Inverting Amplifier Question 1 Detailed Solution

For an inverting amplifier, as shown above, the voltage gain is given by:
V out
Av = V in

The ideal opamp will be having virtual ground and the current entering the op-amp
will be 0.

Therefore, by applying KCL at the inverting terminal of opamp we get:

V in−0 0−V out

Inverting Amplifier Question 2 Detailed Solution

Concept:

One key feature of an Op-Amp is the differential input, and when put
together in a circuit, this can form a virtual ground.
The virtual ground concept is helpful for the analysis of Op Amps. This
concept makes Op-Amp circuit analysis much easier.
An Op-Amp inverting input (-) is at zero potential (A virtual ground), even
though it does not have a galvanic connection to the ground. This is
because of feedback due to Rf and the high gain of the Op-Amp.
The virtual ground is only valid if the Op-Amp gain is much greater than the
circuit programmed gain (Rf / R1) in the given figure.

Calculation:

Applying the virtual ground condition, voltage at positive pin and negative pin are
same and it is v.

Applying KCL at negative pin

v−v S v−v 0
R1
+ R1
=0

2v - v0 = vS ---(1)

Now applying KCL at positive pin,

v−v 0
v
R2
+ iL + R2
=0
2v−v 0
R2
+ i L = 0  ---(2)

From equation 1 we have

2v - v0 = vS

Substituting in equation 2
vS −v S
R2
+ iL = 0 ⇒ iL = R2

Inverting Amplifier Question 3:

Which among the following is the most widely used constant-gain

amplifier circuit?

1. Inverting amplifier

2. Subtractor amplifier

3. Non-inverting amplifier

4. Summing amplifier

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : Inverting amplifier

Inverting Amplifier Question 3 Detailed Solution

Amplifier:
An amplifier is a device that is used to amplify or increase the strength of the
input signal. The output of the amplifier is 'k' times of the input signal.
 Vout = k × Vin 
 where ; k = DC gain
Vout is the output voltage and Vin is the input voltage
Explanation:
1) Inverting Amplifier: 
Amplifier: This amplifier produces linear output with respect to the
input. It produces an output that is 180 degrees out of phase with the input.

Vout =  −R
Rf
×  Vin  
in  

 where Rf is the feedback element and Rin is an input element

Linear property is useful for converting a small input signal to a larger

output voltage, hence inverting amplifier is the most widely used
constant gain amplifier circuit.

2) Subtracting Amplifier: 
Amplifier: This amplifier produces an output that is
proportional to the difference between the two applied input voltages. 

 Vout = k ×  (V1 - V2) 

3) Non-Inverting Amplifier: 
Amplifier: This amplifier produces non-linear output with
respect to the input. It produces an output that is in phase with the input.
Rf
Vout = (1 + Rin )× Vin 

4) Summing Amplifier: 
Summing Amplifier: This amplifier produces output that is proportional to
the sum of two or more applied input voltages.
Vout = k ×(V1 + V2 + .......Vn)

Inverting Amplifier Question 4:

If the gain A of an inverting amplifier is 4.9, with an input resistor value
of 2.2 kΩ, what value of feedback resistor is necessary

1. 10.78 kΩ

2. 107.8 kΩ

3. 2.4 kΩ

4. 10.78 Ω

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : 10.78 kΩ

Inverting Amplifier Question 4 Detailed Solution

Concept
Concept::

For an op-amp with feedback and input resistances as shown, the gain when
when
input is at the inverting terminal is given as;

Vo R
Vi
= A = − Rf1   ----(1)

Since the gain
gain of the above configuration is always negative, it is known
as the inverting configuration.

Calculation:

Given:

Ri = 2.2 kΩ

A = 4.9

From equation (1):

R
4.9 = − 2.2f

As resistor value cannot be negative so,

Rf = 4.9 × 2.2

R f  = 10.78 kΩ

The voltage gain of a non-inverting amplifier is given by:

R2
Av = 1 + R1

Since the gain is always a positive value, it is termed as a non-inverting

amplifier.

We also observe that the gain is always greater than 1 for a non-inverting
amplifier.

Inverting Amplifier Question 5:

In practice, voltage gain is expressed ______

1. In db

2. In volts

3. As a number

4. None of these

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : In db

Inverting Amplifier Question 5 Detailed Solution

Voltage Gain:

It is the simple ratio of the output voltage to the input voltage of a system or
circuit. It indicates that maximum how much output voltage can produce with
respect to a particular input voltage.
 
Example:
Example: In the case of Signal amplifier, operational amplifier, audio amplifier,
the 'Voltage Gain' term is used because they work on the principle of voltage
amplifying.
 
In practice, voltage gain is expressed in  decibels (db)
In voltage gain a factor of 20 is multiplied to log, this is because Pout=Vout2/R, the
2 in log domain gets multiplied to 10 to get 20.
 
AV = VVout
in

A V  in db = 20log 10 ( VVout

in
)

Concept:

One key feature of an Op-Amp is the differential input, and when put
together in a circuit, this can form a virtual ground.
The virtual ground concept is helpful for the analysis of Op Amps. This
concept makes Op-Amp circuit analysis much easier.
An Op-Amp inverting input (-) is at zero potential (A virtual ground), even
though it does not have a galvanic connection to the ground. This is
because of feedback due to Rf and the high gain of the Op-Amp.
The virtual ground is only valid if the Op-Amp gain is much greater than the
circuit programmed gain (Rf / R1) in the given figure.

Calculation:

Now applying virtual circuit to given circuit:

Let the potential at the non-inverting terminal be V

Applying KCL at the non-inverting terminal:

V −V a
R
  +   V −V
R
b
  +   V −V c
R
=0
V −1
R
  +   V R−2   +   V R−3 = 0

3V = 6

V = 2 

Now due to the virtual ground concept, V will appear across inverting terminal.

Applying KCL at inverting terminal

V
2
  +   V −V
5
0
=0

As V = 2

2
2
  +   2−V
5
0
=0

2 - V0 = -5

V0 = 7 V

Hence option (2) is the correct answer.

Inverting Amplifier Question 7 Detailed Solution Download Solution PDF

Concept: 

This Opamp is a negative feedback amplifier (negative a terminal of input

connected to output) and assumes it is ideal (assume gain = ∞).

In any opamp, if negative feedback is there and Opamp is ideal then we will apply
the virtual short concept.

Assume voltages of that node is Va and Vb (From fig. 1) So according to the

virtual short concept, node voltage of Va and Vb will be equal (Due to high input
impedance)

Va = Vb .......(1)

Calculation:

Vo == 5 V

Apply KCL at node b;

(Vb - 1)/10k + (Vb - Vo)/10k + Vb/RLk = 0

Vb = 6RL/(2RL + 10)       ----(2)

Apply KCL at node a;

Va /10k + (Va - Vo)/10k = 0

V o  = 2V a        ----(3)

From (1), (2), and (3) we will get the value of RL is,

R L  = 25 kΩ
