THEORY:
Inverting Amplifier:
If the signal is applied to the inverting input terminal and the circuit is
shown in fig. This is most widely used of all the Op-amp circuits. The output voltage (V o) is fed
back to the inverting input terminal through the R f - R1 network where Rf is feedback resistor.
Input signal (Vi) is applied to the inverting input terminal through R 1 and the non-inverting input
terminal is grounded.
The gain of the inverting amplifier is
Gain (Av) = Vo / Vi =

- Rf

/ R1

Negative Sign indicates a phase shift of 180 between Vi and Vo.

Linear Integrated Circuits Lab

3 / 117

Therefore Vo is equal to
Vo =

-(Rf

/ R1 )Vi

Non-inverting Amplifier:
If the signal is applied to the Non-inverting input terminal and the feedback is given shown in fig.
The circuit amplifies without inverting the input signal. Such a circuit is called Non-inverting
amplifier. It is also called as negative feedback system as output is being fed back to the inverting
terminal. The gain of the inverting amplifier is
Gain Av = Vo / Vi = 1 + (Rf / R1)
The gain can be adjusted to unity or more, by proper selection of resistors R f and R1. Therefore
Vo is equal to
Vo = [1

+ (Rf

/ R1)] Vi

Compared to the inverting amplifier, the input resistance of the Non-inverting amplifier
is high as the op-amp draws negligible current from the signal source.

Input Offset Voltage and Input Bias Current:


The input offset voltage can range from micro volts to milli volts and can be either
polarity. The Input Offset Voltages across R 1 and R2 should be same Voltages VR1= VR2. Bipolar
Op amps have lower offset voltages than JFET or CMOS types. The offset voltage is modeled in
series with one of the Op amp input terminals.
Depending on the type of input transistor, the bias current can flow in or out of the input
terminals. The input current is modeled as current sources, Ib1 and Ib2, in parallel with the
negative and positive input terminals respectively. The magnitudes can range from A down to
pA. Generally speaking, JFET or CMOS op amps have smaller bias currents than BJT types.
Although Ib1 and Ib2 are similar in magnitude, there not exactly the same. This average, called
the Average Input Bias current, is described by
Ib1= Input Offset Voltage across R1 / R1
2= Input Offset Voltage across R2 / R2
The average of theIbcurrent
entering in to the (-) input and (+) input is referred to as input bias

current. It is 200na maximum for IC 741.


Average Input Bias Current = [(Ib1) + (Ib2)] / 2

Voltage Follower:
Used as a buffer amplifier, to eliminate loading effects or to interface impedances
(connecting a device with a high source impedance to a device with a low input impedance)
Vo = Vi
Zin = infinitive. (Realistically, the differential input impedance of the op-amp itself, 1 M to 1 T)
In voltage follower, the output voltage is equal to input voltage both in magnitude and
phase. It is also defined as that the output voltage follows the input voltage exactly. It is also
referred as unity gain amplifier. If Rf = 0 and R1 = in the non inverting amplifier, we get the
modified circuit of voltage follower. It is used as buffer for impedance matching.

Slew Rate:
Slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage caused by a step
input voltage. Slew rate limits the response speed of all large signal wave shapes. Slew rate
causes remarkable distortion for non sinusoidal waveform of higher frequencies. Limitations in
slew rate capability can give rise to non linear effects in electronic amplifiers. It is usually
specified in V/ s.
SLEW RATE = 2fV (V/ s)
Where, f is frequency and V is amplitude of the signal.

Input offset current:
The algebraic difference between the current into the inverting and non-inverting
terminals is referred to as input offset current Iio. Mathematically it is represented as Iio =
|IB+- IB-|
Where IB+ is the current into the non-inverting input terminals.
IB- is the current into the inverting input terminals.

This is the voltage required to be amplified at the input for making output voltage
to zero volts.

3. In response to square wave input, the output of an op-amp changed from 3V to +3V over a
time interval of 0.25s. Determine the slew rate of the op-amp.
(May 06/08)
Slew rate = dvc/dt / max
= Vo/t
= 6V / 0.25S
= 24 V/S
4. What is an operational amplifier?
The operational amplifier is a multi-terminal device, which is quite complex
internally. An operational amplifier is a direct coupled high gain amplifier usually
consisting of one or more differential amplifiers and usually followed by a level translator
and an output stage. An operational amplifier is available as a single integrated circuit
package. It is a versatile device that can be used to amplify dc as well as ac input signals
and was originally designed for computing such mathematical functions.
5. Define CMRR of an operational amplifier?
The common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) can be defined as the ratio of differential
gain to common mode gain.
CMRR = |Ad/Ac|

6. Write down the characteristics of ideal operational amplifier?


a. Open loop voltage gain, (AOL) =
b. Input impedance (Ri) =
c. Output impedance (Ro) = 0
d. Bandwidth (BW) =
e. Zero offset Vo = 0, when V1 = V2 = 0
7. Define slew rate?
Slew rate can be defined as the maximum rate of change of output voltage of opamp with respect to time. It is expressed as S = (dVo / dt) max in V/Sec.
Where slew rate S = 2 f Vm in V/Sec.
8. What is the cause for slew rate and how it can be made faster?
There is a capacitor within or outside an op-amp to prevent oscillation. It is this
capacitor which prevents the output voltage from responding immediately to a fast
changing input .The slew rate can be made faster by having a higher current or a small
compensating capacitor.
9. What are the methods to improve slew rate?
The slew rate can be improved with higher closed-loop gain and dc supply
voltage. But the slew rate also varies with temperature. i.e., slew rate decreases with
increase in temperature.
Another method for improving slew rate is, the rate at which voltage across the capacitor
increases is gain by,dVc/dt = I / C.
Where, I is the maximum current furnished by the op-amp to the capacitor C.
From the equation it is clear that for a higher slew rate, op-amp should have either a
higher current or a small value of capacitor.

THEORY:
Integrator produces a voltage output proportional to the product (multiplication) of
the input voltage and time; and the differentiator (not to be confused with differential)
produces a voltage output proportional to the input voltage's rate of change.

Differentiator:
Capacitance can be defined as the measure of a capacitor's opposition to changes in
voltage. The greater the capacitance, the more the opposition. Capacitors oppose voltage
change by creating current in the circuit: that is, they either charge or discharge in
response to a change in applied voltage. So, the more capacitance a capacitor has, the
greater its charge or discharge current will be for any given rate of voltage change across it.
The equation for this is quite simple:

i = C (dv/dt)
Linear Integrated Circuits Lab

14 / 117

The dv/dt fraction is a calculus expression representing the rate of voltage changes
over time.
Capacitor current moves through the feedback resistor, producing a drop across it,
which is the same as the output voltage. A linear, positive rate of input voltage change will
result in a steady negative voltage at the output of the Op-amp. Conversely, a linear,
negative rate of input voltage change will result in a steady positive voltage at the output of
the op-amp. The faster the rate of voltage changes at the input (either positive or negative),
the greater the voltage at the output.
The formula for determining voltage output for the differentiator is as follows:

Vout = -RC d/dt (Vin)

Integrator:
Here, the op-amp circuit would generate an output voltage proportional to the
magnitude and duration that an input voltage signal has deviated from 0 volts. Stated
differently, a constant input signal would generate a certain rate of change in the output
voltage: differentiation in reverse. To do this, all we have to do is swap the capacitor and
resistor in the previous circuit:
A simple low pass RC circuit can also work as an Integrator when time constant is
very large. This requires very large values of R and C. The components R and C cannot be
made infinitely large because of practical limitations. However in the op-amp integrator by
Millers theorem, the effective input capacitance becomes Cf (1-Av), where Av is the gain of
the Op-amp. The Gain (Av) is the infinite for an ideal Op-amp, so the effective time
constant of the Op-amp Integrator becomes very large which results perfect integration.
The integrator produces a voltage output proportional to the product (multiplication) of the
input voltage and time
However, if we apply a constant, positive voltage to the input, the Op-amp output
will fall negative at a linear rate, in an attempt to produce the changing voltage across the
Linear Integrated Circuits Lab

15 / 117

capacitor necessary to maintain the current established by the voltage difference across the
resistor. Conversely, a constant, negative voltage at the input results in a linear, rising
(positive) voltage at the output. The output voltage rate-of-change will be proportional to
the value of the input voltage.
The formula for determining voltage output for the integrator is as follows:

1. What are the main drawbacks of ideal differentiator?


At high frequency, differentiators may become unstable and break into oscillation. The
input impedance i.e. (1/C1) decreases with increase in frequency, thereby making the
circuit sensitive to high frequency noise.
2. What are the steps to be followed while designing a good differentiator?
Choose fa equal to highest frequency of the input signal. Assume a practical value of C1
(<1F) and then calculate Rf.
Choose fb=10fa (Say). Now calculate the values of R1 and C1.
R1C1 = RfCf.
3. What are the main drawbacks of ideal integrator circuit?
At low frequencies such as dc ( 0) the gain becomes infinite.
When the op-amp saturates i.e. the capacitor is fully charged it behaves like an open
circuit.

THEORY:
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. Band pass filter is a combination of High pass and
Low pass filter. A Band pass filter is basically a frequency selector. It allows one
particular band of frequencies to pass. Its pass band between two cut off frequencies
fH and fL. The pass band which is between fH and fL is called Bandwidth of the filter

An instrumentation amplifier is a type of differential amplifier that has been


specifically designed to have characteristics suitable for use in measurement and test
equipment. These characteristics include very low DC offset, low drift, low noise, very high
open-loop gain, very high common-mode rejection ratio, and very high input impedances.
They are used where great accuracy and stability of the circuit both short- and long-term
are required.
The most commonly used instrumentation amplifier circuit is shown in the figure. The gain
of the circuit is

The ideal common-mode gain of an instrumentation amplifier is zero. In the circuit shown,
common-mode gain is caused by mismatches in the values of the equally numbered resistors
and by the non-zero common mode gains of the two input op-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-amps.

THEORY:
A phase shift oscillator is a simple sine wave electronic oscillator. It contains an
inverting amplifier, and a feedback filter, which 'shifts' the phase by 180 degrees at the
oscillation frequency.
The filter must be designed so that at frequencies above and below the oscillation
frequency, either more or less than 180 degrees shifts the signal. This results in constructive
superposition for signals at the oscillation frequencies, and destructive superposition for all
other frequencies.
The mathematics for calculating the oscillation frequency and oscillation criteria for this
circuit are surprisingly complex, due to each R-C stage loading the previous ones. The

THEORY:
A Wien bridge oscillator is a type of electronic oscillator that generates sine waves
without having any input source. It can output a large range of frequencies. The bridge
comprises four resistors and two capacitors. The circuit is based on a network originally
developed by Max Wien in 1891.
In Wien bridge oscillator, wien bridge circuit is connected between the amplifier
input terminals and output terminals. The bridge has a series RC network in one arm and
parallel network in the adjoining arm. In the remaining 2 arms of the bridge resistors
R1and Rf are connected. To maintain oscillations total phase shift around the circuit must
be zero and loop gain unity. First condition occurs only when the bridge is balanced.
Assuming that the resistors and capacitors are equal in value, the resonant frequency of
balanced bridge is given by / the frequency of oscillation is given by:

2. Why there is no phase shift provided in the feedback network in Wein-Bridge oscillator?
(Apr 2005)
In Wein-bridge oscillator, the feedback signal is connected to the (+) input terminal so
that, the op-amp is working as a non-inverting amplifier, which produces 0 degree or 360
degree phase shift.. Therefore the feedback network need not provide any phase shift.

THEORY:
Monostable multivibrator (MMV) has one stable state and one quasi-stable state.
The circuit remains in its stable state till an external triggering pulse causes a transition to
the quasi-stable state. The circuit comes back to its stable state after a time period T. Thus
it generates a single output pulse in response to an input pulse and is referred to as a oneshot or single shot.
Monostable multivibrator circuit illustrated in figure is obtained by modifying
the astable multivibrator circuit by connecting a diode D1 across capacitor C so as to
clamp vc at vd during positive excursion.
Under steady-state condition, this circuit will remain in its stable state with the
output VOUT = +VOUT or +Vz and the capacitor C is clamped at the voltage VD(on-voltage of
diode VD = 0.7 V). The voltage V D must be less than VOUT for Vin < 0. The circuit can be
switched to the other state by applying a negative pulse with amplitude greater than
VOUT VD to the non-inverting (+) input terminal.
When a trigger pulse with amplitude greater than V OUT VD is applied, Vin goes
positive causing a transition in the state of the circuit to -Vout. The capacitor C now
charges exponentially with a time constant = RfC toward V OUT (diode Dl being reversebiased). When capacitor voltage Vc becomes more negative than VOUT, Vin becomes
negative and, therefore, output swings back to + VOUT (steady- state output). The capacitor
now charges towards + VOUT till Vc attain VD and capacitor C becomes clamped at VD. The

Linear Integrated Circuits Lab

55 / 117

trigger pulse, capacitor voltage waveform and output voltage waveform are shown in
figures respectively.
The width of the trigger pulse T must be much smaller than the duration of the
output pulse generated i.e. TP T. For reliable operation the circuit should not be triggered
again before T.

THEORY:
The IC555 timer is an 8 pin IC that can be connected to external components for Astable
operation. The simplified block diagram is drawn. The OP-AMP has threshold and control
inputs. Whenever the threshold voltage exceeds the control voltage, the high output from
the OP AMP will set the flip-flop. The collector of discharge transistor goes to pin 7. When
this pin is connected to an external trimming capacitor, a high Q output from the flip flop
will saturate the transistor and discharge the capacitor. When Q is low the transistor opens
and the capacitor charges.
The complementary signal out of the flip-flop goes to pin 3 and output. When
external reset pin is grounded it inhibits the device. The on off feature is useful in many
application. The lower OP- AMP inverting terminal input is called the trigger because of
the voltage divider. The non-inverting input has a voltage of +Vcc/3, the OP-Amp output
goes high and resets the flip flop.

THEORY:
A Monostable Multivibrator has one stable state and a quasistable state. When it is
triggered by an external agency it switches from the stable state to quasistable state and
returns back to stable state.

The time during which it states in quasistable state is

determined from the time constant RC. When a continuous pulse triggers it it generates a
square wave. A pair of regeneratively coupled active devices, resistance devices and opamps can realize Monostable Multi vibrator.

Procedure:
The connections are given as per the circuit diagram.
Measure the free running frequency of VCO at pin 4, with the input signal Vi set equal
to zero. Compare it with the calculated value = 0.25 / (RT CT).
Now apply the input signal of 1 VPP square wave at a 1 KHz to pin 2. Connect one
channel of the scope to pin 2 and display this signal on the scope.
Gradually increase the input frequency till the PLL is locked to the input frequency.
This frequency f1 gives the lower end of the capture range. Go on increasing the input
frequency, till PLL tracks the input signal, say, to a frequency f2.This frequency f2 gives
the upper end of the lock range. If input frequency is increased further, the loop will get
unlocked.
Now gradually decrease the input frequency till the PLL is again locked. This is the
frequency f3, the upper end of the capture range. Keep on decreasing the input frequency
until the loop is unlocked. This frequency f4 gives the lower end of the lock range.
The lock range fL = (f2 f4). Compare it with the calculated value of 7.8 fo /12.
Also the capture range is fc = (f3 f1).Compare it with the calculated value of capture
range.

1. Define voltage to frequency conversion factor kv?

iv.

3. What is a voltage-controlled oscillator?
A voltage controlled oscillator is an oscillator circuit in which the frequency of
oscillation can be controlled by an externally applied voltage. It provides the linear
relationship between the applied voltage and the oscillation frequency.
VCO is a free running multivibrator and operates at a set of frequency fo called free
running frequency. This frequency is determined by an external timing capacitor and an
external resistor. It can also be shifted to either side by applying a dc control voltage Vc to
an appropriate terminal of the IC.The frequency deviation is directly proportional to the dc
control voltage and hence it is called a Voltage Controlled Oscillator.
4. Define capture range of a PLL?
The range of frequency over which the PLL can acquire lock with an input signal is
called capture range. The PLL cannot acquire a signal outside the capture range, but once
captured, it will hold on till the signal frequency goes beyond the lock-in range, larger capture
range is required.
5. Why an amplifier is also called an error amplifier?
An amplifier also called an error amplifier in control theory, which accepts the signal
Xd and yields the output signal X0=a.Xd, where a is the forward gain of the amplifier is called
the open-loop gain of the circuit.
3. Explain how frequency doublers can be realized using analog multiplier.
The multiplication of two sine waves of the same frequency, but of possibly
different amplitude and phase allows to double frequency and to directly measure real
power.
A PLL with a free running frequency of 1KHzis connected to a variable
frequency oscillator. The frequency of oscillator is gradually increased and when its
frequency was 850 Hz the PLL got locked. The frequency of oscillator was decreased and
it went out of lock for the oscillator frequency of 800 Hz.

multiplier.
It is a multiplier circuit with two inputs being both positive and both negative, then the
multiplier is called as four-quadrant multiplier
8. What is a two quadrant multiplier?
It is a multiplier one input must be held positive and other can change to positive
or negative it is called two quadrant multiplier.

THEORY:
LM317 is the standard part number for an integrated three-terminal
adjustable linear voltage regulator. LM317 is a positive voltage regulator supporting
input voltage of 3V to 40V and output voltage between 1.25V and 37V. A typical current
rating is 1.5A although several lower and higher current models are available. Variable
output voltage is achieved by using a potentiometer or a variable voltage from another
source to apply a control voltage to the control terminal. LM317 also has a built-in current
limiter to prevent the output current from exceeding the rated current, and LM317 will
automatically reduce its output current if an overheat condition occurs under load. LM317
is manufactured by many companies, including National Semiconductor, Fairchild
Semiconductor, and STMicroelectronics.
Although LM317 is an adjustable regulator, it is sometimes preferred for highprecision fixed voltage applications instead of the similar LM78xx devices because the
LM317 is designed with superior output tolerances. For a fixed voltage application, the
control pin will typically be biased with a fixed resistor network, a Zener diode network, or
a fixed control voltage from another source. Manufacturer datasheets provide standard
Linear Integrated Circuits Lab

83 / 117

configurations for achieving various design applications, including the use of a


pass transistor to achieve regulated output currents in excess of what the LM317 alone can
provide.
LM317 is available in a wide range of package forms for different applications including
heatsink mounting and surface-mount applications. Common form factors for high-current
applications include TO-220 with part number LM317T and TO-3 with part number
LM317K. LM317 is capable of dissipating a large amount of heat at medium to high
current loads and the use of a heatsink is recommended to maximize the lifespan and
power-handling capability.
LM337 is the negative voltage complement to LM317 and the specifications and function
are essentially identical, except that the regulator must receive a control voltage and act on
an input voltage that are below the ground reference point instead of above it.

LM317 / LM338 / LM350 Voltage Regulator Calculator


You can use this Voltage Regulator Calculator to vary the value of the program resistor
(R1) and output set resistor (R2) and calculate the output voltage for the LM317 / LM338 /
LM350 family of three terminal adjustable regulators. This Voltage Regulator Calculator
will work for most voltage regulators with a reference voltage (VREF) of 1.25. Typically, the
program resistor (R1) is 240 ohms for the LM117, LM317, LM138 and LM150 regulators.
For the LM338 and LM350 regulators, 120 ohms is typically used for R1. However, other
values such as 150 or 220 ohms can also be used for R1. Refer to the adjustable regulator
data sheets below for more information about these voltage regulators.
To determine the output voltage, enter values for the program (R1) and set (R2) resistors
and hit the "Calculate" button.

The three terminal regulator discussed on previous experiment have the limitations
are,

2. Output Voltage (positive or negative) is fixed.
These limitations have been overcome in the 723 general purpose regulators
which can be adjusted over a wide range of both positive and negative regulated
voltage. This IC is inherently low current device, but can be boosted to provide 5
amps or more current by connecting external components.

A simple positive Low voltage (2V-7V) regulator can be made using 723 as shown

VREF = 7V, VOUT = VNI = 7 R2 / (R1+R2), V+ = +Vcc, R3 = R1||R2, V- = Gnd.

High Voltage Type:


A simple positive Low voltage (7V-30V) regulator can be made using 723 as
shown in Circuit diagram. The voltage at the NI terminal of the error amplifier due
to R1R2 divider is,
VOUT = VREF (1 + (R1 / R2))
VREF = 7V, VOUT = 7 (1+ (R1 / R2)), V+ = +Vcc, R3 = R1R2, V- = Gnd.

i. Line regulation: It is defined as the percentage change in the output voltage for a
change in input voltage.
ii. Load regulation: It is defined as the change in the output voltage for a change in
load current.
3. Why is it that a switching regulator has a higher efficiency than a series regulator?
Switching regulators, operate the power transistor as a high frequency on/off switch,
so that the power transistor does not conduct current continuously. This gives improved
efficiency over series regulator.
