Theory:
If the circuit component values in circuit diagram are specified, the quiescent point is
found as follows. Kirchhoff’s voltage law around the collector circuit yields
-Vcc + Ic(Rc + Re) + IBRe + Vce = 0
5
If the drop in Re due to IB is neglected compared with that due to Ic, then this
relationship between Ic and VCE is straight line whose slope corresponds to RC+Re
and whose intercept at Ic = 0 is VCE = VCC. This load line is drawn on the collector
characteristics.
If the circuit to the left between the base B and ground terminals is replaced by its
thevenin equivalent then
VB = R2 Vcc / (R1 + R2) and RB = R1R2 / (R1 +R2)
Obviously, RB is the effective seen looking back from the base terminal. Kirchhoff’s
voltage law around the base circuit yields V = IBRB + VBE + (IB + IC)Re
In many cases transistor characteristics are not available but β is known. Then
calculation of the Q point may be carried out analytically as follows: In the active
region the collector current is given by
IC = βIB + (1+β)ICO

Theory:
This is most effective type of coupling because it is cheap and provides excellent
audio fidelity over a wide range of frequency. It is usually employed for voltage
11
amplification. Figure shows two stages RC coupled amplifier. A coupling capacitor
Cc is used to connect the output of first stage to the base of second stage and so on.
As the coupling from one stage to the next is achieved by coupling capacitor
followed by connection to shunt resistor, so, such amplifiers are called Resistance-
capacitance coupled amplifier.
The resistance R1, R2 and RE1 form biasing and stabilization network. The emitter
bypass capacitor offers low reactance path to the signal. Without it voltage gain of
each stage would be lost. The coupling capacitor Cc transmits ac signal but block d.c.
This prevents d.c. interference of various stages and shifting of operating point.
When a.c. signal is applied to the base of transistor, it appears in the amplified form
across its collector load Rc. The amplified signal developed across Rc is given to the
base of next stage through coupling capacitor Cc. The second stage does further
amplification of the signal. In this way the cascaded stages amplify signal and
overall gain is considerably increased.
It may be mentioned here that total gain is less than the product of the gain of the
gains of individual stages it is because when second stage is made to follow the first
stage, the effective load resistance of first stage is reduced due to shunting effect of
input resistance of second stage.
The a.c. behaviour of amplifier is briefly explained below:
(1) At low frequency, the reactance of coupling capacitor is quiet high and hence
very small part of signal will pass from first stage to next stage. Moreover Ce can not
shunt the emitter resistance Re effectively because of large reactance at low
frequency. These two factors cause a failing of voltage gain at low frequency.
(2) At high frequency the reactance of Cc is very small and it behaves as short circuit.
This increases the loading effect of next stage and serves to reduce the voltage gain.
Moreover at high frequency capacitive reactance of base emitter junction is low
which increases the base current. This reduces the current amplification factor. Due
to these two reasons, the voltage gain drops off at high frequency.
(3) At mid frequency, the voltage gain of amplifier is constant. The effect of coupling
capacitor in this frequency range is such so to maintain a uniform voltage gain. Thus
12
as frequency increases, reactance of Cc decreases which tends to increase gain.
However at the same time, lower reactance means higher loading of first stage and
hence lower gain. These two factors almost cancel each other, resulting in uniform
gain at mid-frequency.
Procedure:
Task (a) Measurement of gain, input impedance and output impedance:
Both transistors have the identical voltage divider circuit and the same
component values; therefore, the dc bias for each transistor is essentially the
same.

The voltage gain of first stage is Av1 = - (Rc1 ǁ (R3 ǁ R4 ǁ βre)) / re.
The voltage gain of second stage is Av2 = - (Rc ǁ RL) / re.

Theory:
In many applications a system must amplify either dc or a very low frequency input
voltage. For example, a measurement of outside temperature would show a nearly
sinusoidal variation with a positive peak in the early afternoon and a negative peak
in the early morning. A voltage waveform representing this variation would have a
frequency of about 11.6µHz. At a frequency this low, coupling capacitors would
prevent any of the waveform from passing through the amplifier. Therefore, direct-
coupled amplifiers are used.

Objective:
(a) To measure gain of two stages coupled amplifier.
(b) To measure bandwidth of amplifier. Comment about gain bandwidth product.
Apparatus:
• Transistors, Resistors, capacitors, transformer.
• Variable Power supply, Function generator, CRO.
Theory :
Besides blocking dc, an important advantage of using a t forcer for inter stage
coupling is that the turns ratio can be designed to achieve impedance matching and
therefore to maximize power transfer between stages. Recall that the turns ratio of a
transformer is defined by
23
Assuming an ideal transformer (zero winding resistance and no power loss), it is
easy to show that the resistance rin looking into the primary winding is
rin = (Np/Ns)2 rL
To achieve maximum power transfer from the source to the load in Figure, it is
necessary (by the maximum power transfer theorem) that the resistance rin, seen by
the signal source be equal to the source resistance r1. Thus, from equation , we
require
Solving the equation for Np/Ns, we find the turns ratio necessary to achieve
maximum power transfer:
In multistage transistor amplifiers, the signal source driving the primary winding is
often a common-emitter stage having a large output resistance, and the load
resistance may be the much smaller value equal to the input resistance of the next
stage. In that case, the ratio r1/ rL, is greater than 1 and therefore, by equation, the
turns ratio Np/NS is greater than 1. As a consequence. the coupling transformer is
typically a step-down transformer, meaning the secondary voltage is less than the
primary voltage.
24
the transformer does not short the dc bias current to ground. The 1.25- kΩ load is
transformer-coupled to the output of Q2. Note that the loads shown completely
isolated from the rest of the circuit, in the sense that it does not share a common
ground reference with Q1 and Q2 (although it could, if desired). This is another
advantage of transformer coupling: individual amplifier stages and loads can be
isolated from each other when desired or necessary. In fact, isolation transformers
having 1:1 turns ratios are sometimes used specifically for that purpose.

Theory:
Input bias current, IB:- The inverting and non inverting terminals of an Op-Amp are
two base terminals of the transistors of a differential amplifier. In an ideal Op-Amp
no current flows through these terminals. However a small amount of current flows
through these terminals which is of the order mA.
Input bias current, IB = (IB1 + IB2)/2 where IB1andIB2 are the base bias current of
the Op-Amp.
Input offset current, IO:- The bias current IB1 & IB2 will not be equal in an Op-Amp.
Input offset current is defined as the algebraic difference between the current into
the inverting and not inverting terminals.
Input offset current, IO = |IB1 − IB2 |
Input offset voltage, VO:- Even if the input voltage to an Op-Amp is zero, output
voltage may not be zero. This is because of the circuit imbalances inside the Op
Amp. In order to compensate this, a small voltage should be applied between the
terminals. Input offset voltage is defined as the voltage that must be applied between
the input terminals of an Op-Amp to nullify the output voltage. Typical and
maximum values of input offset voltage are 2mV and 6mV .
31
CMRR:- It is the ratio of differential mode gain to common mode gain. If a signal is
applied common to both, the output of Op-Amp signal will be alternated. CMRR is
usually expressed in dB. When an input signal is applied, common to both inputs
common mode voltage gain Ac = Vo/Vi. Differential mode gain Ad = Rf/Ri. Then
CMRR is given by the expression:
CMRR = 20 log (Ad / AC) in dB
Slew rate:- Slew rate is the maximum rate of change of output voltage. It is the
measure of fastness of Op-Amp. It is expressed in V/μs. The internal output
capacitance prevents sudden rate of output voltage for a sing input. If the slope
requirements of the output voltage of the Op-Amp is greater than the slew rate then
distortion occur.
Procedure:
1. To find input offset voltage:- Setup the circuit and measure the output voltage.
Input offset voltage can be measured using the expression, Vio = VoRi/(Rf + Ri).
Where Vo = output voltage and Vio = input offset voltage.
Check the Op-Amp to find input offset voltage. Setup the circuit and measure the
output voltage. Input offset voltage is given as
V = VoRi / (Rf + Ri)
2. To find input bias current and input offset current:- Setup the circuit and measure
the output voltage using the expression Vo = IB1R and Vo = IB2R. IB1orIB2 can be
calculated.
Then input offset current =IB1 − IB2.
Input bias current = (IB1 + IB2) / 2
3. To find slew rate:- Setup the circuit. Apply a square wave input of 1V,1KHz. Vary
input frequency and observe the output. Increase the frequency until the output gets
disturbed. Calculate slew rate by measuring the slope of the output wave.

AIM: To find gain and Bandwidth of Inverting and Non Inverting Close loop Op-
Amp.
Objective:
1. To measure the gain of inverting and non-inverting op-amp amplifier.
2. To find bandwidth of inverting and non- inverting op-amp amplifier.
Apparatus:
• Op-amp, Resistors.
• Variable Power supply, Function generator, CRO.
Theory :
Most of the analog systems of today are constructed using opamp as the building
block. These ICs argumented by a few external discrete components, either singly or
in combination are used in a variety of applications, both linear and non-linear.
Negative and positive feedback principles are applied too to derive a number of
circuits. Volumes can be written on the applications of opamps. In the interest of
brevity and keeping in view our objectives, select experiments are listed. However
we leave it to the user's imagination, the innumerous applications that are possible
with opamps.
34
In this case also, the voltage at inverting input is the same as that at non-inverting
input, since Vd is still zero for A tending to infinity. Therefore Vi the voltage from
inverting terminal to ground is equal to the input signal voltage Vi. VI represents the
feedback voltage. Since Vi is not equal to zero, it implies the non-inverting circuit
has no virtual ground at either of its input terminals.
We shall now derive the gain expression for the non-inverting circuit.
Vi = Vo (Rs / Rf + Rs)
or Vo/Vi=Rf+Rs/Rs=1+Rf/Rs
This is the closed loop gain expression for the non-inverting circuit. It is always
greater than or equal to unity and is determined by Rf and Re. Rf and Rs form the
voltage divider i.e. the feedback network. The ratio Vo / Vi is positive and hence the
output has the same phase as the input signal. Remember, the key to analysis of non-
inverting circuit is 1 . When the opamp is operating linearly with feedback, the two
input terminals are at equal potential. 2. No current flows into either input of the
amplifier.
35
Performance:-
Procedure:
1. Use either the 741 or the TL061 op-amp as the amplifier under test (AUT). Make
Inverting Amplifier :
The circuit of Fig. is representative of the general class of inverting circuits. This is
the case of parallel-parallel (pp) negative feedback. The input voltage drives the
inverting terminal of the amplifier and the non-inverting terminal is grounded. The
amplified and inverted output signal is then applied to the inverting .input. Hence
the feedback is negative.
36
Rf is the feedback resistor and Rs is the input resistor. Using Miller's theorem, the
feedback resistor can be split into its input and output components as in Fig.
Since the input impedance Zin and gain A of the op-amp is infinite, Zin (pp) tends to
zeros This means no current flows into the op-amp input terminals. All the current
flows through the Miller input component.
Hence all the input current flows through the feedback resistor Rf of Fig. Therefore
Vo is the voltage across the feedback resistor. Further Vd = 0 since Vd = Vo / A and
A is infinite. This implies the potential difference between the input terminals is
zero. And this is forced by the negative feedback around the amplifier. Hence the
inverting terminal has the same potential as the non inverting terminal. And since
the non-inverting terminal is grounded, the inverting terminal is at `virtual' ground.
We refer to the inverting input as virtual, because it not truly at ground potential. It
does not sink the input current. Rather all the input current flows through the
feedback resistor because of Miller effect. The virtual ground concept simplifies the
analysis of inverting op-amp circuits. Remember, the key to analysis of inverting
circuit is as follows:
The potential difference between the input terminals of the op-amp is zero i.e. the
inverting input is at ground potential or at `virtual' ground. The current into each
input terminal is zero i.e. all the input current flows through the feedback resistor.
We shall now derive the gain expression for the inverting circuit. From Fig.
Iin = ( Vi — Vd ) / Rs
If=(Vd—Vo)/Rf
Lab Manual (Advance Electronics) Government Engineering College, Rajkot
37
(Vi—Vd)/Rs= (Vd—Vo)/Rf-------(4.2.1)
Vi / Rs = —Vo / Rf
Or Vo/Vi=—Rf/Rs-------(4.2.2)
This is the closed loop gain expression of the inverting op-amp. It is negative
because of phase inversion from output to input. Further it depends only on the ratio
of Rf / Rs. By using precision resistors, this radio can be made highly accurate and
stable. The stability of this determines the closed loop stability. Hence the
performance of the opamp is virtually independent bf its internal parameters. The
input impedance is Rs. Based on equation (4.2.2) we can readily obtain an analog
inverter, a scale changer, a phase shifter and an adder. Note that Rf and Rs can be
replaced with impedances too. Inverting amplifier for AC analysis.

However, V1= V2 ≈ 0 because A is very large. Therefore,

The output voltage can be obtained by integrating both the sides with respect to
time:
Therefore,
Where C is the integration constant and is proportional to the value of the output
voltage Vo at time t= 0 seconds. fb is the frequency at which the gain is 0 dB and is
given by
Both the stability and the low frequency roll off problems can be corrected by the
addition of the resister RF as shown in the practical integrator of figure 5.2. The term
stability refers to a constant gain as frequency of an input signal is varied over a
certain range. Also, low frequency roll off refers to the rate of decrease in gain at
lower frequencies. In the figure 5.1, f is some relative operating frequency , and for
frequencies f to fa to gain RF/R1 is constant .The gain limiting frequency fa is given
by ,
Generally, the value of fa and in turn R1Cf and RFCF values should be selected such
that fa<fb .For example, if fa = fb/10, then RF=10R1 .In fact, the input signal will be
integrated properly if the time period of the signal is larger than or equal to RFCF.
That is, T ≥ RFCF Where,
The integrator is most commonly used in analog computer and analog–to– digital
(ADC) and signal–wave shaping circuits.

Ideal integrator circuit
Procedure:
• Connect the circuit as given in the figure.
• Give the square, triangular and sinusoidal wave as input to the circuit as
given in the figure.
• Calculate the value of fa and fb.
• Verify the output waveform for a given input wave.
• Draw the output waveform with a proper scale in a graph.
• Draw the frequency response characteristics for differentiator circuit.
43
Differentiator:
As its name implies, the circuit performs the mathematical operation of differentiation; that
is, the output waveform is the derivative of the input waveform. The differentiator may be
constructed from a basic inverting amplifier if an input resistor R1 is replaced by a capacitor
C1. The expression for the output voltage can be obtained from Kirchhoff’s current equation
written at the node V2 as follows:
iC = iV + iF
Since IB ≈ 0,
iC =iF
C1d/dt (Vin-V2) = (V2-V1)/RF
But V1=V2= 0 V, because A is very large. Therefore
C1 d (Vin)/dt = -Vo/RF
Or
Vo= - R1C1 (dVin/dt)
Thus the input Vo is equal to RfC1 times the negative instantaneous rate of
change of the input voltage Vin with time .since the differentiator performs the
reverse of the integrator’s function a cosine wave will produce a sine wave
output, or a triangular input will produce square wave output. However, the
differentiator of figure 4.1 will not do this because it has some practical problems.
The gain of the circuit (RF/XC1) increases with increase in frequency at the rate
of 20db/decade. This makes the unstable. Also the input impedance XC1
decrease with increase in frequency which makes the circuit is susceptible to high
frequency noise. When amplified, this noise can completely overwrite the
differentiated output signal. The frequency response of basic differentiator is
shown in figure 4.1. In this figure fa is the frequency at which the gain is 0dB and
is given by fa = 1/2ΠRFC1
Also fc is the unity gain bandwidth of the op-am and f is some relative operating
frequency. Both the stability and the high frequency noise problem can be
corrected by the addition of two components R1 and CF shown in the figure. This
circuit is practical differentiator the frequency response of which is shown in
figure by dashed line. From frequency f to fb the gain increase is 20db/decade.
However after fb the gain decreases at 20db/decade. This 40db/decade change
in the gain caused by the R1C1 and RFCF combinations. The gain limiting
frequency fb given by fb=1/2ΠR1C1
Where R1C1 = RFCF. Thus R1C1 and RFCF have to reduce significantly the effect
of high frequency input amplifier noise and offsets. Above all R1C1 and RFCF
make the more stable by preventing the increase in the gain with frequency.
Generally the value of fb and the in turn R1C1 and RFCF value should be
selected such that
fa <fb <fc
fa=1/2ΠRFC1
fb=1/2π RFCF

Vo = Rf/ R1 (V2 – V1)

Negative Feedback
If some percentage of an amplifier's output signal is connected to the input, so that
the amplifier amplifies part of its own output signal, we have what is known
as feedback. Feedback comes in two varieties: positive (also called regenerative),
and negative (also called degenerative). Positive feedback reinforces the direction of
an amplifier's output voltage change, while negative feedback does just the opposite.
A familiar example of feedback happens in public-address (“PA”) systems where
someone holds the microphone too close to a speaker: a high-pitched “whine” or
“howl” ensues, because the audio amplifier system is detecting and amplifying its
own noise. Specifically, this is an example of positive or regenerative feedback, as
any sound detected by the microphone is amplified and turned into a louder sound
by the speaker, which is then detected by the microphone again; and so on . . . the
result being a noise of steadily increasing volume until the system becomes
“saturated” and cannot produce any more volume.

weighted average of the input voltage and the feedback voltage, resulting in signal
of reduced amplitude going into the transistor. So, the amplifier circuit will have
reduced voltage gain, but improved linearity (reduced distortion) and increased
bandwidth.
The output voltage Vo is much greater than the input voltage Vi and is 180° out of
phase with Vi. Hence
If = (Vi – Vo) / RF = -Vo/RF = βVo.
Where β = -1/RF. Since the feedback current is proportional to the output voltage.
Note that transresistance equals the negative of feedback resistance from output to
input of the transistor and is stable if RF is a stable resistance.

Together, they are often used in digital systems to provide complete interface with

For a simple inverting summer circuit, all resistors must be of equal value. If any of
the input resistors were different, the input voltages would have different degrees of
effect on the output, and the output voltage would not be a true sum. Let's consider,
however, intentionally setting the input resistors at different values. Suppose we
were to set the input resistor values at multiple powers of two: R, 2R, and 4R, instead
of all the same value R:
We can adjust resistors values in this circuit to obtain output voltages directly
corresponding to the binary input. For example, by making the feedback resistor 800
Ω instead of 1 kΩ, the DAC will output -1 volt for the binary input 001, -4 volts for
the binary input 100, -7 volts for the binary input 111, and so on.
If we wish to expand the resolution of this DAC (add more bits to the input), all we
need to do is add more input resistors, holding to the same power-of-two sequence
of values:

Theory:
The Colpitt’s oscillator is designed for generation of high frequency sinusoidal
oscillations (radio frequencies ranging from 10KHz to 100MHz). They are widely
94
used in commercial signal generators up to 100MHz. Colpitt's oscillator is same as
Hartley oscillator except for one difference. Instead of using a tapped inductance,
Colpitt's oscillator uses a tapped capacitance. The circuit diagram of Colpitt’s
oscillator using BJT is shown in circuit. It consists of an R-C coupled amplifier using
an n-p-n transistor in CE configuration. RB1 and RB2 are two resistors which form a
voltage divider bias to the transistor. A resistor RE is connected in the circuit which
stabilizes the circuit against temperature variations. A capacitor Ce is connected in
parallel with RE, acts as a bypass capacitor and provides a low reactive path to the
amplified ac signal. The coupling capacitor CC blocks dc and provides an ac path
from the collector to the tank circuit. The feedback network (tank circuit) consists of
two capacitors C1 and C2 (in series) which placed across a common inductor L. The
centre of the two capacitors is tapped (grounded). The feedback network (C1, C2 and
L) determines the frequency of oscillation of the oscillator. The two series capacitors
C1 and C2 form the potential divider led for providing the feedback voltage. The
voltage developed across the capacitor C1 provides regenerative feedback which is
essential for sustained oscillations.
When the collector supply voltage Vcc is switched on, collector current starts rising
and charges the capacitors C1 and C2. When these capacitors are fully charged, they
discharge through coil L setting up damped harmonic oscillations in the tank circuit.
The oscillatory current in the tank circuit produces an a.c. voltages across C1, C2.
The oscillations across C1 are applied to base emitter junction of the transistor and
appears in the amplified form in the collector circuit and overcomes the losses
occurring in the tank circuit.
The feedback voltage ( across the capacitor C1) is 180° out of phase with the output
voltage ( across the capacitor C2), as the centre of the two capacitors is grounded. A
phase shift of 180° is produced by the feedback network and a further phase shift of
180° between the output and input voltage is produced by the CE transistor. Hence,
the total phase shift is 360° or 0°, which is essential for sustained oscillations, as per,
the Barkhausen criterion. So we get continuous undamped oscillations.

oscillator. The circuit diagram of Hartley oscillator (parallel or shunt-fed) using BJT
is shown in circuit. It consists of an R-C coupled amplifier using an n-p-n transistor
in CE configuration. RB1 and RB2 are two resistors which form a voltage divider
bias to the transistor. A resistor RE is connected in the circuit which stabilizes the
circuit against temperature variations. A capacitor Ce is connected in parallel with
RE, acts as a bypass capacitor and provides a low reactive path to the amplified ac
signal. The coupling capacitor Cc blocks dc and provides an ac path from the
collector to the tank circuit. The L-C feedback network (tank circuit) consists of two
inductors L1, and L2 (in series) which are placed across a common capacitor C and
the centre of the two inductors is tapped. The feedback network (L1, L2 and C)
determines the frequency of oscillation of the oscillator.
When the collector supply voltage Vcc is switched on, collector current starts rising
and charges the capacitor C. When this capacitor is fully charged, it discharges
through coils L1 and L2, setting up damped harmonic oscillations in the tank circuit.
The oscillatory current in the tank circuit produces an a.c. voltage across L1 which is
applied to the base emitter junction of the transistor and appears in the amplified
form in the collector circuit. Feedback of energy from output (collector emitter
circuit) to input (base-emitter circuit is) accomplished through auto transformer
action. The output of the amplifier is applied across the inductor L1, and the voltage
across L2 forms the feedback voltage. The coil L1, is inductively coupled to coil L2,
and the combination acts as an auto-transformer. This energy supplied to the tank
circuit overcomes the losses occurring in it. Consequently the oscillations are
sustained in the circuit. The energy supplied to the tank circuit is in phase with the
generated oscillations. The phase difference between the voltages across L1 and that
across L2 is always 180° because the centre of the two is grounded. A further phase
of 180° is introduced between the input and output voltages by the transistor itself.
Thus the total phase shift becomes 360 (or zero), thereby making the feedback
positive or regenerative which is essential for oscillations, So continuous undamped
oscillations are obtained.
