APPARATUS:
1. Simulation Package
THEORY:
The schematic of a simple Op-amp diode log amplifier is shown above. This is nothing but an
op-amp wired in closed loop inverting configuration with a diode in the feedback path. The
voltage across the diode will be always proportional to the log of the current through it and
when a diode is placed in the feedback path of an op-amp in inverting mode, the output
voltage will be proportional to the negative log of the input current. Since the input current is
proportional to the input voltage, one can say that the output voltage will be proportional to
the negative log of the input voltage.
Vin = Is R e(Vd/Vt)......................(1)
Considering that the negative of the voltage across diode is the output voltage Vout (see the
circuit diagram (fig1)), we can rearrange the equation (1) to get
Anti log amplifier is one which provides output proportional to the anti log(Interchange
position of diode and resistor) i.e. exponential to the input voltage. If V i is the input signal
applied to a Anti log amplifier then the output is V o=K*exp(a*Vi) where K is proportionality
constant, a is constant
