Study Notes

  • Operational Amplifiers (OpAmp) are being examined

OpAmp Basics

  • No current flows in or out of the input
  • OpAmps try to keep the input at the same voltage
  • The gain of an OpAmp is very high
  • OpAmps can be used as comparators
  • Negative feedback configurations are common

Non-Inverting OpAmp

  • For a Non-Inverting OpAmp: Av = RF/R1 + 1
  • The output voltage is calculated: Vout = (RF/R1 + 1)Vin
  • If RF/R1 + 1 = 10, Vout = 10Vin
  • A buffer has an Av = RF/R1 + 1 = 1, resulting in a gain of 1

Inverting Amplifier

  • In an Inverting Amplifier circuit with RK = 10kΩ and a current of 1mA, the voltage is calculated: V = I * R = 1mA * 10kΩ = 10V
  • Inverting Amplifier gain is calculated: Gain = Av = -RK/R1
  • The virtual ground is a key concept

Additional Configurations

  • R1 = R2, VA = 1/2V+
  • V+/2 offset

Integrator

  • Integrator circuits
  • V = RI Ohm's Law
  • I = V/R Ohm's Law
  • VF + Vout = 0, VF = -Vout
  • I = Cf dV/dt
  • Vin/RF = -Cf dVout/dt
  • ∫Vin/RF = ∫-Cf dVout/dt
  • -1/RFCf ∫Vin dt = Vout
