Derive the transfer fun tion of the ir uit in Figure 2 (for an ideal op amp) and show
that it an be written in the form

[1 + (1 /j)] [1 + j (/2 )]

where 1 = 1/C1 R1 and 2 = 1/C2 R2 . Assuming that the ir uit is designed su h that
2 1 , nd approximate expressions for the transfer fun tion in the following frequen y
regions:
1. 1
2. 1 2
3. 2
Use these approximations to sket h a Bode plot for the magnitude response.

Figure 3: Figure for Problem 3

For the Wein-bridge os illator of Figure 3, let the losed-loop amplier (formed by the
op amp and the resistors R1 and R2 ) exhibit a phase shift of 0.1 rad in the neighborhood
of = 1/CR. Find the frequen y at whi h os illations an o ur in this ase, in terms of
CR.

Problem 4
Plot the transfer hara teristi of the ir uit in Figure 4.

Problem 5
For the ir uit in Figure 5 nd L(j), the frequen y of zero loop phase, and R2 /R1 for
os illation.
