10. Given Op-amp is ideal. Calculate vo if va=1v and vb=0v.

a) -4v
b) -2.5v
c) 4v
d) 2.5v
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: In the given circuit, a negative feedback exists between Op-amp‘s output and
its inverting input (voltage here is 0, as vp =vb=0 and vn=vp). Node-voltage equation is
i50=i125=i0.
i50= (va-vn)/50 =1/50 mA.
I125= (v0-vn)/125 = v0/125 mA.
1/50 + v0/125 = 0.
v0 is -2.5volts.

b) ±1.5V
c) ±2.25
d) ±0.5
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Gain= Rf/Rs= 10 and vo= (-Rf/Rs)*vs.
→ vo= -10vs and given -12V≤ vo ≤ 12V.
→ -15= -10vs. So, vs= 1.5V
→ 15=-10vs. So, vs=-1.5V.

c) ±2.28
d) ±0.5
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Gain= Rf/Rs= 13 and vo= (-Rf/Rs)*vs.
→ vo= -13vs and given -22V≤ vo ≤ 22V.
→ -22= -13vs. So, vs=1.692 V
→ 22=-13vs. So, vs=-1.692V.
