Quiz No. 11

This document contains the solution to Quiz 11, which analyzes a feedback amplifier circuit. It finds that the open-loop gain (A) is 2.5 mS, the voltage gain (v2/v1) is -0.714 V/V, the input resistance (Rin) is 1 kΩ, and the output resistance (Rout) is 857 Ω. Feedback analysis is used to solve for these key circuit parameters in 3 steps: 1) calculating open-loop gain, 2) determining voltage gain, and 3) finding input and output resistances.

method of feedback analysis to find +

* The reason for this is that the input variable is vs and the resistor, R1, in parallel with vs
does not influence the circuit so the input resistance without feedback is ∞.
