Basic Specifications
1. Input Offset Voltage
Input offset voltage is the voltage that is applied between
the two input terminals of the op-amp to null the output. The
figure is show below.
Cont.…
2. Input Offset Current
Input Offset Current is the algebraic difference between
the currents into the inverting and non-inverting terminals.
5. Input Capacitance
• Input Capacitance is the equivalent capacitance that is
measured from any one of the input terminals by keeping
the other terminal connected to ground.
• Note:- The typical value for 741 IC is 1.4pF.
Cont.…
6. Offset Voltage Adjustment Range
• The op-amp has pins 1 and 5 marked as offset null to determine the
offset voltage adjustment range.
• Can be adjusted by connecting a 10K POT. between the pin 1 and pin 5
and the wiper of the port should be connected to the ground.
• By changing the POT value, the output offset voltage can be reduced to
0V without applying any input.
• The range through which the POT is varied to get the input offset
voltage is the offset voltage adjustment range.
• Note:-For a 741 IC, typical value is ±15mV.

14. Supply Current
• The supply current is the current drawn by the IC from the
power supply.
• Note:-In the case of the 741 IC the slew rate is 0.5V/µs, which
is very small.
An IDEAL OP AMP
An ideal op amp has the following characteristics:
• QN and QP provides
the voltage drop which
equals to the turn-on
voltages of QN and QP.
• This circuit is call Class
AB output stage.
Short-circuit protection
G*Bw ∞ 10⁶ Hz
• The op-amp with negative feedback forces the two inputs v+ and v- to
have the same voltage, even though no current flows into either input.
As long as the op-amp stays in its linear region, the output will
change up or down until v- is almost equal to v+
• Compare the voltage of one input with the voltage with other input
• Two types:
• Inverting Comparator when the reference voltage apply to the inverting
terminal
• Non Inverting Comparator when the reference voltage apply to the non
inverting terminal

Inverting amplifier
Inverting amplifier: configuration
Then, once you have an equation written, solve for the over-all voltage
gain (AV = [(Vout)/(Vin(+))]) of this amplifier circuit, and calculate the
output voltage for a non-inverting input voltage of +6 volts.

100001
for an input voltage of 6V, the output voltage will be 5.99994V.
Note:-The over-all voltage gain of the op-amp radically attenuated from 100,000
to approximately 1. What is not so evident is just how stable this new voltage gain is,
which is one of the purposes for employing negative feedback.
Non-Inverting amplifier
Non-Inverting Configuration
1. V- = V+
2. As V+ = VIN, V- = VIN
3. As no current can enter V-
and from Kirchhoff's 1st
law, I1=I2.
4. I1 = VIN/R1
5. I2 = (VOUT - VIN)/R2 => VOUT = VIN + I2R2
6. VOUT = I1R1 + I2R2 = (R1+R2)I1 = (R1+R2)VIN/R1
7. Therefore VOUT = (1 + R2/R1)VIN

Differential amplifier
“Humming” Noise in Audio Amplifier
• Consider the amplifier below which amplifies an audio signal
from a microphone.
• If the power supply (VCC) is time-varying, it will result in an
additional (undesirable) voltage signal at the output,
perceived as a “humming” noise by the user.
Supply Ripple Rejection
• Since node X and Y each see the voltage ripple, their voltage
difference will be free of ripple.

vY vr
v X vY Av vin
Ripple-Free Differential Output
• If the input signal is to be a voltage difference between two
nodes, an amplifier that senses a differential signal is
needed.
Common Inputs to Differential Amp.
• The voltage signals applied to the input nodes of a
differential amplifier cannot be in phase; otherwise, the
differential output signal will be zero.

Differential amplifier
• Differential amplifier amplifies
the difference between two
input signals V1 and V2.
• Also referred to as a difference
amplifier.
• An arrangement of transistors
which allows the difference
between two signals source to
be amplified.
• The output is proportional to the
difference between these two
inputs.
• The best direct coupled stages
available to the IC designer.
Differential amplifiers are used in low and high frequency amplifiers,
analog modulators and digital logic states.
DC analysis of differential amplifier
• For the DC analysis of differential amplifier circuit, all inputs
are set to zero as shown
Modes of operation of differential
amplifier
Three possible input signal combination for differential
amplifier:
• Single ended mode – an active signal is applied to only one
input while the other is grounded.
• Differential mode – two opposite polarity active signals are
applied to the amplifier.
• Common mode
- Two signals of the same amplitude, frequency and phase
are applied to the differential amplifier.
- The output of the amplifier is ideally zero when
measured the difference between the output terminals.
