35. DC Amplifier
• In DC amplifier, the output signal changes in response
to changes in its DC input levels.
• The DC amplifier can be inverting, non-inverting or
differential as shown in fig 6.1
• To reduce the output offset voltage to zero, that is, to
improve the accuracy of the DC amplifer, the offset null
circuitry of the op-amp should be used. For op-amp
without offset null capability, the external offset
voltage compensating network should be used as
shown in Fig 6.2.
• Otherwise, a high-precision op-amp such as the uA714,
which has smaller offset and drifts must be used.

38. AC Amplifier
• Circuits shown in figure 6.1 and 6.2 respond
to ac input signal as well.
• To prevent the amplification of dc levels
coupling capacitors must be used between the
stages.
• Figure 6.3 shows the AC inverting and
noninverting amplifiers with coupling
capacitors.

39. AC amplifier
• The coupling capacitor not only block the DC voltage
but also sets the low-frequency cutoff limit, which is
given by
• fL = 1/[2πCi(RiF + Ro)]
• Where
• fL = low frequency cutoff or low end of the bandwidth
• Ci = capacitance between two stages being coupled or
dc blocking capacitors
• RiF = AC input resistance of the second stage
• Ro = AC output resistance of the first stage or the
source resistance, Rin

40. AC amplifier
• The bandwidth of the amplifier
• BW = fH – fL Depends on the desired value of fL and the
closed loop gain of the amplifier
• The coupling capacitor Ci, besides providing the low-
frequency cutoff limit, also helps to eliminate dc level
amplification from stage to stage.
• The closed loop gain of inverting amplifier is AF = - RF/R1
• The closed loop gain of noninverting amplifier is
AF = 1 + RF/R1

43. Inverting configuration
• Figure 6.6 shows
inverting configuration
with three inputs Va, Vb,
Vc.
• Depending upon the
relationship between
feedback resistor RF and
the input resistors Ra, Rb,
Rc, the circuit can be used
as a summing amplifier,
scaling amplifier, or an
averaging amplifier.

45. Inverting configuration-summing
amplifier
• Here Ra = Rb = Rc = R, then output voltage
expression is
• Vo = -RF(Va + Vb + Vc)/R
• This means that the output voltage is
equal to the negative sum of all the input
times the gain of the circuit RF/R: hence
the circuit is called as summing amplifier.
• When the gain of the circuit is 1, that is
Ra=Rb=Rc=RF, the output voltage is equal
to the negative sum of all input voltages.
• Thus
• Vo = -(Va + Vb + Vc)

46. Inverting configuration-scaling or
weighted amplifier
• If each input voltage is amplifier by a
different factor, in other words,
weighted differently at the output,
the circuit is then called a scaling or
weighted amplifier.
• Ra, Rb, and Rc are different
• Thus the output voltage of the scaling
amplifier is

48. Non inverting configuration
If input voltage sources and
resistors are connected to
the noninverting terminal as
shown.
The circuit can be used
either as a summing or
averaging amplifier through
selection of appropriate
values of resistors that is R1
and RF

amplifier

• Equation shows that the
output voltage is equal to
the average of all input
voltages times the gain of
the circuit (1+RF/R1),
hence the name
averaging amplifier.
• If the gain is 1, the output
voltage will be equal to
the average of all input
voltages.
