material and recombine with holes in the p-type material.

energy of visible light.

1.2 Transistors – FET vs. BJT
One of the most important characteristics of the FET is its high input impedance.
Typical ac voltage gains for BJT amplifiers are a great deal more than for FETs.
FETs are more temperature stable than BJTs, and FETs are usually smaller than BJTs, making them particularly
useful in integrated-circuit (IC) chips.

1.3 Op-amp - Introduction
• Early operational amplifiers (op-amps)
were used primarily to perform
mathematical operations such as
addition, subtraction, integration, and
differentiation—thus the term
operational.
• These early devices were constructed with
vacuum tubes and worked with high
• voltages.
• Today’s op-amps are linear integrated circuits
(ICs) that use relatively low dc supply
voltages and are reliable and inexpensive.

92
1.3 Op-amp - OP-AMPS parameters
• Common-Mode Rejection Ratio
• The common-mode rejection ratio, CMRR:
It’s the ratio of the open-loop differential voltage gain, Aol, to the common- mode gain, Acm.
• Open-loop voltage gain can range up to 200,000 (106 dB) and is not a well- controlled parameter.
• Datasheets often refer to the open-loop voltage gain as the large-signal voltage gain.
• A CMRR of 100,000, for example, means that the desired input signal (differential) is amplified 100,000
times more than the unwanted noise (common-mode).
93
1.3 Op-amp - OP-AMPS parameters
• Maximum Output Voltage Swing (VO(p-p))
• With no input signal, the output of an op-amp is ideally 0 V. This is called the quiescent output voltage.
• When an input signal is applied, the ideal limits of the peak-to-peak output signal are ±Vcc.
• In practice this ideal can be approached but never reached.
• Vopp varies with the load connected to the op-amp and increases directly
with load resistance.
Example:
Fairchild KA741
94
1.3 Op-amp - OP-AMPS parameters
• Input Bias Current • The input bias current is the dc current
required by the inputs of the amplifier to
properly operate the first stage.
• Input bias current is the average of the two
op-amp input currents
• Input Impedance
• The differential input impedance is the total resistance between the inverting and the non-inverting inputs.
• The common-mode input impedance is the resistance between each input and ground and is measured by determining
the change in bias current for a given change in common-mode input voltage.
95
1.3 Op-amp - OP-AMPS parameters
• Input Offset Current • Ideally, the two input bias currents are equal, and thus their difference is
zero.
• In a practical op-amp, the bias currents are not exactly equal.
• The input offset current, IOS, is the difference of the input bias currents,
expressed as an absolute value.
• Output Impedance
• The output impedance is the
resistance viewed from the
output terminal of the op-amp
96
1.3 Op-amp - OP-AMPS parameters
• Slew Rate • The maximum rate of change of the output voltage in response to a step
input voltage is the slew rate of an op-amp.
• The slew rate is dependent upon the high-frequency response of the
amplifier stages within the op-amp.
• Slew-rate measurement
97
1.3 Op-amp - OP-AMPS parameters
• Frequency Response
• The internal amplifier stages that make up an op-amp have voltage gains
limited by junction capacitances.
• An op-amp has no internal coupling capacitors, however; therefore, the low-frequency response extends down to dc (0
Hz).
• Noise Specification
• Noise has become a more important issue !
• Noise is defined as an unwanted signal that affects the quality of a desired
signal.
• There are two basic forms of noise.
• At low frequencies, noise is inversely proportional to the frequency; this is called
1/f noise or “pink noise”.
• Above a critical noise frequency, the noise becomes flat and is spread out
equally across the frequency spectrum; this is called “white noise”.
• The power distribution of noise is measured in
98
1.3 Op-amp - Op-amps with negative feedback
• Why Use Negative Feedback?
• Negative feedback is the process whereby a portion of the output voltage of an amplifier is returned to the input with a phase angle that
opposes (or subtracts from) the input signal.
• Open-loop voltage gain of a typical op-amp is very high.
• Therefore, an extremely small input voltage drives the op-amp into its saturated output states.
• In fact, even the input offset voltage of the op-amp can drive it into saturation.
99
1.3 Op-amp - Op-amps with negative feedback
• An op-amp can be connected using negative feedback to stabilize the gain and
increase frequency response.
• The closed-loop voltage gain is the voltage gain of an op-amp with external
feedback.
• The closed-loop voltage gain is determined by the external component values
• and can be precisely controlled by them.
• Non-inverting Amplifier

• Voltage-Follower
• Inverting Amplifier
101
1.3 Op-amp - Bias current and offset voltage
• Certain deviations from the ideal op-amp must be recognized because of their
effects on its operation
• Transistors within the op-amp must be biased so that they have the correct
values of base and collector currents and collector-to-emitter voltages.
• The ideal op-amp has no input current at its terminals; but in fact, the practical
op-amp has small input bias currents typically in the nA range.
• Also, small internal imbalances in the transistors effectively produce a small
offset voltage between the inputs.
102
1.3 Op-amp - Effect of Input Bias Current
103
1.3 Op-amp - Bias Current Compensation
• To compensate for the effect of
bias , a resistor Rc is added.
• Use of a BIFET Op-Amp to
Eliminate the Need for Bias

1.3 Op-amp - Effect of Input Offset Voltage
105
1.3 Op-amp - COMPARATORS
• Zero Level Detection
• Operational amplifiers are often used as comparators to compare the
• amplitude of one voltage with another.
• In this application, the op-amp is used in the open-loop configuration, with the input voltage on one input and a reference voltage on the
other.
• The output is always at either one of two states, indicating the greater or less than relationship between the inputs.
• Comparators provide very fast switching times.
• Comparators are often used to interface between an analog and digital circuit ( output is in one of two states).
• One application of a
comparator is to determine
when an input voltage
exceeds a certain level.
106
1.3 Op-amp - COMPARATORS
107
1.3 Op-amp - COMPARATORS
• Effects of Input Noise on Comparator
Operation
• To make the comparator less sensitive to noise, a technique uses positive
feedback, called hysteresis, can be used.
• Hysteresis means that there is a higher reference level when the input
voltage goes from a lower to higher value than when it goes from a higher
to a lower value.
• A good example of hysteresis is a common house-hold thermostat that
turns the
• furnace on at one temperature and off at another.

109
1.3 Op-amp - COMPARATORS
• Output Bounding
• The process of limiting the
output range is called
bounding.
110
1.3 Op-amp - COMPARATORS
• Comparator Applications - Analog-to-Digital (A/D) Conversion
• The simultaneous, or flash,
method of A/D conversion
uses parallel comparators to
compare the linear input
signal with various reference
voltages developed by a
voltage divider.
• When the input voltage
exceeds the reference voltage
for a given comparator, a high
level is produced on that
comparator’s output.
