Operational Amplifiers

Operational Amplifier was originally used for D.C. Amplifiers which


perform mathematical operations such as summation, subtraction,
integration, and differentiation in analog computers.

Op-Amp is a high gain amplifier. Output is taken from only one


terminal. Vin small, Vo high. So Vo/ Vin = high

Used to amplify both A.C and D.C signals.

Its applications are,


A.C. to D.C. conversion,
Analog-to-Digital and Digital-to-Analog conversion,
Signal conditioning,
Active filters, and
Many other applications.

Operational Amplifiers
The Ideal Operational Amplifier:

It has two input terminals 1(V1) and


2(V2) and output terminal 3(V0).

Since the Op-amp is an active device, it requires a D.C. power supply


for its operation. As shown in figure a positive supply +VCC is
connected to terminal 4 and a negative supply VEE is connected to
terminal 5 (Gnd ???).

The Op-amp is also known as a differential amplifier. This means that


the Op-amp, senses the difference between the input signals applied at
terminals 1 and 2| Website

for the difference by an amount A.

The output Vo is therefore given by
Vo = A(V2 V1)

Where V1 and V2 are the input signals and the constant A is known as
the open-loop gain (There is no feedback loop connecting the output
terminal to the input terminals).

Properties of an ideal Op-Amp:


1. Infinite Input Impedance: The ideal Op-amp does not draw any
current from the voltage sources connected to its input terminals.
This implies that the input impedance of an Op-amp is infinity.

2. Zero Output Impedance: The voltage at the output terminal is


independent of the current drawn from it i.e. output impedance is
zero. Hence the Op-amp can drive an infinite number of devices.

3. Infinite Bandwidth: This implies that the amplifier can amplify any
frequency from zero to infinity without attenuation. In other
words, the ideal Op-amp will amplify signals of any frequency
with equal gain.
4. Infinite Voltage Gain: The open-loop voltage gain of an ideal Op-
amp is very large, i.e., infinity.
5. Perfect Balance: The output voltage is zero when equal voltages
are present at the two input terminals.
6. Infinite CMRR : This means that the output common-mode noise
voltage is zero.
7. Infinite Slew Rate: Slew rate indicates the rapidity with which the
output of an Op-amp changes in response to the changes in input
frequency. (how fast the output of op-amp is going to respond for
any change in input)
8. Temperature: The characteristics do not change with temperature.

operational amplifier. One of the
properties of an ideal Op-amp is
that no current should enter the

Operational Amplifiers
Saturable Property of an Op-Amp:
A is a constant for a particular Operational Amplifier and is known as
the open-loop gain since there is no feedback loop connecting the
output terminal to the input terminal, which is the basic circuit of an
op-amp.

This op-amp senses the difference between the input signals and
amplifies the difference between the input signals.

The output Vo is given by


Vo = A*(V2 - V1) ---(i)
Hence, if V1= 0, Vo = A*V2 ----------(ii)

PAPERS
Operational Amplifiers
The open-loop voltage gain of an ideal op-amp is infinity; then,
substituting A = in eqs (ii) & (iii) above, the output Vo of the op-
amp should range from + to -.

However, in practice, Vo is limited by the magnitudes of the power


supply voltages. If the supply voltage are 15V, (Terminals 4 & 5)
V0 would be about 10 V.

When the output attains this level, it does not increase any further
even if the input voltages are increased. This op-amp is now said to
be saturated.

Op-Amp as Comparator:
A comparator is a device which compares a signal voltage with a
reference voltage. An Op-Amp comparator is an open loop Op-Amp.
The reference voltage is applied to one of its input terminals, and the
signal to be compared is applied to the other input terminal.
Depending upon which of the two voltages is greater, the output
voltage is held at the positive or negative saturation voltage.

A time-varying signal Vin is applied to the non-inverting terminal
through a resistor R, and the reference voltage Vref of 1 V is applied to
the inverting terminal through resistor R1.

When Vin < Vref the voltage at the inverting (-) terminal is greater than
the voltage at the non-inverting (+) terminal and hence Vo = -Vsat it

When Vin > Vref the voltage at the non-inverting (+) terminal is greater

The Inverting Op-Amp Circuit:
An Inverting Op-Amp circuit is one whose output is out of phase by
180o with respect to the input.

The point G is called the virtual ground. since G is not directly


connected to the ground, no current from G flows to the ground. Also,
the voltage drop across R1 makes the potential V at G to be nearly
zero. This is the reason G is referred to as Virtual Ground (not the true

Because of the infinite input impedance of the Op-Amp, no current

The ratio Vo/Vi is the closed loop voltage gain VCL of the circuit. As
there is a feedback loop, the gain is known as the closed loop gain. We

Properties of an Practical Op-Amp:
1. Input Impedance: This is the ratio of the input voltage change to
input current change, measured at one input terminal. Input
impedance may be in the range of 10 K to 100 M.
2. Output Impedance: This is the ratio of the output voltage change to
output current change. Output impedance could be in the range of
tens to hundreds of ohms. (75 for A-742 IC).
3. Gain: Though an ideal Op-amp has infinite gain, a practical Op-
amp has a gain of the order of 5 x 104.
4. Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR): The relative sensitivity
of an Op-amp to a difference signal as compared to a common
mode signal is called the common-mode rejection ratio, and is

For commercial Op-amps the CMRR lies in the range 60 to 100 dB.

5. Output Voltage Swing: This is the peak output voltage with respect
to zero available at the output without distortion. It is a function of
the supply voltage. Thus, in an amplifier operating between supply
voltages +6 and -6 V, the peak-to-peak undistorted output swing
might be from -4 V to +4V (in practice the allowable voltage swing
is not always symmetrical).

7. Input Offset Current (Iio): This is the difference of the currents into
the input terminals with the output at zero volts.

8. Input Offset Voltage: Whenever both the input terminals of the Op-
amp are grounded, ideally, the output voltage should be zero.
However, in this condition, the practical Op-amp shows a small non-
zero output voltage. To make this output voltage zero, a small
voltage in milli volts (1-4) is required to be applied to one of the
input terminals. Such a voltage makes the output exactly zero. This
d.c. voltage, which makes the output voltage zero, when the other
terminal is grounded is called input offset voltage denoted as Vio.

9. Input Bias Current: Input bias current can be defined as the current
flowing into each of the two input terminals when they are biased to
the same voltage level, i.e., when the Op-amp is balanced.

10. Power-supply Voltage-rejection ratio: A change in supply voltage
VCC will produce a change Vo in the amplifier output. The
power-supply voltage-rejection ratio Vo/VCC is usually specified
for the condition that the difference voltage input Vi = 0. Typically
this ratio is in the range 10-5 to 7 x 10-5.

11. Frequency Response: Op-amps are usually low-frequency devices.


The open-loop (without feed back) 3 dB bandwidth of general-
purpose Op-amps will be in the region of 100 Hz or less.
Bandwidths as low as 10Hz are possible.

12. Slew Rate: Slew Rate is one of the most important specifications

higher frequencies.

In differential mode, the two input signals are equal but have opposite
polarity at every instant of time. Thus referring to figure, Vi1 = -Vi2. So

The overall operation being to amplify the difference signal while


rejecting the common signal at the two inputs. Since noise (any

Common-Mode Rejection:
The solutions above provide the relationships that can be used to
measure AD and AC in op-amp circuits.

To measure AD: Set Vi1 = -Vi2 = Vs = 0.5 V, so that

VD = (Vi1 - Vi2) = [0.5 V - (-0.5 V)] = 1V


VC = * (Vi1 + Vi2) = [0.5 V + (-0.5 V)] = 0V

Under these conditions the output voltage is


Vo = ADVD + ACVC = AD(1 V) + AC(0) = AD

Thus, setting the input voltages Vi1 = -Vi2 = 0.5V results in an output
voltage numerically equal to the value of AD.

Under these conditions the output voltage is
