Study Notes
Introduction
- Lecture is about electronics and related topics.
Lecture Outline
- Passive components
- Ohm's Law
- Symbol Convention (AC, DC, AC+DC)
- Amplifiers
- Operational Amplifiers (Op-Amps)
Passive Components
- Resistors (R)
- Capacitors (C)
- Inductors (L)
- Symbols for each component are shown
- Relationships between voltage (v(t)) and current(i(t)) for each component
- Provided are equations defining impedance and admittance
Ohm's Law
- Voltage (V) equals current (I) multiplied by resistance (R)
- V = IR
- Example calculation of current (I) with known values of voltage(V) and resistance(R)
Symbol Convention (AC, DC, AC+DC)
- Total instantaneous current (ic(t)) is sum of DC current (Ic) and AC signal current (i(t))
- ic(t) = Ic + i(t)
- AC signal current is given by ic(t) = I sin ωt
Amplifiers
- Amplifiers increase signal magnitude
- Primarily operate on small input signals
- Considered voltage amplifiers
Amplifier Circuit Symbol
- Circuit diagrams of various amplifier types are shown
Voltage Amplifiers
- Characteristic of a linear voltage amplifier
- Voltage gain (Av)
- vo / vi = Av
Voltage, Current, and Power Gains
- Voltage gain (Av) = vo / vi
- Current gain (Ai) = io / ii
- Power gain (Ap) = powerload / powerinput
Expressing Gain in Decibels
- Voltage gain in decibels = 20 log|A| dB
- Current gain in decibels = 20 log|A| dB
- Power gain in decibels = 10 log Ap dB
The Amplifier Power Supplies
- DC power (Pdc) = Vcc Icc + Vee Iee
- Total input power = total output power
- Amplifier Efficiency = (PL/Pdc) * 100
Amplifier Saturation
- output peaks clipped due to saturation
- input and output waveform diagrams are shown
- formulas relating output and input signal values with gain
Circuit's Input/Output Resistances
- Input resistance (Rin) = Vx / ix
- Output resistance (Rout) = Vx/ix; Vin = 0 (for short circuit)
Operational Amplifier (Op-Amp)
- Circuit symbol for op-amp
- General equivalent circuit of op-amp
