• Op-Amp or operational amplifiers, is a very high gain differential
amplifier with high input impedance and low output impedance.
• Op-Amp find common application in mathematical operations like
addition, subtraction, integration etc. thus term operational is given
• Nowadays op-amps are IC based (Integrated circuit) that require
relatively low power, reliable and inexpensive.
• Op-Amp’s originated around 1947

• A typical op-amp is made up of three stages;
• differential amplifier stage
• voltage amplifier
• push-pull amplifier stage
• Input stage of op-amp is differential amplifier. It provides
amplification of the difference voltage between the two inputs.
• The second stage is a class A amplifier that provides additional
gain. Some op-amps may have more voltage amplifier stages
• A push-pull class B amplifier is typically used for the output stage.

Op-Amp Parameters
Open loop Voltage gain (Av): The open-
loop gain of an Op-Amp is the gain obtained
with respect to differential input when op-
amp is used in open loop (no feedback)
Output offset voltage VOO: In practical op-
amp, a small dc voltage called output offset
voltage VOO, appears at the output when no
differential input voltage is applied.
Input offset voltage VOS: is the differential
dc voltage required between the inputs to
force the output to zero volts. Typical
values of input offset voltage are upto 2 mV.
Ideally VOS is 0 V.

Op-Amp Parameters
Input biased current (IBias): is the average of
currents at both inputs of Op-amp (required to
operate properly amplifier first stage).
Input offset current (IOS): Ideally, the two
input bias currents are equal, but practically is
not. IOS is the absolute difference of the input
bias currents. (with magnitudes at least ten
times less than the bias current.
Slew Rate: is maximum rate of change of the
output voltage in response to a step input.
Slew rate depends upon the high-frequency
response of the amplifier stages of op-amp.
Slew rate =maximum rate at which Op-Amp
output can change (V/s)

Common mode operation: In common mode common input is
applied on both inputs of op-amp. The difference applied is zero so
the output is zero. This action is called common mode rejection
Common mode rejection ratio (CMRR): Practical op-amps provide
small common mode gain with very large differential mode gain.
CMRR is defined as
It means that unwanted signal appearing on both
inputs will be rejected and will not distort output

Differential amplifier circuits
9/15/2017 10
The differential amplifier circuit is an extremely popular circuit used.
It has two separate inputs and two separate outputs which are
related to difference of inputs.
Differential amplifier works in differential & common mode
• If an input signal is applied to either input with the other input connected to
ground, the operation is referred to as “single-ended differential mode.”
• If two different input signals are applied, the operation is referred to as “double-
ended differential mode.”
• If the same input is applied to both inputs, the operation is called common-mode
Main feature of differential amplifier is very large gain for differential
input as compared to the very small gain for common inputs. The
ratio of this difference gain to the common gain is called common-
mode rejection.

Op-Amp
9/15/2017 12
Virtual ground: When op-amp is used in feedback, potential
difference between the inputs to nearly zero (due to very high open
loop gain) and no current flows to the input of op-amp.
Steps to solve op-amp circuits :
Open loop configuration:
• Find the potential between non-inverting to inverting input (V+-V-)
• Output is open loop gain (Av) times the difference input, Vo=Av(V+-V-)
Feedback configuration:
• Due to virtual ground, voltage at both input terminals of op-amp are
equal & no current flow to the inputs of op-amp ( input impedance)
• Solve the circuits for unknowns using Kirchhoff law’s
• If Op-Amp saturates for any input (output rises close to bias voltage
magnitude), output is equal to saturation voltage

IF
In non-inverting amplifier configuration, if RF=R, then voltage gain is
unity (in inverting mode). The output follows input (with 1800
phase shift), therefore it is called unity follower configuration.
unity follower configuration of op-amp is achieved by connecting
output of op-amp & input waveform to inverting input of op-amp.
Connecting wire’s small resistance serve the purpose of resistances.
