 Which among the following amplifier circuit exhibit the output voltage in the form of phase inversion?

  1. Adder

  2. Substractor

  3. Integrator

  4. Differentiator

Explanation:

In any adder circuitry of Op-amp, the output voltage must be equivalent to the summation of all input voltages where each input voltage is a multiple of constant gain factor. This circuit is usually more similar to inverting scalar type of amplifier with an exception of possessing more than one input. Therefore, output voltage of adder or summer Op-amp is phase inverted.

Referring to subtractor, integrator and differentiator amplifiers, the output voltage of subtractor deals with the difference between two input signals, while integrator generates its output voltage in terms of integral of input voltage whereas the output voltage of differentiator is proportional to change in input in accordance to time.

Which among the following is also used as a buffer or an isolation amplifier?

  1. Inverting amplifier

  2. Non-inverting amplifier

  3. Unity Follower

  4. Emitter Follower


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Unity Follower circuit provides buffering or can be also used as an isolation amplifier which has a provision to obtain a gain at unity despite the requisite of any phase reversal. Emitter follower circuit is also semantic to unity follower only with an exception of gain which is in very much proximity of being absolutely equal to 1 (unity level). 

Unity Follower is supposed to be used as buffer since it becomes quite feasible to transfer the input voltage in the form of output voltage along with the prevention of load resistance from loading down to input source simultaneously. This becomes possible because the value of input resistance tends to infinity & output resistance equals to zero.

  2. is noninverting

  3. has no feedback resistor

  4. has all of these


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

a voltage follower is a circuit, wherein the magnitude and the phase of the signal remains the same. In order to achieve it, the feedback signal should be fed to positive terminal, so that phase is unchanged and the absence of a feedback resistor makes no loss in the output signal

  1. Zero

  2. Very small

  3. Very large

  4. Equal to the input voltage

  1. increases, increases

  2. increases, decreases

  3. decreases, decreases

  4. decreases, increases


Correct Option: A

Open loop gain of an amplifier can be represented by the formula

  2. $V _0+V _i$

  3. $V _0-V _i$

  4. $V _0 \times V _i$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Open loop gain of an amplifier is the ratio of output voltage to the input voltage difference that is being amplified.

$\therefore$ open loop gain $A _{OL}$$=\cfrac{V _{out}}{V^+-V^-}\simeq\cfrac{V _{out}}{V _i}$
Since it is the gain obtained when no overall feedback is used in the circuit.

Which of the following AC parameters of an Op-amp results in reduction of output voltage if it becomes excessive?

  1. Transient Response

  2. Slew Rate

  3. Bandwidth

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The significant AC parameters of Op-amp are transient response, bandwidth and slew rate but all of them have different results while becoming excessive. The transient response affects the settling time while slew rate give rise to distortion if exceeded. As a result, bandwidth reduces the output voltage when it is exceeded. 

Since bandwidth is a small signal phenomenon, it represents the band of frequencies for which the gain remains constant & also highly dependable on compensating components including closed loop gain. But, it exhibits adverse consequences in the reduction of an output voltage when exceeded to greater extent.

Current cannot flow to ground through

  1. A mechanical ground

  2. An ac ground

  3. A virtual ground

  4. An ordinary ground


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
  1. Virtual ground refers to a circuit elements that is not connected to the ground directly, it is held at a reference voltage. This reference voltage need not to be same voltage as ground either.
    2. While in all other ground it may be mechanical A.C or an ordinary ground it act as a reference point against which other voltage can be measured.
    3. The key point  is that the current flow from one point of the circuit through ground then back into the circuit.
    So, current cannot flow to ground through a virtual ground.

Why are the Op-amps with open loop configuration not used in linear applications?

  1. High risk of distortion

  2. High risk of clipping of output signal

  3. Both a & b

  4. works as an attenuator


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Open loop configuration of Op-amp may increase the threat of distortion as well as clipping of output signal. Due to this reason, the output gets switched between the positive and negative saturation levels.

Hence, this is the major drawback because of which it is highly impossible to use Op-amps with open loop configurations in linear circuit applications.

 A certain inverting amplifier has a closed-loop voltage gain of 25. The Op-amp has an open-loop voltage gain of 100,000. If an Op-amp with an open-loop voltage gain of 200,000 is substituted in the arrangement, the closed-loop gain ..

  1. doubles

  2. drops to 12.5

  3. remains at 25

  4. increases slightly


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

the closed loop gain is given by $A _{cl}=\dfrac{A}{1+A \beta}$. since the open loop gain is large, the closed loop gain almost remains a constant, as it will be independent of open loop gain 

Since the input impedance of an ideal operational amplifier is infinite.

  1. Its input current is zero

  2. Its output resistance is high

  3. Its output voltage becomes independent of load resistance

  4. It becomes a current controlled device


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Input current in an ideal operational amplifier   $i = \dfrac{V}{Z}$
Since,  input impedance of the ideal operational amplifier is infinite  $i.e. Z = \infty$
$\implies \ i =\dfrac{V}{\infty}= 0$
