Q2. Calculate the narrow-band noise figure for the

amplifier shown in the figure on the right.
Use, 4kT = 1.621020 .

R1 = 10 k
R2 = 50 k
RS = 50 k
vS = 0.10 Vrms
in = 0.0010 pA/Hz
en = 1.0 nV/Hz

Q3. If the narrow-band noise figure of the inverting

amplifier shown in the figure on the right is to be less than
6.0 dB, what is the maximum allowable op-amp noise
voltage density? Use, 4kT = 1.61020 .

R1 = 100 k
R2 = 1.0 M
RS = 100 k
vS = 1.0 Vrms
in = 0.05 pA/Hz
en = ? (maximum)

Q4. Using the provided information, calculate the wide-band

signal-to-noise ratio of the input signal for the amplifier
configuration shown. Use, 4kT = 1.621020 . Assume all the
noise due to the feedback resistors is included in the plotted
curve, and that the in+ noise is negligible.

R2 = 50 k
RS = 50 k
VS = 0.10 Vrms
B = 0.10 Hz 10 kHz
