The name operational amplifier comes from the fact that they
were originally used to perform mathematical operations such as
integration and differentiation.
Integrated circuit fabrication techniques have made highperformance operational amplifiers very inexpensive in comparison
to older discrete devices.

Power Bandwidth
The maximum frequency at which a sinusoidal output signal can be
produced without causing distortion in the signal.
The power bandwidth, BWp is determined using the desired
output signal amplitude and the the slew rate (see next slide)
specifications of the op amp.
BWp =
SR
2 Vo(max)
Example:
Given: Vo(max) = 12 V and SR = 500 kV/s
Find:
BWp
Solution:
BWp =
Slew Rate
A limitation of the maximum possible rate of change of the
output of an operational amplifier.
As seen on the previous slide,
SR = 2 fVo(max)
SR = vo/ tmax
f is the
frequency in
Hz
Example:
Given: SR = 500 kV/s and vo = 12 V (Vo(max) = 12V)
Find: The t and f.
Solution: t = vo / SR = (10 V) / (5x105 V/s) = 2x10-5 s
f = SR / 2 Vo(max) = (5x105 V/s) / (2 * 12) = 6,630 Hz

Noise Gain
The noise gain of an amplifier is independent of the amplifiers
configuration (inverting or noninverting)
The noise gain is given by the formula:
A N = R 1 + RF
R1
Example 1: Given a noninverting amplifier with the resistance
values, R1 = 2 k and RF = 200 k
Find: The noise gain.
AN = 2 k + 200 k = 101
2 k
Gain-Bandwidth Product
In most operational amplifiers, the open-loop gain begins
dropping off at very low frequencies. Therefore, to make the
op amp useful at higher frequencies, gain is traded for
bandwidth.
The Gain-Bandwidth Product (GBW) is given by:
GBW = ANBW

log-1 (90 / 20)

It is very desirable for the common-mode gain to be small.
