CHAPTER 12
THE OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER


1. The measure of an amplifier’s ability to reject common-mode signals
CMRR

2. It is the typical value of input offset voltage in the ideal case.
0 V

3. It is the dc current required by the inputs of the amplifier to properly operate the first stage.
Input bias current

4. It is the resistance viewed from the output terminal of the op-amp
Output impedance

5. The total resistance between the inverting and noninverting inputs
Differential input impedance

6. Differential impedance is measured by determining the change in ___________ for a given change in differential input voltage.
Bias current

7. Common temperature coefficient for the offset current
0.5nA/°C

8. Functions of negative feedback in an op-amp
Stabilize gain and increase frequency response

9. The voltage gain of an op-amp with external feedback
Closed-loop voltage gain

10. A special case of the noninverting amplifier where all of the output voltage is fed back to the inverting input by a straight connection
Voltage-follower configuration

11. The value of the frequency at which the gain steadily decreases to a point where it is equal to unity
Unity-gain frequency Or unity gain bandwidth

12. It is always equal to the frequency at which the op-amp’s open- loop gain is unity or 0 dB.
Gain-bandwidth product

13. The relative angular displacement of a time-varying function relative to a reference.
Phase shift

14. The three terminals of the basic op-amp not including power and ground
Inverting input, noninverting input, and output

15. It has the highest input impedance and the lowest output impedance of the three amplifier configurations
Voltage-follower

16. The _________ of an op-amp equals the upper critical frequency.
Bandwidth

17. Two types of op-amp input operation.
Differential mode and common-mode

18. A ____________ differentiator uses a capacitor in series with the inverting input.
Ideal
19. An ideal op-amp has ___________ value for voltage gain, bandwidth, and input impedance.

20. What should be the output voltage of an op-amp when the differential input is zero
Zero

21. The ideal op-amp has __________ output impedance
Zero

22. The three basic op-amp configurations
Inverting, noninverting, and voltage follower

23. The closed-loop voltage gain is _________ than the open-loop voltage gain. (more or less)
Less

24. Does the gain of an op-amp decreases or increases as frequency increases above the critical frequency
Decreases

25. Devices such as the diode and the transistor which are separate devices that are individually packaged and interconnected in a circuit with other devices to form a complete, functional unit.
Discrete components
