Introduction
❖ The integrated circuit operational amplifier evolved soon after development of the
first bipolar integrated circuit.
❖ The μA-709 was introduced by Fairchild Semiconductor in 1965 and was one of the
first widely used general-purpose op-amps. The new classic μA-741, also by
Fairchild, was introduced in the late 1960s.
❖ In the ideal op-amp:
▪ The open-loop gain Aod
approaches infinity

Circuit symbol of Op-Amp ▪ The common-mode output


signal is zero.

▪ Input resistance Ri is infinite.

▪ Output resistance Ro is zero.

Inverting Amplifier
❖ One of the most widely used op-amp circuits is the inverting amplifier

▪ The closed-loop gain:

𝑣𝑜 𝑅2
𝐴𝑣 = =−
𝑣𝑖 𝑅1
Inverting op-amp circuit
▪ The input resistance:

𝑅𝑖 = 𝑅1

Example 1: Using the inverting Op-amp amplifier


to design the circuit such that the voltage gain is
Av = −5. Assume the op-amp is driven by an ideal
sinusoidal source, 𝑣𝑠 = 0.1sin𝜔𝑡 (𝑉), that can
supply a maximum current of 5𝜇𝐴.

Inverting Amplifier – Finite Gain


▪ We have:
𝑣𝐼 − 𝑣1 𝑣𝐼 − 𝑣𝑂
𝑖1 = 𝑖2 =
𝑅1 𝑅2

▪ The output voltage is: 𝑣𝑂 = −𝐴𝑜𝑑 𝑣1

𝑣 𝑣
𝑣𝐼 − 𝑣1 𝑣𝐼 + 𝐴 𝐼 𝑣𝑂 + 𝐴 𝑂
𝑜𝑑 𝑜𝑑
▪ We obtain: 𝑖1 = = = 𝑖2 = −
𝑅1 𝑅1 𝑅2
𝑣𝑂 𝑅2 1
▪ Then: 𝐴𝑣 = =−
𝑣𝐼 𝑅1 1 + 1 1 + 𝑅2
𝐴 𝑅 𝑜𝑑 1

Example 2: Consider an inverting op-amp with 𝑅1 = 10𝑘Ω and 𝑅2 = 100𝑘Ω. Determine


the closed-loop gain for: Aod = 102, 103, 104, 105, and 106. Calculate the percent deviation
from the ideal gain.

▪ Using superposition theorem to analysis the


summing amplifier, we obtain:

𝑅𝐹 𝑅𝐹 𝑅𝐹
𝑣𝑂 = − 𝑣𝐼1 + 𝑣𝐼2 + 𝑣

▪ If 𝑅1 = 𝑅2 = 𝑅3, then:

❖ We have:
0 − 𝑣𝐼 𝑣𝐼 − 𝑣𝑂
𝑖1 = 𝑖2 =
𝑅1 𝑅2

𝑣𝑜 𝑅2
❖ Because 𝑖1 = 𝑖2, then: 𝐴𝑣 = = 1+

Current-to-Voltage Converter

❖ In some situations, the output of a device or


circuit is a current. An example is the output of a
photodiode or photo-detector. We may need to
convert this output current to an output voltage.

𝑣𝑂 = −𝑖2 𝑅𝐹 = −𝑖𝑆 𝑅𝐹

❖ Voltage-to-current converter: 𝑖2 = 𝑖1 =
𝑅1
▪ Current i2 is independent of the load impedance
or resistance R2.

▪ NOT practical as the load need to be at ground

Difference Amplifier
❖ An ideal difference amplifier amplifies only the
difference between two signals. It rejects any
common signals to the two input terminals.

❖ For example, a microphone system amplifies an


audio signal applied to one terminal of a
difference amplifier, and rejects any 60 Hz noise
signal or “hum” existing on both terminals

Instrumentation Amplifier
❖ Obtain a high input impedance and a high
gain in a difference amplifier with
reasonable resistor values: DIFFICULT.

❖ SOLUTION: insert a voltage follower


→ Problem: GAIN is not easily to change.

❖ INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER allows us to


Instrumentation amplifier change the gain by changing only a single
resistance value.

Instrumentation Amplifier
▪ The output of difference amplifier is:

𝑅4 𝑅4 𝑅2
𝑣𝑂 = 𝑣 − 𝑣𝑂1 = 1+2 𝑣𝐼2 − 𝑣𝐼1
𝑅3 𝑂2 𝑅3 𝑅1

❖ Problems:

1. The common mode gain Acm and the


differential gain Aid of the first stage are
equal. This means the common mode
signal will be amplified and the overall
CMRR will be reduced.
Instrumentation amplifier 2. In order to change the overall gain, we
need to vary the values of two resistance.
This is not an easy task.

Solution: Disconnect point X to the ground.

Instrumentation Amplifier
▪ The current in resistor R1 and R2 is
𝑣𝐼1 − 𝑣𝐼2
𝑖1 =
𝑅1

▪ The output voltages of op-amps are:


𝑅2 𝑅2
𝑣𝑂1 = 𝑣𝐼1 + 𝑖1 𝑅2 = 1 + 𝑣 − 𝑣
𝑅1 𝐼1 𝑅1 𝐼2
𝑅2 𝑅2
Voltages and currents in instrumentation amplifier 𝑣𝑂2 = 𝑣𝐼2 − 𝑖1 𝑅2 = 1 + 𝑣 − 𝑣
𝑅1 𝐼2 𝑅1 𝐼1
▪ The output of difference amplifier is:
𝑅4 𝑅4 𝑅2
𝑣𝑂 = 𝑣𝑂2 − 𝑣𝑂1 = 1+2 𝑣𝐼2 − 𝑣𝐼1
𝑅3 𝑅3 𝑅1
❖ The overall gain does not depend on the matching between the two resistors.
❖ v01 and vO2 are equal if equal voltages appear at the negative terminal of A1 and A2

Example 6: Consider the instrumentation amplifier circuit. Assume that 𝑅4 = 2𝑅3
so that the difference amplifier gain is 2. Determine the range required for resistor
R1 to realize a differential gain adjustable from 5 to 500. Assume that R1 is a variable
resistor varying from 𝑅1𝑓 to 𝑅1𝑓 + 100𝑘Ω

Inverting Schmitt Trigger


❖ Using the positive feedback, we obtain:
𝑅1
𝑣+ = 𝑣
𝑅1 + 𝑅2 𝑜

❖ 𝑣+ is NOT a constant, rather, it is a


function of 𝑣𝑜 .

❖ Assume that the output of the comparator is in one state, namely 𝑣𝑜 = 𝑉𝐻 . Then:
𝑅1
𝑣+ = 𝑉𝑇𝐻 = 𝑉
𝑅1 + 𝑅2 𝐻
❖ When 𝑣𝐼 is less than 𝑣+, the output remain the high state. When 𝑣𝐼 is greater than
𝑉𝑇𝐻 . Then: 𝑣𝑜 = 𝑉𝐿 and:
𝑅1
𝑣+ = 𝑉𝑇𝐿 = 𝑉
𝑅1 + 𝑅2 𝐿
