Experiment No. 4: Integrator and Differentiator Using 741 Op-Amp

The document describes how to design an integrator and differentiator circuit using an op-amp. It explains that an op-amp integrator produces an output voltage proportional to the area under the input waveform over time. An ideal op-amp integrator uses a capacitor between the output and inverting input, which ensures the inverting input is held at virtual ground. For a differentiator, the positions of the capacitor and resistor are simply switched in the circuit. Diagrams and output waveforms are provided for both integrator and differentiator circuits using an op-amp.

Experiment No. 4
INTEGRATOR AND DIFFERENTIATOR using 741 OP-AMP

Aim- To design an INTEGRATOR AND DIFFERENTIATOR using 741 OP-AMP


Apparatus- Tinkercad as simulation tool
Theory-
Operational amplifier can be configured to perform calculus operations such as differentiation
and integration. In an integrating circuit, the output is the integration of the input voltage with
respect to time.
A passive integrator is a circuit which does not use any active devices like op-amps or
transistors.
An integrator circuit which consists of active devices is called an Active integrator. An active
integrator provides a much lower output resistance and higher output voltage than is possible
with a simple RC circuit.
Op-amp differentiating and integrating circuits are inverting amplifiers, with appropriately placed
capacitors. Integrator circuits are usually designed to produce a triangular wave output from a
square wave input.
Integrating circuits have frequency limitations while operating on sine wave input signals.

Ideal Op-amp Integrator Circuit


An op-amp integrating circuit produces an output voltage which is proportional to the area
(amplitude multiplied by time) contained under the waveform.
An ideal op-amp integrator uses a capacitor C1, connected between the output and the op-amp
inverting input terminal, as shown in the figure below.

The negative feedback to the inverting input terminal ensures that the node X is held at ground
potential (virtual ground). If the input voltage is 0 V, there will be no current through the input
resistor R1, and the capacitor is uncharged.
Hence, the output voltage is ideally zero.
If a constant positive voltage (DC) is applied to the input of the integrating amplifier, the output
voltage will fall negative at a linear rate, in an attempt to keep the inverting input terminal at
ground potential.
Conversely, a constant negative voltage at the input results in a linearly rising (positive) voltage
at the output. The rate of change of the output voltage is proportional to the value of the applied
input voltage.

Op amp differentiator circuit

It can be seen that the op amp circuit for an integrator is very similar to that of the differentiator.
The difference is that the positions of the capacitor and inductor are changed.

In its basic form the centre of the circuit is based around the operational amplifier itself. In
addition to this a couple of other electronics components are required: a capacitor is connected
from the input of the whole circuit to the inverting input of the operational amplifier. A feedback
resistor is then used to provide the negative feedback around the op amp chip - this is

connected from the output of the operational amplifier to its inverting input. The non-inverting
input is connected to ground.
