Operational Amplifiers
Operational Amplifier (Op-Amp)

The OP-Amp is a low-cost and versatile IC (Integrated Circuit)


consisting of many internal transistors, resistors, and capacitors.
These are basic building blocks for:
• Amplifiers
• Integrators and Differentiators Summers
• Comparators
• A/D and D/A converters
• Active filters
• Sample and Hold circuits
• ...etc.

OP-Amp: Examples

Noninverting input
• The output is in phase with the noninverting input
- When the noninverting input goes positive, Vout goes positive;
- When the noninverting input goes negative, Vout goes negative;
• The noninverting input is identified by the + sign in the symbol of Op-amp.

Inverting input
• The output will be out of phase with the signal at the inverting input
- When the inverting input goes more positive, the output will go more
negative, and vice versa.
• The inverting input is identified by the – sign in the symbol.

OP-Amp: (2 μVExamples
– 3 μV = –1 μV).
- From the op-amp equation, Vout = A(V2 – V1), we see that if (V2 – V1) is
negative, Vout will be negative.
• In Figure (b), The inputs are both negative, yet the output is positive.
- In this case, [–2 μV – (–3 μV)] = +1 μV, which is positive.
• In Figure (c), (V2-V1)=(–2 μV –3 μV)=–5 μV, which is clearly negative.

Integrators
Output of an Integrator Circuit (RC = 1) 14

• The integrator concept can be explained by the


sample waveforms shown in the Figure
7.14 (which assumes RC = 1).
• Notice that the integrator input voltage (Vin)
rises from 0 to 1 V in the first 10 s.
• The triangular area under that portion of the
curve (a-b) is 5 V·s, so the output (Vout) of the
integrator goes from 0 to –5 V during the same
time.
• In other words, the output voltage ends up
being the same magnitude as the area under
the curve, in this case 5 ( the minus sign
appears because it is an inverting amp).
• From time b to c, Vin remains at 1 V, so the
new area added is 10 V · s.
• Consequently, the magnitude of Vout increases
by 10 to become –15 V at time c. Then, Vin
returns to 0 V.
Figure 7.14 The voltage waveform of an

Differentiators 17

• The differentiator concept is illustrated in the


Figure 7.16 (which assumes RC = 1).
• From time a to b, the input voltage (Vin) is 0
V, and because it is not changing, the output
voltage (Vout) is 0 V.
• During the time period b-c, Vin increases at
a constant rate of 1 V/s, so the Vout curve
reflects this by staying at a constant –1 V (it
is negative because the inverting input is
used).
• From time c to d, the slope of Vin increases
to 2 V/s, so Vout jumps to –2 V.
• After time d, Vin stays at 3 V, and because it
is not changing, Vout is 0.
