300 HWset-3 S13

The document discusses gain calculations for operational amplifiers. It provides equations to calculate voltage gain, phase shift, and bandwidth based on component values and frequencies. Several examples are worked through applying these equations to determine gain, corner frequency, phase shift, and number of octaves between two given frequencies.

This is the corner frequency so signal is -3dB from dc gain.

Selecting R

can be evaluated as 1 k.
Since GBP = 1MHz for the A741C op-amp and G = 1000 at low frequencies,
GBP = 1MHz = 1000(Bandwidth)
Bandwidth = 1 kHz = f
c

If f = 10 kHz and f

= 1 kHz, we must calculate the number of times f

doubles before reaching

Now the gain can be calculated knowing that for each doubling the gain decreases by 6dB (i.e.
