Q1
Fig.1
Solutions:
From Fig.1, we see that at 1Hz (10 0) the maximum gain is 100dB. At 1000Hz (10 3 Hz) is 60 dB.
The difference gain in dB is 40 dB (100dB-60dB =40 dB)
Q2:
A transfer characteristic of an amplifier is shown in Fig. 2. Two sinusoidal signals
V 1=0.3 sin (ωt ) [V] and V 2=3 sin (ωt ) [V] are input signals to the amplifier. Plot the
waveform of two output signal.
Given that L+¿=15 V , L ¿, Gain A v =10
−¿=−15V ¿
Fig. 2
For V 1=0.3 sin (ωt ) => vout = Av*V1 = 10∗0.3 sin ( ωt )=3 sin (ωt )
For V 1=3 sin (ωt ) => vout = Av*V1 = 10∗3 sin ( ωt )=30 sin ( ωt)
Q3:
The difference amplifier configuration is shown in Figure 3 and assuming an ideal op amp.
Calculate the output voltage if v1=2 (V), v2=1 (V), R1=1K, R2=2K, R3=2K, R4=2K.

Q4:
Figure 4 shows a circuit of first-order high-pass active filter. Derive the transfer function v o /v I.
Express the -3dB cutoff frequency in term of C , R f . The input is a sine wave signal.

Solution
For a sine wave signal, the impedance of capacitor:

ZC =
jωC
1 jωC R F +1
Z1 =R F +Z C =R F + =
jωC jωC
As show in the circuit, the v+ connects to the ground, then v+=0 => v-=0 (V). We have an
equation:
