ – Low output resistance, R0 ≈75Ω Vd is the differential input voltage given by: v d = v2 – v 1 where v1 is the voltage between the inverting terminal and ground and v2 is the voltage between the noninverting terminal and ground.
BASIC OPERATION
IDEAL OPERATION • The characteristics of an ideal op amp is defined as follows: – Infinite open-loop gain, A ≅ ∞ – Infinite input resistance, Ri ≅ ∞ – Zero output resistance, R0 ≅ 0
BASIC OPERATION
• For the ideal op amp, the following is considered: – The current into both input pin are zero: i1 = 0, i2 = 0 – The voltage across the input terminals are zero: vd = v2 – v1 = 0 thus v1 = v2
BASIC OPERATION EXAMPLE: Calculate the closed-loop gain vo/vs and find io when vs = 1V.
Solution: Remember that, for ideal op amp i1 = 0, i2 = 0,
v1 = v2
Since i1 = 0, the 40kΩ and 5kΩ resistors are in series; the same current flow through them. And notice that v2 = vs
BASIC OPERATION Hence, using the voltage division principle,
vo 5k v1 vo 5k 40k 9 Since v1 = v2 , thus
vo vo vs 9 9 vs At node O,
vo vo i0 5k 40k 20k
When vs = 1V, vo = 9V. Substituting for vo = 9V in the above equation gives io = 0.2 + 0.45 = 0.65mA
INVERTING AMPLIFIER • Figure below shows the connection of inverting amplifier.
• The noninverting input is grounded, vi is connected to the inverting input through R1 and the feedback resistor Rf is connected between the inverting input and output.
INVERTING AMPLIFIER
• Our goal is to obtain the relationship between the input voltage vi and the output voltage v0. • Applying KCL at node 1,
i1 i2
vi v1 v1 vo R1 Rf
• But for an ideal op amp, v1 = v2 = 0, since the noninverting pin is grounded. Hence,
vi vo R1 R f
vo
Rf R1
vi
INVERTING AMPLIFIER
• The voltage gain is
Rf vo Av vi R1 • The designation of the circuit as an inverter arises from the negative sign.
INVERTING AMPLIFIER EXAMPLE: If vi = 0.5V, calculate: a) the output voltage vo and b) the current in the 10kΩ resistor.
INVERTING AMPLIFIER Solution: a)
Rf vo 25 2.5 vi R1 10
vo 2.5vi 2.5 0.5 1.25V b) The current through the 10kΩ resistor is
vi 0 0.5 0 i 50 A R1 10k
NONINVERTING AMPLIFIER • Figure below shows the connection of noninverting amplifier.
• The input voltage vi is applied directly at the noninverting input pin and resistor R1 is connected between the ground and the inverting pin.
NONINVERTING AMPLIFIER
• Applying KCL at the inverting pin gives
i1 i2
0 v1 vi vo R1 Rf
but v1 = v2 = vi, the above equation becomes
vi vi vo R1 Rf or
Rf vo 1 vi R1
NONINVERTING AMPLIFIER
• The voltage gain is
Rf vo Av 1 vi R1 • The output has the same polarity as the input, thus it is named as noninverting amplifier.
NONINVERTING AMPLIFIER
VOLTAGE FOLLOWER/BUFFER and R1 = ∞ • If we let Rf = 0
the circuit will become as shown figure which is called a voltage follower (or unity gain amplifier) because the output follows the input. Thus,
vo vi
vo 1 vi
NONINVERTING AMPLIFIER EXAMPLE: Calculate the output voltage vo
6 va va vo 4k 10k Solution:
NONINVERTING AMPLIFIER But va = vb = 4, and also
6 4 4 vo 4k 10k
vo 1V
SUMMING AMPLIFIER • Figure below shows the connection of summing amplifier. Also called a summer.
• A summing amplifier is an op amp circuit that combines several inputs and produces an output that is the weighted sum of the inputs.
SUMMING AMPLIFIER
• It is an inverting amplifier with multiple inputs. It can have more than three inputs. • Applying KCL at node a gives i = i1 + i2 + i3 but
v1 va i1 , R1
v2 va i2 , R2
v3 va i3 , R3
note that va = 0, thus
Rf Rf Rf vo v1 v2 v3 R2 R3 R1
va vo i Rf
SUMMING AMPLIFIER EXAMPLE: Calculate vo and io of the following op amp circuit
Solution: There are two inputs.
Rf Rf vo v1 v2 R2 R1
SUMMING AMPLIFIER
10 10 vo 2 1 4 4 8V 2.5k 5k The current io is the sum of the currents through the 10kΩ and 2kΩ resistors. Both of these resistors have voltage vo = -8V across them, since va = vb = 0. Hence,
vo 0 vo 0 io 0.8m 4m 4.8mA 10k 2k
DIFFERENCE AMPLIFIER • This type of amp is used to amplify the difference between two input signals.
DIFFERENCE AMPLIFIER
• Applying KCL at node a gives
v1 va va vo R1 R2 or
R2 R2 vo 1va v1 R1 R1
• Applying KCL at node b gives
v2 vb vb 0 R3 R4 or
R4 vb v2 R3 R4
DIFFERENCE AMPLIFIER
since va = vb
R2 R4 R2 vo 1 v2 v1 R1 R1 R3 R4 R2 1 R1 R2
or
R2 vo v2 v1 R1 1 R3 R4 R1
