EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Second Order Active Filters based on the Two-Integrator-Loop Topology To derive the two-integrator loop biquadratic circuit, or biquad, consider the high-pass transfer function We observe that the signal (ωo/s)Vhp can be obtained by passing Vhp through an integrator with a time constant equal to 1/ωo. Furthermore, passing the resulting signal through another identical integrator results in the signal (ωo2/s2)Vhp. The block diagram on the next page shows a two-integrator arrangement. King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II From It suggests that Vhp can be obtained by using the weighted summer in Fig b. Now we combine blocks a) and b) together to obtain: King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II If we try to look at the Fig c. more carefully, we’ll find that And the signal at the output of the first integrator is –(ωo/s)Vhp, which is a band-pass function, with the center-frequency gain of –KQ, Therefore, the signal at the output of the first integrator is labeled Vbp. In, a similar way, the signal at the output of the second integrator is (ωo2/s2)Vhp, which is a low-pass function, Thus, the output of the second integrator is labeled Vlp. Note that the dc gain of the low-pass filter is equal to K. Hence, the 2-integrator-loop biquad realizes 3 basic 2nd order filtering functions simultaneously, that’s why it’s called a universal active filter. King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Circuit Implementation We replace each integrator with a Miller integrator circuit having CR = 1/ωo and we replace the summer block with an op amp summing circuit that is capable of assigning both positive and negative weights to its inputs. The resulting ckt, known as the Kerwin-Huelsman-Newcomb or KHN biquad.
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II We can express the output of the summer Vhp in terms of its inputs, Vbp = –(ωo/s)Vhp and Vlp = (ωo2/s2)Vhp, as To determine all the parameters, we need to compare it to the original eq: We can match them up, term by term, and will get: King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II The KHN biquad can be used to realize notch and all-pass functions by summing weighted versions of the three outputs, LP, BP, and HP as shown. Substitute Thp, Tbp and Tlp that we found previously, we’ll get the overall transfer function from which we can see that different transmission zeros can be obtained by the appropriate selection of the values of the summing resistors. For instance, a notch is obtained by selection RB = ∞ and King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi

EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Characterization of linear, two-port networks Before we begin a discussion on the topic of oscillators, we need to study feedback. However, in order to understand how the feedback works, we also need to first learn the two-port network parameters. A two-port network has four port variables: V1, I1, V2 and I2. If the two-port network is linear, we can use two of the variables as excitation variables and the other two as response variables. For example, the network can be excited by a voltage V1 at port 1 and a voltage V2 at port 2, and the two current I1 and I2 can be measured to represent the network response. There are four parameter sets commonly used in electronics. They are the admittance (y), the impedance (z), the hybrid (h) and the inverse-hybrid (g) parameters, respectively.

Feedback Xs Xi Xo + - Xf βf What is feedback?Taking a portion of the signal arriving at the load and feeding it back to the input. What is negative feedback? Adding the feedback signal to the input so as to partially cancel the input signal to the amplifier. Doesn’t this reduce the gain? Yes, this is the price we pay for using feedback. Why use feedback?Provides a series of benefits, such as improved bandwidth, that outweigh the costs in lost gain and increased complexity in amplifier design.

EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Summary: General Feedback Structure A : Open Loop Gain A = Vo / V : feedback factor = Vf / Vo The product Aβ must be positive for the feedback network to be the negative feedback network. King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Advantages of Negative Feedback • Gain desensitivity - less variation in amplifier gain with changes in β (current gain) of transistors due to dc bias, temperature, fabrication process variations, etc. • Bandwidth extension - extends dominant high and low frequency poles to higher and lower frequencies, respectively. • Noise reduction - improves signal-to-noise ratio • Improves amplifier linearity - reduces distortion in signal due to gain variations due to transistors • Impedance Control - control input and output impedances by applying appropriate feedback topologies • Cost of these advantages: • Loss of gain, may require an added gain stage to compensate. • Added complexity in design King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Gain Desensitivity Feedback can be used to desensitize the closed-loop gain to variations in the basic amplifier. Let’s see how. • Assume βis constant. Taking differentials of the closed-loop gain equation gives… Divide by Af • This result shows the effects of variations in A on Af is mitigated by the feedback amount. 1+Aβ is also called the desensitivity amount We will see through examples that feedback also affects the input and resistance of the amplifier (increases Ri and decreases Ro by 1+Aβ factor) King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Bandwidth Extension We’ve mentioned several times in the past that we can trade gain for bandwidth. Finally, we see how to do so with feedback… Consider an amplifier with a high-frequency response characterized by a single pole and the expression: • Apply negative feedback βand the resulting closed-loop gain is: • Notice that the midband gain reduces by (1+AMβ) while the 3-dB roll-off frequency increases by (1+AMβ) King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Finding Loop Gain • Generally, we can find the loop gain with the following steps: • Break the feedback loop anywhere (at the output in the ex. below) • Zero out the input signal xs • Apply a test signal to the input of the feedback circuit • Solve for the resulting signal xo at the output • If xo is a voltage signal, xtst is a voltage and measure the open-circuit voltage • If xo is a current signal, xtst is a current and measure the short-circuit current • The negative sign comes from the fact that we are apply negative feedback King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Basic Types of Feedback Amplifiers • There are four types of feedback amplifiers. Why? • Outputsampled can be a current or a voltage • Quantity fed back to input can be a current or a voltage • Four possible combinations of the type of output sampling and input feedback • One particular type of amplifier, e.g. voltage amplifier, current amplifier, etc. is used for each one of the four types of feedback amplifiers. • Feedback factor βf is a different type of quantity, e.g. voltage ratio, resistance, current ratio or conductance, for each feedback configuration. • Before analyzing the feedback amplifier’s performance, need to start by recognizing the type or configuration. • Terminology used to name types of feedback amplifier, e.g. Series-shunt • First term refers to nature of feedback connection at the input. • Second term refers to nature of sampling connection at the output. King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi
EIE 211 Electronic Devices and Circuit Design II Basic Feedback Topologies Depending on the input signal (voltage or current) to be amplified and form of the output (voltage or current), amplifiers can be classified into four categories. Depending on the amplifier category, one of four types of feedback structures should be used.
