This chapter discusses ideal operational amplifiers and op-amp circuits. It will analyze the inverting, non-inverting, and summing op-amp configurations. Key characteristics of the ideal op-amp include infinite differential gain, zero output resistance, and zero input current. The equivalent circuit model shows the op-amp as a dependent voltage source with infinite gain. Circuit analysis techniques rely on treating the inverting input as a virtual ground or ensuring the two inputs have the same voltage. Design specifications for op-amp circuits will also be considered.

Ideal Operational Amplifiers
and Op-Amp Circuits In this chapter, we will:
• Develop the parameters and characteristics of the
ideal operational amplifier, and determine the analysis method of ideal op-amp circuits. • inverting operational amplifier • summing operational amplifier • noninverting operational amplifier • Analyze several ideal op-amp circuits including the difference amplifier and the instrumentation amplifier. • operational transconductance amplifier. • Design several ideal op-amp circuits with given design specifications. What is operational amplifier? • An operational amplifier (often op-amp or opamp) is a DC-coupled high-gain electronic voltage amplifier with a differential input and, usually, a single-ended output. From signal point of view, the op-amp has two input terminals and one output terminal. It also requires dc power, as do all transistor circuits. Also, most op-amps are biased with both a positive and a negative voltage supply. Ideal Parameters • The ideal op-amp senses the difference between two input signals and amplifies this difference to produce an output signal. • Terminal voltage is the voltage at a terminal measured with respect to ground. • The input Resistance Ri between terminals 1 and terminal 2 is infinite, meaning that the input current is zero. • The output terminal acts as the output of an ideal voltage source, meaning that the small-signal resistance Ro is zero. • The parameter A(od) is the open-loop differential voltage gain of the op-amp. • Terminal 1 is the inverting input terminal. • Terminal 2 is the non-inverting input terminal. • The output is out of phase with respect to terminal 1 voltage i.e. v1 and in phase with respect to terminal 2 voltage i.e. v2. • Snice the ideal op-amp responds only to the difference between the two input signals v1 and v2 and therefore, it maintains a zero output signal for v1=v2. • When v1 is not equal to v2, then input is called common-mode input signal and for the ideal op-amp the common mode output signal is zero and the characteristic is referred to as common-mode rejection. Ideal Op-Amp Equivalent Circuit Ideal Op-Amp Characteristics 1. Internal differential gain Aod is infinite. 2. Differential input voltage (v2-v1) is zero. 3. Effective input resistance is infinite. 4. Output resistance is zero so output voltage is connected directly to dependent voltage source. 5. The overall gain of op-amp is –Rf/R1. Equivalent Circuit of Op- Amp Problem-Solving Technique: Ideal Op-Amp Circuits 1. If noninverting terminal is grounded, then inverting terminal is virtual ground. a. Sum currents at node assuming no current enters Op Amp. 2. If noninverting terminal is not grounded, then inverting terminal voltage is equal to that of the noninverting terminal. a. Sum currents at node assuming no current enters Op Amp. 3. Output voltage is determined from either Step 1 or 2. Inverting Op-Amp
