STUDY OF OP-AMP
An operational amplifier or op-amp is a linear integrated circuit that has a very high
voltage gain, high input impedance and low output impedance. Op-amp is basically a
differential amplifier whose basic function is to amplify the difference between two inputsignals.
Op-amp has five basic terminals, that is, two input terminals, one o/p terminal and two power
supply terminals. Pin2 is called the inverting input terminal and it gives opposite polarity at
the output if a signal is applied to it. It produces a phase shift of 180o between input and
output. Pin3 is called the non-inverting terminal that amplifies the input signal without
inversion, i.e., there is no phase shift or i/p is in phase with o/p. The op-amp usually amplifies
the difference between the voltages applied to its two input terminals. Two further terminals
pins 7 and 4 are provided for the connection of positive and negative power supply voltages
respectively. Terminals 1 and 5 are used for dc offset. The pin 8 marked NC indicates No
Connection.
The block diagram of op-amp shows 2 difference amplifiers, a buffer for less loading, a level
translator for adjusting operating point to original level and o/p stage. An ideal op-amp
should have the following characteristics:
1. Infinite bandwidth
2. Infinite input resistance
3. Infinite open loop gain4. Zero output resistance
5. Zero offset.
Op-amps have two operating configurations; open loop and closed loop. In open loop
configuration, it can operate as a switch but gain is uncontrolled. In closed loop
configuration, gain can controlled by feedback resistance Rf and input resistance Rin.

Experiment No. 1
AIM: To design and test the operation of Differential amplifier.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
DESIGN:
Gain = 100, & Let R1 = 1 KW
AD = R2 / R1
So R2 = AD * R 1
R2 = 100 * 1KW = 100KW.
THEORY:
A Circuit that amplifies the difference between two signals is called a differential amplifier.This type of amplifier is very useful in instrumentation circuits.
For differential amplifier, though the circuit is not symmetric, but because of the mismatch,
the gain at the output with respect to positive terminal is slightly different in magnitude to
that of negative terminal. So even with the same voltage applied to both the inputs, the output
is not zero.
PROCEDURE:
1. Connections are given as per the circuit diagram.
2. Set the input Voltages V1 = 50mV & V2 =40mV.3. Note down the Output Voltage
4. Vary the input Voltages and note down the output voltages.
5. Calculate the gain & Compare it with the Theoretical gain.
RESULT:
Thus the Differential amplifier is designed & tested.

THEORY:
The basic equation for the op-amp is Ae = V0 where A is open loop gain of the
Op-amp at an operating frequency f and is positive. e is measured as per the arrow direction
shown in the fig 1. This equation is valid for the open loop condition and closed loop
condition [only for negative feedback]. Using the above formula all the gain equations for thedifferent amplifier configuration can be derived. It is very important to note that A varies
with frequency.
A is of the order of 105 to 106 at 5 Hz
Hence e = 0 for range of frequencies.
This implies that the non-inverting terminal voltage follows the inverting terminal voltage or
the inverting terminal voltage follows the non-inverting terminal voltage. In other words the
potential difference between the inverting and non-inverting terminal is zero volt at aspecified frequency the above condition will not be valid.
PROCEDURE:
1. Connections are made as shown in circuit diagrams.
2. The input voltage is given and the output voltage is noted. The maximum input voltage that
can be given to the circuit is VI[max].
3. In all the config when VI = 0, V0 = 0.
4. The close loop gain is calculated for each input voltage and transfer characteristics is
drawn for each configuration.
5. The slope of the characteristics between input and output voltage gives the small signal AC
closed loop gain as represented in model graph.
RESULT:
Slope of the DC characteristics between input and output voltage gives the small signal AC
closed loop gain provided the condition outlined in theory regarding open loop gain with
frequency is maintained.

4. What you mean by balanced and unbalanced output?
The differential amplifier uses two transistors in CE configuration. If the output is taken
across the two collectors, it is called balanced output or double ended output. If the output is
taken across one of the collectors with respect to ground it is called unbalanced output or
single ended output
5. What is loading effect? How can you reduce it?
In an amplifier only a particular percentage of output voltage (V0) will be available to the
load as load voltage (VL). This is because of the drop across the output resistance (R0) of the
amplifier. Such an effect is called loading effect. To reduce the loading effect the output
resistance (R0) must be as low as possible. So we can get load voltage almost same as output
voltage.
6. What is active load? Where it is used and why?
The requirement to increase the gain is same that the collector resistance (RC) should not
disturb d.c conditions while it must provide large resistance for a.c purposes. The current
mirror which has very low d.c resistance (dV/dI) and higher a.c resistance (dv/di) can be used
as a collector load instead of RC. Such a load is called as active load.
7. What is thermal drift?
In an op-amp the bias current, offset current and off set voltage changes with change in
temperature. Offset current drift is measured in nA/ 0C and offset voltage drift is measured in
mV/ 0C. These indicate the change in offset current or voltage for each degree Celsius
change in temperature. Forced air cooling may be used to stabilize the ambient temperature
Input offset voltage drift = Vos/TInput offset current drift = Ios/T

1. Define gain margin and phase margin
Gain margin:
The gain measured at phase cross over frequency is called gain margin.
Gain margin in dB = -20 log G (j) where =pc
Phase margin:
The phase margin is the amount of additional phase lag at gain cross over frequency gcrequired to bring the system to the very large instability.
Phase margin = 180 + gcWhere gc = [G (j)/] = gcFor negative values of phase margin and gain margin the system becomes unstable
2. Discuss in detail about comparator.
Comparator as its name implies, compares a signal voltage on one input of an op-amp with a
known voltage called a reference voltage on the other input. Comparators are used in circuits
such as,
Digital Interfacing
Schmitt Trigger
DiscriminatorVoltage level detector and oscillators
1. Non-inverting Comparator:
A fixed reference voltage Vref of 1 V is applied to the
negative terminal and time varying signal voltage Vin is applied to the positive
terminal.When Vin is less than Vref the output becomes V0 at Vsat [Vin < Vref => V0 (-
Vsat)]. When Vin is greater than Vref, the (+) input becomes positive, the V0 goes to +Vsat.
[Vin > Vref => V0 (+Vsat)]. Thus the V0 changes from one saturation level to another. The
diodes D1 and D2 protect the op-amp from damage due to the excessive input voltage Vin.
Because of these diodes, the difference input voltage Vid of the op-amp diodes are called

clamp diodes. The resistance R in series with Vin is used to limit the current through D1 and
D2 . To reduce offset problems, a resistance Rcomp = R is connected between the (-ve) input
and Vref.

2. Inverting Comparator:
This fig shows an inverting comparator in which the reference voltage Vref is applied to the(+) input terminal and Vin is applied to the (-) input terminal. In this circuit Vref is obtained
by using a
10K potentiometer that forms a voltage divider with dc supply volt +Vcc and -1 and the
wiper connected to the input. As the wiper is moved towards +Vcc, Vref becomes more
positive. Thus a Vref of a desired amplitude and polarity can be obtained by simply adjusting
the 10k potentiometer.

3. Explain Full wave Rectifier using Op-amp.
The Full wave Rectifier circuit commonly used an absolute value circuit is shown in figure.
The first part of the total circuit is a half wave rectifier circuit considered earlier in figure.
The second part of the circuit is an inverting
For positive input voltage Vi > 0V and assuming that RF =Ri = R, the output voltage VOA =
Vi . The voltage V0 appears as (-) input to the summing op-amp circuit formed by A2 , The
gain for the input V0 is R/(R/2), as shown in figure. The input Vi also appears as an input tothe summing amplifier. Then, the net output is V0 = -Vi -2V0
= -Vi -2(-Vi ) = Vi
Since Vi > 0V, V0 will be positive, with its input output characteristics in first quadrant. For
negative input Vi < 0V, the output V0 of the first part of rectifier circuit is zero. Thus, one
input of the summing circuit has a value of zero. However, Vi is also applied as an input to
the summer circuit formed by the op-amp A2 . The gain for this input id (-R/R) = -1, and
hence the output is V0 = -Vi . Since Vi is negative, v0 will be inverted and will thus be
positive. This corresponds to the second quadrant of the circuit.
To summarize the operation of the circuit,
V0 = Vi when Vi < 0V and V0 = Vi for Vi > 0V, and hence V0 = |Vi |
It can be observed that this circuit is of non-saturating form. The input and output waveformsare shown in the figure.

1. Explain Positive and Negative clippers.
Positive Clipper:
A Circuit that removes positive parts of the input signal can be formed by using an op-amp
with a rectifier diode. The clipping level is determined by the reference voltage Vref, which
should less than the i/p range of the op-amp (Vref < Vin). The Output voltage has the
portions of the positive half cycles above Vref clipped off.
The circuit works as follows:
During the positive half cycle of the input, the diode D1 conducts only until Vin = Vref. This
happens because when Vin Vref => the V0 becomes +ve to derive D1 into off. It open the feedback loopand op-amp operates open loop. When Vin drops below Vref (Vin

Ex: for high speed op-amp HA 2500, LM310, A 318. In addition the difference inputvoltage (Vid=high) is high during the time when the feedback loop is open (D1 is off) hence
an op-amp with a high difference input voltage is necessary to prevent input breakdown. If
Rp (pot) is connected to VEE instead of +Vcc, the ref voltage Vref will be negative (Vref =
-ve). This will cause the entire o/p waveform above Vref to be clipped off.
Negative Clipper:
The positive clipper is converted into a ve clipper by simply reversing diode D1 and
changing the polarity of Vref voltage. The negative clipper -> clips off the ve parts of the
input signal below the reference voltage. Diode D1 conducts -> when Vin > -Vref and
therefore during this period o/p volt V0 follows the i/p volt Vin. The Ve portion of the
output volt below Vref is clipped off because (D1 is off) Vin Vref and off for Vin.

2. Discuss the advantages of active filter over Passive filters and list commonly used
filters.
1. Gain and Frequency adjustment flexibility:Since the op-amp is capable of providing a gain, the i/p signal is not attenuated as it is
in a passive filter. [Active filter is easier to tune or adjust].
2. No loading problem:Because of the high input resistance and low o/p resistance of the op-amp, the active
filter does not cause loading of the source or load.
3. Cost:Active filters are more economical than passive filter. This is because of the variety of
cheaper op-amps and the absence of inductors.
The most commonly used filters are these:
1. Low pass Filters2. High pass Filters3. Band pass filters4. Band reject filters5. All pass filters.

3. Discuss in PLL in detail with help of well labeled diagram.
PHASE LOCKED LOOP
The PLL consists of i) Phase detector ii) LPF iii) VCO. The phase detector orcomparator compares the input frequency fIN with feedback frequency fOUT.
The output of the phase detector is proportional to the phase difference between fIN &fOUT. The output of the phase detector is a dc voltage & therefore is often referred to
as the error voltage.
The output of the phase detector is then applied to the LPF, which removes the highfrequency noise and produces a dc level. This dc level in turn, is input to the VCO.
The output frequency of VCO is directly proportional to the dc level. The VCOfrequency is compared with input frequency and adjusted until it is equal to the input
frequencies.
PLL goes through 3 states, i) free running ii) Capture iii) Phase lock.(a) Phase Detector:
Phase detector compares the input frequency and VCO frequency and generates DC voltage
i.e., proportional to the phase difference between the two frequencies. Depending on whether
the analog/digital phase detector is used, the PLL is called either an analog/digital type
respectively. Even though most monolithic PLL integrated circuits use analog phasedetectors.
(b) Low Pass filter:
The function of the LPF is to remove the high frequency components in the output of the
phase detector and to remove the high frequency noise. LPF controls the characteristics of the
phase locked loop. i.e, capture range, lock ranges, bandwidth
Lock range(Tracking range):
The lock range is defined as the range of frequencies over which the PLL system follows thechanges in the input frequency fIN.

Capture range:
Capture range is the frequency range in which the PLL acquires phase lock. Capture range is
always smaller than the lock range.
Filter Bandwidth:
Filter Bandwidth is reduced, its response time increases. However reduced Bandwidth
reduces the capture range of the PLL. Reduced Bandwidth helps to keep the loop in lock
through momentary losses of signal and also minimizes noise.
(c) Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO):
The third section of PLL is the VCO; it generates an output frequency that is directly
proportional to its input voltage. The maximum output frequency of NE/SE 566 is 500 Khz.
Feedback path and optional divider:
Most PLLs also include a divider between the oscillator and the feedback input to the phase
detector to produce a frequency synthesizer. A programmable divider is particularly useful in
radio transmitter applications, since a large number of transmit frequencies can be produced
from a single stable, accurate, but expensive, quartz crystalcontrolled reference oscillator.
