INVERTING AND NON INVERTING AMPLIFIER
1a) INVERTING & NON - INVERTING AMPLIFIER

AIM:
To design an Inverting and noninverting Amplifier for the given specifications using Op-Amp IC
741.
THEORY:
The inverting amplifier is shown in the following Fig1.1.

The input signal drives the

invertinginput of the op-amp through resistor R1 . The op-amp has an open-loop gain of A, so
that the output signal is much larger than the error voltage. Because of the phase inversion, the
output signal is 180 out-of-phase with the input signal. This means that the feed back signal
opposes the input signal and the feedback is negative or degenerative.

ADDER AND SUBTRACTOR USING OP-AMP.

AIM:
To construct an Adder and Subtractor using OP-AMP and verify its working.
THEORY:
ADDER:
The gain for each input to the adder depends upon the ratio of the feedback resistance
of the circuit to the value of the resistor at that input. The adder is sometimes called a weighted
adder because it provides a means of multiplying each of the inputs by a separate constant
before adding them all together. It can be used to add any number of inputs and multiply each
input by a different constant. This makes it useful inapplications like audio mixers.

Figure 2.1
Circuit diagram for Adder
Its behavior is governed by the following equation:

VEL TECHDR.RR&DR.SR TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY

Page 9

U4ECB10

LINEAR INTEGRATED CIRCUITS LAB

SUBTRACTOR:
It amplifies the difference between the two input voltages by Rf/Rin, which is the
overall gain for the circuit. Note that the ability of this amplifier to effectively take the
difference between two signals depends on the fact that it uses two pairs of identical
resistances. Also note that the signal that is subtracted goes into the negative input to the opamp. Be careful with the term differential. In spite of its similarity to the term
differentiation, the differential amplifier does not differentiate its input.
The circuit in the following Figure 12.2 is a differential amplifier, also called a
difference amplifier.

DIFFERENTIATOR AND INTEGRATOR

AIM:
To design a Integrator and Differentiator circuit for the given specifications using Op-Amp IC
741.
DIFFERENTIATOR
THEORY:

The differentiator circuit performs the mathematical operation of differentiation. The


differentiator may be constructed from a basic inverting amplifier if an input resistor R1
is replaced by a capacitor C1.The expression for the output voltage is given as,
Vo = - Rf C1 (dVi/dt)

Here the negative sign indicates that the output voltage is 1800out of phase with the
input signal.

A resistor Rcomp = Rf is normally connected to the non-inverting input terminal of the opamp to compensate for the input bias current. A workable differentiator can be
designed by implementing the following steps:

1. Select fa equal to the highest frequency of the input signal to be differentiated. Then,
assuming a value of C1< 1 F, calculate the value of Rf.
2. Choose fb= 20 fa and calculate the values of R1 and Cf so that R1C1 = Rf Cf.

The differentiator is most commonly used in waveshaping circuits to detect high


frequency components in an input signal and also as a rateofchange detector in FM
modulators.

DIFFERENTIATOR DESIGN:
[To design a differentiator circuit to differentiate an input signal that varies in frequency from 10
Hz to about 1 KHz.

If a sine wave of 1 V peak to peak

at 1000Hz is applied to the

differentiator, draw its output waveform.]


Given
fa= 1 KHz
We know the frequency at which the gain is 0 dB, fa = 1 / (2 Rf C1)
Let us assume C1 = 0.1 F ; then
Rf = _________
Since fb = 20 fa, fb = 20 KHz
We know that the gain limiting frequency fb = 1 / (2 R1 C1)
Hence R1 = _________
Also since R1C1 = Rf Cf ; Cf = _________
Given VP = 1 V and f = 1000 Hz, the input voltage is Vi = Vp sin t
We know = 2f
Hence VO= - RF C1 (dvi/dt)
= - 0.94 cos t
Design the Differentiator for fallowing specifications.
1. An input signal that varies in frequency from 10 Hz to about 750Hz. If a sine wave of 3
V peak at 750Hz is applied to the differentiator, draw its output waveform.
2. An input signal that varies in frequency from 10 Hz to about 500Hz. If a sine wave of 2
V peak at 500Hz is applied to the differentiator, draw its output waveform.
3. An input signal that varies in frequency from 10 Hz to about 800Hz. If a sine wave of 3
V peak at 800Hz is applied to the differentiator, draw its output waveform.

THEORY:

A circuit in which the output voltage waveform is the integral of the input voltage
waveform is the integrator.

Such a circuit is obtained by using a basic inverting amplifier configuration if the


feedback resistor Rfis replaced by a capacitor Cf .The expression for the output voltage is
given as,

fb . The input signal will be integrated properly if the Time period T of the signal is larger
than or equal to Rf Cf . That is,

DIFFRENTIAL AMPLIFIER& SCHMITT TRIGGER

AIM:
To design and test the operation of Differential amplifier and Schmitt trigger.
DIFFRENTIAL AMPLIFIER
THEORY:

A Circuit that amplifies the difference between two signals is called a differential
amplifier.

This type of amplifier is very useful in instrumentation circuits.

For differential amplifier, though the circuit is not symmetric, but because of the
mismatch, the gain at the output with respect to positive terminal is slightly different in
magnitude to that of negative terminal.

So even with the same voltage applied to both the inputs, the output is not zero.

DIFFRENTIAL AMPLIFIER DESIGN:


Gain = 100, & Let R1 = 1 K
AD = R2 / R1
So R2 = AD * R 1
R2 = 100 * 1K = 100K.

SCHMITT TRIGGER
THEORY:

The Schmitt trigger is a comparator with positive feedback. It converts slowly varying
waveforms into square wave.

The input voltage is applied to the inverting terminal and the feedback circuit is
connected to the non-inverting terminal. The input voltage triggers the output every
time it exceeds certain voltage levels.

These voltage levels are called as upper threshold voltage (VUT) and lower threshold
voltage (VLT). As long as the input voltage is less than VUT the output remains at +Vsat.

When Vi is just greater than VUT, the output regenerative switches to - Vsat and remains
at this level. When the input voltage becomes lesser than VLT, the output switches from Vsatto + Vsat.

WEIN BRIDGE and PHASE SHIFT OSCILLATOR USING OP-AMP 741

AIM:
To design the Wien Bridge and Phase shift oscillator using OP-AMP IC for the given

WEIN BRIDGE
THEORY:
The Wien bridge oscillator is the most commonly used audio frequency oscillator
because of its simplicity and stability. Figure shows the Wien bridge oscillator in which
Wien bridge circuit is connected between the amplifiers input terminals and the output
terminal. The bridge has a series RC network in one arm and a parallel RC network in the
adjoining arm. In the remaining two arms of the bridge, resistors R1 and Rf are
connected.
The phase angle criterion for oscillation is that the total phase shift around the circuit
must be 00. This condition occurs only when the bridge is balanced. The frequency of
oscillation fois exactly the resonant frequency of the balanced Wien bridge and is given
by, fo = 1/(2 R C )

ASTABLE & MONOSTABLE MULTIVIBRATORS USING OP-AMP

AIM:
To design and construct an Astable and Monostable multivibrators using IC Operational
amplifier 741.
ASTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR
THEORY:

Multivibrators are group of regenerative circuits. They are widely used in timing
applications.

An electronic circuit that generates square waves (or other non-sinusoidal such a
rectangular, saw tooth waves) is known as a multivibrator.

A multivibrator is a switching circuit, which depends for operation on positive feedback.


It is basically a two-stage amplifier with output of one feedback to the input of the
other.

Multivibrators are classified as


Bistable multivibrator
Monostable multivibrator
Astable multivibrator

ASTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR:

Astable circuits are used to generate square waves. It is also known as free running
multivibrator.

The circuit has two quasi stable states (no stable state). Thus, there is an oscillation
between two states and no external signals are required to produce the change in state.

OPERATION:

In a free running mode, the two states of the multivibrator are momentarily stable and
the circuit switches respectively between these two states.

VEL TECHDR.RR&DR.SR TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY

LINEAR INTEGRATED CIRCUITS LAB

In one state the amplifier output goes to positive saturation level while in the other
state it goes into negative saturation. The amplifier output is thus a square wave; the
period of a square wave is determined by the time constant R & C.

ASTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR DESIGN:


Feedback factor () = R2/(R1+R2)
Time period of the square wave T =2RC ln[(1+)/(1-)]
Let R1 =R2 10K then =0.5
Assume C = 0.1F
For a time period of 1ms
T= 2RC ln 3
Rf = 4.55K

MONOSTABLE

THEORY:
It is also known as one shot multivibrator.

It generates a single pulse of specified duration in response to each external trigger


signal. A mono-stable multivibrator exits only one stable state.

Application of a trigger causes a change to the quasistable state.

The circuit remains in a quasistable state for a fixed interval of time and then reverts to
its original stable state.

An internal trigger signal is generated which produces the transition to the stable state.
Usually, the charging and discharging of a capacitor provides this internal trigger signal.

T = R*C ln (1+R2 / R1)

where Vsat = 12V and Substitute Vt in T, we get

EXP NO: 6 SECOND ORDER ACTIVE LOW PASS HIGH PASS AND BAND PASS FILTER
AIM:

To design a second order low pass, high pass and band pass filter and also to

determine its frequency response using IC 741.

THEORY:
LOWPASS FILTER:
An improved filter response can be obtained by using a second order active filter. A second
order filter consists of two RC pairs and has a roll-off rate of -40 dB/decade. A general second
order filter (Sallen Kay filter) is used to analyze different LP, HP, BP and BSF.
HIGHPASS FILTER:
The high pass filter is the complement of the low pass filter. Thus the high pass filter canbe
obtained by interchanging R and C in the circuit of low pass configuration. A high pass
filterallows only frequencies above a certain bread point to pass through and it terminates the
lowfrequency components. The range of frequencies beyond its lower cut off frequency fL is
calledstop band.
BANDPASS FILTER:
The BPF is the combination of high and low pass filters and this allows a specified range of
frequencies to pass through. It has two stop bands in range of frequencies between 0 to fL
andbeyond fH. The band b/w fL and fH is called pass band. Hence its bandwidth is (fL-fH). This
filter has a maximum gain at the resonant frequency (fr) which is defined as

ANALOG TO DIGITAL AND DIGITAL TO ANLOG CONVERTER

AIM
To design and test a 4 bit Successive approximation type A/D and 3 bit R-2R ladder D/A
converter
THEORY
The analog to digital converter is normally required at the input of a digital system for
the measurement or control of analog quantities. In A/D converters, the input is an analog
voltage and the output is a digital code. A/D converters are more complex and time consuming
than D/A converters.
A/D converters can be designed with or without the use of D/A converters as part of
their circuitry. The commonly used types of A/D converters are
(a) Successive- approximation converter
(b) Counting or digital ramp converter.

D/A
THEORY
The decoder is one, which converts the digital information from the digital processing
unit to analog output. We call the digital to analog converter or in short D/A converter. The D/A
converter decode the digital information to analog form.
The input to a digital to analog converter is a binary signal available in parallel form.
These digital signals are available at the output of the latches or registers and correspond to
logic 0 and logic 1. These voltages are not directly applied to the converter but are used to
operate digitally controlled switches. The switch is put into two positions depending on the
digital signal 1 or 0, which connect the fixed voltages. Let us suppose we want to convert the
binary form the processing unit to a 0 to 3 volts output. We must first set up a truth table for all
possible situations. The following table shows four inputs into a D/A converter.
PROCRDURE
1. Make the connections as per the circuit diagram.
2. Switch ON the power supply.
3. Set the digital input by using switches SW1 to SW8
4. The output analog equivalent for the digital data can be viewed from pin6
5. Verify the analog output theoretically by sing the formula given below
6. Repeat the steps 4 to 6 for different digital inputs
FORMULA USED

ASTABLE AND MONOSTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR
USING NE555 TIMER

AIM:
To design, construct and test the astable multivibrator and monostable multivibrator using
IC 555.
THEORY:

IC555 is a combination of linear comparators and digital flip flops. The output of
comparators is used to set/reset the FF.

The output FF circuit is brought out through an amplifier stage. The FF output is also
give to a transistor to discharge a timing capacitor.

The 555 timer has two basic operational modes: astable and monostable.
Astable operation:

When IC555 is to be configured as an astable multivibrator, both the trigger and


threshold inputs (pins 2 and 6) to the two comparators are connected together and to
the external capacitor.

The capacitor charges toward the supply voltage through the two resistors, R1 and R2.
The discharge pin (7) connected to the internal transistor is connected to the junction of
those two resistors.
Monostable operation:

The trigger input is initially high (about 1/3 of +V). When a negative-going trigger pulse
is applied to the trigger input, the threshold on the lower comparator is exceeded.

The lower comparator, therefore, sets the flip-flop. That causes T1 to cut off, acting as
an open circuit. The setting of the flip-flop also causes a positive-going output level
which is the beginning of the output timing pulse.

The capacitor now begins to charge through the external resistor. As soon as the charge
on the capacitor equal 2/3 of the supply voltage, the upper comparator triggers and
resets the control flip-flop.

VEL TECHDR.RR&DR.SR TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY

Page 48

U4ECB10

LINEAR INTEGRATED CIRCUITS LAB

That terminates the output pulse which switches back to zero. At this time, T1 again
conducts thereby discharging the capacitor.

Whenever a trigger pulse is applied to the input, the 555 will generate its singleduration output pulse. Depending upon the values of external resistance and
capacitance used, the output timing pulse may be adjusted and the duration of the
output pulse is approximately equal to T = 1.1 x R x C

ASTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR:
T= 0.693(RA+2RB) C
0.7 (RA+2RB) C
Let RA=RB=R

Assume R=10K and C = 0.1F for T=2.1msec
Also TON = 0.7(RA+RB)C =1.4msec

FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER USING PLL IC

AIM:
To study the operation of NE 565 PLL as a frequency multiplier.
THEORY:
Figure shows the block diagram of a frequency multiplier using the 565 PLL. The frequency
counter is inserted between the VCO and the phase comparator. Since the output of the divider
is locked to the input frequency fIN, the VCO is actually running at a multiple of the input
frequency.
The desired amount of multiplication can be obtained by selecting a proper divide by N
network, where N is an integer. For example, to obtain the output frequency fOUT =5 fIN, a divide
by N = 5 network is needed. The 4 bit binary counter (7490) is configured as a divide by 5
circuit. The transistor Q is used as a driver stage to increase the driving capability of the NE 565.
C3 is used to eliminate possible oscillation. C2 should be large enough to stabilize the VCO
frequency.

DESIGN OF INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER

AIM:To design an Instrumentation Amplifie for the given specifications using Op-Amp IC 741.
THEORY:
An instrumentationamplifier is a type of differential amplifier that has been outfitted with input
buffers, which eliminate the need for input impedance matching and thus make the amplifier
particularly suitable for use in measurement and test equipment.
Although the instrumentation amplifier is usually shown schematically identical to a standard
op-amp, the electronic instrumentation amp is almost always internally composed of 3 opamps. These are arranged so that there is one op-amp to buffer each input (+,), and one to
produce the desired output with adequate impedance matching for the function.

The most commonly used instrumentation amplifier circuit is shown in the figure. The gain of

impedance
nce because of the buffers. The buffer gain could be increased by putting resistors
between the buffer inverting inputs and ground to shunt away some of the negative feedback;
however, the single resistor Rgain between the two inverting inputs is a much more
mo elegant
method: it increases the differential
differential-mode
mode gain of the buffer pair while leaving the commoncommon
mode gain equal to 1. This increases the common
common-mode
mode rejection ratio (CMRR) of the circuit
and also enables the buffers to handle much larger common
common-mode signals without clipping than
would be the case if they were separate and had the same gain. Another benefit of the method
is that it boosts the gain using a single resistor rather than a pair, thus avoiding a resistorresistor
matching problem (although the two R1s need to be matched), and very conveniently allowing
the gain of the circuit to be changed by changing the value of a single resistor. A set of switchswitch
selectable resistors or even a potentiometer can be used for Rgain, providing easy changes to the
gain of the circuit, without the complexity of having to switch matched pairs of resistors.
The ideal common-mode
mode gain of an instrumentation amplifier is zero. In the circuit shown,
common-mode
mode gain is caused by mismatches in the values of the equally
equally-numbered
numbered resistors
and by the mis-match
match in common mode gains of the two input op
op-amps.
amps. Obtaining very closely
matched resistors is a significant difficulty in fabricating these circuits, as is optimizing the
common mode performance of the input op
op-amps.

VOLTAGE REGULATORS

AIM:
1) To design a adjustable voltage regulator using IC LM 317 to vary the output from 1V to
4V.
2) To design a voltage regulator to give output voltage of 4-5V using LM723.
THEORY:

The LM317 is an extremely common positive voltage regulator - many laboratory


supplies and other equipment are based on it. It can produce any amount between
1.25V and up to 35V by adjusting the resistance between its adjustment pin and ground.

The internal circuitry of the LM317 can only handle 1.5 A of current as an absolute
maximum.

The LM317 is a linear regulator. This means that it dissipates the excess voltage as heat,
with more heat produced as the voltage is set lower and lower. Thus heat sink must be
mounted on the regulator that is capable of dissipating the heat produced.

The LM723/LM723C is a voltage regulator designed primarily for series regulator


applications. By itself, it will supply output currents up to 150 mA;

but external transistors can be added to provide any desired load current. The circuit
features extremely low standby current drain, and provision is made for either linear or
fold back current limiting.

The LM723/LM723C is also useful in a wide range of other applications such as a shunt
regulator, a current regulator or a temperature controller.

STUDY OF SMPS

AIM: Study the power supply ( SMPS) and their voltage levels by multi-meter with proper
attention to measure various voltage .
THEORY:
Switch mode power supplies (SMPS) have become the architecture of choice for power
conversion because of their economy, higher efficiency and lighter weight. In this lab you will
investigate the basic operating principles of a switch mode power supply, and then design,
build and test a simple supply given a few basic components.
A considerable amount of background theory and design advice is included following the
Procedure description below.

Design Objective:
Your objective will be to build either a 5V or 12V, 5W regulated supply with a maximum
1% ripple at full load, maintained over a 10% input voltage variation. If the available
components are such that you must design for a slightly different output voltage, discuss this
change in objective with your supervisor. It is more important that you understand the design
process and characterize the supply you build than to have a specific output voltage. Note that
you will also have to test your supply to verify the specifications, and to characterize other
parameters such as its response to step changes in load current and how long it can maintain
the output if the input supply is interrupted.
SMPS Investigation and Analysis
The first part of this lab involves investigating the principles of operation of a SMPS and the
parameters that you will employ in the design.
Design and testing of a regulated SMPS
For the remainder of this lab, you will be asked to design, build and test a regulated Switch
Mode Power Supply. The restrictions you will be required to work within are as follows:
the input must be from the 120/24VAC step-down transformers available in the
laboratory
the integrated regulator circuit available to you is from STMicroelectronicss
UC384xB family: specifically, the UC3845B

a switch mode transformer is available: TS223-Y01MS (or a TS227-Y05MS,


TS202-Y03MS, or TS222-Y01MS) from Coil Winding Specialists. While these vary
slightly in specifications, they are all designed for approximately the same output
power and voltages.
Remaining components must be from laboratory stock (A reasonable selection of
suitable components is available. Some parameters may have to be adjusted slightly to
conform to component specs.)

RESULT:
The study of SMPS is done by measuring the quantities.

DESIGN OF FILTERS USING PSPICE

AIM: To simulate the Active filters circuits using PSPICE.


THEORY:
LOWPASS FILTER:
An improved filter response can be obtained by using a second order active filter. A second
order filter consists of two RC pairs and has a roll-off rate of -40 dB/decade. A general second
order filter (Sallen Kay filter) is used to analyze different LP, HP, BP and BSF.
HIGHPASS FILTER:
The high pass filter is the complement of the low pass filter. Thus the high pass filter canbe
obtained by interchanging R and C in the circuit of low pass configuration. A high pass
filterallows only frequencies above a certain bread point to pass through and it terminates the
lowfrequency components. The range of frequencies beyond its lower cut off frequency fL is
calledstop band.
BANDPASS FILTER:
The BPF is the combination of high and low pass filters and this allows a specified range of
frequencies to pass through. It has two stop bands in range of frequencies between 0 to fL
andbeyond fH. The band b/w fL and fH is called pass band. Hence its bandwidth is (fL-fH). This
filter has a maximum gain at the resonant frequency (fr) which is defined as

DESIGN:
Given: fH = 1 KHz = 1/ (2RC)
Let C = 0.1 F, R = 1.6 K
For n = 2, (damping factor) = 1.414,
Pass band gain = Ao = 3 - =3 1.414 = 1.586.
Transfer function of second order Butterworth LPF as:
1.586
H(s) = --------------------------S2 + 1.414 s + 1
Now

Ao = 1 + (Rf / R1) = 1.586 = 1 + 0.586

Let Ri = 10 K, then Rf = 5.86 K


1.Design the second order high pass filter at a cut off frequency of 1khz with passband gain of 2.
2.Design a wideband pass filter with fL =200Hz,fH =1kHz and pass band gain=4
3.Design a second order low pass filter at high cutoff frequency of 1kHz.
