I NTRODUCTI ON:
The operational amplifier is probably the most frequently-used
linear integrated circuit available. There are two basic configurations for
operational amplifier circuits: inverting amplifier, and the non-inverting
amplifier. Operational amplifiers ideally have infinite open-loop gain
and infinite open-loop input resistance. For closed-loop, the resistor
provides negative feedback, whereby a portion of the output voltage is
subtracted from the input. Fig. (E14-1) shows a typical inverting
amplifier configuration. An ideal inverting amplifiers voltage gain is
determined by:
A
v
=
I
f
R
R
(E14-1)
Where:
R
1
is the input resistor
R
f
is the feedback resistor
As usual, the minus sign signifies phase inversion.
Fig. (E14-2) shows a typical non-inverting inverting amplifier
configuration. The voltage gain of an ideal non-inverting amplifier is
given by:
A

The voltage follower shown in Fig. (E14-3) is actually a special case of
a non-inverting amplifier. Note from the above equation that as R
f

approaches 0 (short) and as R
1
approaches (open), the voltage gain of
the non-inverting amplifier approaches 1.

OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER

PURPOSE AND BACKGROUND:

OP-AMP DIFFERENTIATOR AND INTRGRATOR
The purpose of this experiment is to demonstrate the operation of
both a differentiator and an integrator using an op-amp. A differentiator is
a circuit that calculates the instantaneous slope of the line at every point
on a waveform. On the other hand, an integrator computes the area
underneath the curve of a given waveform. Differentiator and integrator
are paired mathematical operations in that one has the opposite effect of
the other. For example, if you integrator a waveform and then
differentiator it, you obtain the original waveform.
