  1. Agenda and Notes • Today, during class! 9:30 a.m. Boeing Space and Intelligence Systems (Matt and Matt) • 4 extra credit assignments available at the bottom of http://hibp.ecse.rpi.edu/~connor/education/EILinks.html • Friday, Oct. 3 (EMPAC!), Open shop 2:00-5:00 p.m

  2. Experiment 4 (continued) Part A. Op Amp Basics Review Part B. Adder and Differential Op Amp Part C. Op Amp Limitations

  3. What is an op amp? • An inexpensive, versatile, integrated circuit that is another basic building block to electronics (made of resistors and transistors) • Amplifier that has • Large open loop gain (intrinsic) • Differential input stage, inverting input (-) and non-inverting input (+) • One output • Uses components in the feedback network to control the relationship between the input and output

  4. What does an Op-Amp do? • Performs “operations” on an input signal • Amplification • Buffering • Integration/Differentiation • Addition/Subtraction

  5. Open Loop/Closed Loop and Feedback • Open loop • Very high gain (intrinsic gain) • Poor stability • Open loop gain assumed to be infinite for ideal op amps • Closed loop • Uses feedback to add stability • Reduces gain of the amplifier • Output is applied back into the inverting (-) input • Most amplifiers are used in this configuration Feedback - Open loop gain Vout Vin Σ +

  6. Golden Rules of Op-Amp Analysis • Rule 1: VA = VB • The output attempts to do whatever is necessary to make the voltage difference between the inputs zero. • The op-amp “looks” at its input terminals and swings its output terminal around so that the external feedback network brings the input differential to zero. • Rule 2: IA = IB = 0 • The inputs draw no current • The inputs are connected to what is essentially an open circuit

  7. Steps in Analyzing Op-Amp Circuits 1) Remove the op-amp from the circuit and draw two circuits (one for the + and one for the – input terminals of the op amp). 2) Write equations for the two circuits. 3) Simplify the equations using the rules for op amp analysis and solve for Vout/Vin • Why can the op-amp be removed from the circuit? • There is no input current, so the connections at the inputs are open circuits. • The output acts like a new source. We can replace it by a source with a voltage equal to Vout.

  8. The Inverting Amplifier

  9. The Non-Inverting Amplifier

  10. The Voltage Follower High input impedance Low output impedance Buffer circuit

  11. Ideal Differentiator Time domain (like oscilloscope) Amplitude changes by a factor of RfCin Frequency domain (like AC sweep)

  12. Comparison of ideal and non-ideal Both differentiate in sloped region. Both curves are idealized, real output is less well behaved. A real differentiator works at frequencies below wc=1/RinCin

  13. Ideal Integrator Time domain (like oscilloscope) Amplitude changes by a factor of 1/RinCf What happens to a capacitor at DC? Frequency domain (like AC sweep)

  14. Miller (non-ideal) Integrator • If we add a resistor to the feedback path, we get a device that behaves better, but does not integrate at all frequencies.

  15. Comparison of ideal and non-ideal Both integrate in sloped region. Both curves are idealized, real output is less well behaved. A real integrator works at frequencies above wc=1/RfCf

  16. Comparison • The op amp circuit will invert the signal and multiply the mathematical amplitude by RC (differentiator) or 1/RC (integrator)

  17. In Class Problem • Which op amp below has a gain of +5? • Op amp Analysis • What are the golden rules for op amp analysis? • For the circuit to the right draw two circuits (one for – input and one for + input) • Write the equation for each circuit a) b) c)

  18. In Class Problem • Which op amp below has a gain of +5?All of them! Topology may look different but the functionality is the same! • Op amp Analysis • What are the golden rules for op amp analysis? • For the circuit to the right draw two circuits (one for – input and one for + input) • Write the equation for each circuit

  19. Op Amps to know • Inverting • Non-inverting • Voltage Follower • Differentiator • Integrator • Adder • Differential (Subtracting)

  20. Adders Output signal is the sum of the input signals (V1 and V2).

  21. Weighted Adders • Unlike differential amplifiers, adders are also useful when R1≠ R2. • This is called a “Weighted Adder” • A weighted adder allows you to combine several different signals with a different gain on each input. • You can use weighted adders to build audio mixers and digital-to-analog converters.

  22. Analysis of weighted adder I1 If I2

  23. Differential (or Difference) Amplifier

  24. Analysis of Difference Amplifier(1)

  25. Analysis of Difference Amplifier(2) Note that step 2(-) here is very much like step 2(-) for the inverting amplifier and step 2(+) uses a voltage divider.

  26. Op-Amp Limitations • Model of a Real Op-Amp • Saturation • Current Limitations • Slew Rate

  27. Internal Model of a Real Op-amp • Zin is the input impedance (very large ≈ 2 MΩ) • Zout is the output impedance (very small ≈ 75 Ω) • Aol is the open-loop gain

  28. Saturation • Even with feedback, • any time the output tries to go above V+ the op-amp will saturate positive. • Any time the output tries to go below V- the op-amp will saturate negative. • Ideally, the saturation points for an op-amp are equal to the power voltages, in reality they are 1-2 volts less. Ideal: -9V < Vout < +9V Real: -8V < Vout < +8V

  29. Additional Limitations • Current Limits  If the load on the op-amp is very small, • Most of the current goes through the load • Less current goes through the feedback path • Op-amp cannot supply current fast enough • Circuit operation starts to degrade • Slew Rate • The op-amp has internal current limits and internal capacitance. • There is a maximum rate that the internal capacitance can charge, this results in a maximum rate of change of the output voltage. • This is called the slew rate.

  30. Analog Computers (circa. 1970) Analog computers use op-amp circuits to do real-time mathematical operations (solve differential equations).

  31. Using an Analog Computer Users would hard wire adders, differentiators, etc. using the internal circuits in the computer to perform whatever task they wanted in real time.

  32. Analog vs. Digital Computers • In the 60’s and 70’s analog and digital computers competed. • Analog • Advantage: real time • Disadvantage: hard wired • Digital • Advantage: more flexible, could program jobs • Disadvantage: slower • Digital wins • they got faster • they became multi-user • they got even more flexible and could do more than just math

  33. Now analog computers live in museums with old digital computers: Mind Machine Web Museum: http://userwww.sfsu.edu/%7Ehl/mmm.html Analog Computer Museum: http://dcoward.best.vwh.net/analog/index.html
