SUMMING AMPLIFIER
 As the input impedance of the op-amp is large, more than one input signal
can be applied to the input terminals
 Such circuits will performs the addition of the applied signals at the output,
hence it is called summer or adder circuits
 Depending upon the sign of the output, the summer circuits are classified
as inverting summer and non-inverting summer
 In the inverting summer all the input signals to be added are applied to the
inverting input terminals of the op-amp

 By properly selecting Rf, R1 and R2 , we can have a weighted addition of the input
signals like (aV1+bv2) as indicated by equation (6)
 By using this method n input voltages can be added together
 Thus the sum of the two input signals amplified by (R f/R) times with a negative
sign hence the circuit is called inverting summing amplifier
 Due to the negative sign of the sum at the output it is called inverting amplifier
(It shows the phase inversion)

INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER
 Many industrial systems, consumer systems and process control system
requires accurate measurement of the physical quantities like temperature,
humidity, pressure etc
 The measurement of the physical quantities is generally carried out with

the help of a device called as transducer
 Transducer is a device that converts one form of energy into another

Ex: Thermocouple convert from heat energy to electrical signal

33
 But most of the transducer outputs are generally of very low level
signals, and it is not sufficient to drive the next stage of a system (in
the range of mV and µV)
 One more practical difficulty is, low level signal will gets subjected to
the noise and atmospheric interferences
 Hence general amplifier is not suitable for amplifying such signals, so

we need a special amplifier to amplify such a low level signal

34
 A special amplifier which is used for such a low level amplification with high CMRR, high
input impedance to avoid loading is called as an instrumentation amplifier
 Such a special featured instrumentation amplifier have become an integral part of

modern testing and measurement instrument
 The instrumentation amplifier is also called as data amplifier and is basically a

difference amplifier. The expression for its voltage gain is generally of the form,

35
 A good instrumentation amplifier has to meet the following
specifications
1) Finite, accurate and stable gain
2) Easier gain adjustment
3) High input impedance
4) Low output impedance
5) High CMRR
6) Low power consumption
7) Low thermal and time drifts
8) High slew rate

36
Difference amplifier as a instrumentation amplifier using one op-amp
 The basic difference amplifier using op-amp amplifies the differential
input and hence can be considered as the instrumentation amplifier

37
 The output voltage of the such difference amplifier is,

38
 Main limitations:
1) Low input impedance
2) Imbalance of the circuit
 Hence basic difference amplifier is not used as a instrumentation

amplifier
 To get a very high input impedance, the difference amplifier circuit

can be modified by using buffer or voltage follower circuits at the
inputs

39
Instrumentation amplifier using three op-amp
 The commonly used instrumentation amplifier circuit is one using

three op-amps
 This circuit provides high input resistance for accurate measurement

of signals from transducers
 A non-inverting amplifier is added to each of the basic difference

amplifier inputs

41

42

43

44

45
 Main advantages
1) Using variable resister RG, the gain can be varied
2) Gain depends on external resistance RG, hence it can be adjusted

accurately and made stable
3) Input impedance depends on input impedance of non-inverting

terminal which is very high
4) The output impedance of the op-amp A3 is very low and CMRR is

very high
46
PROBLEMS

47
 Example-1: Determine the range of the gain if the potentiometer is
varied over its entire range for the following instrumentation
amplifier

48

49
 Exercise-1: Design an instrumentation amplifier using three op-amps

with a gain that can be varied from 1 to 500

50
 Example-2: For the instrumentation amplifier shown below, determine
the value of RG if the required gain is 1000

VOLTAGE TO CURRENT CONVERTER
 In a voltage to current converter, the output load current is
proportional to the input voltage
 According to the load, V to I converter can be classified into:

(i). Floating load
(ii). Grounded load
 In floating type V to I converter R L is not connected to the ground

where as in grounded type on end of RL is connected to the ground

54
V to I converter with floating load

55
V to I converter with floating load
 The input voltage Vi is converted into the output current of Vi/R1
 This current flows through the signal source and load, therefore signal source
should be capable of providing this load current
 The proportional constant is generally 1/R1 hence this circuit is also called
transconductance amplifier or it is also called as voltage controlled current
source (VCCS)
 This current maintained properly for all the load like (R,C,LED)

56
V to I converter with grounded load
 When one end of the load is grounded, it is no longer possible to place the load
within feedback loop of the op-amp
 In this circuit the load resistance RL is connected to ground and it is also known
as Howland current converter
 The analysis of the circuit is accomplished by determining the voltage v1 at the

non-inverting input terminal and then establishing the relationship between v1
and the load current

58
I TO V
CONVERTER
59
59
CURRENT TO VOLTAGE CONVERTER
 In I to V converter, the inverting terminal of the op-amp is at virtual ground,
no current flow through Rs and current iS flow through feed back resistor Rf
 Thus the output voltage V0=-isRf is capable of measuring lowest current which
depends on bias current IB of the op-amp
 Sometimes the resistor Rf is shunted with the capacitor Cf to reduce high

frequency noise and the possibility of oscillations
 This circuit also known as transresistance amplifier

DIFFERENTIAT

62
62
DIFFERENTIATOR
 The circuit which produces the differentiation of the input voltage at
its output is called differentiator
 The differentiator circuit designed using passive device is called

passive differentiator
 The differentiator designed using active devices is called active

differentiator
 In differentiator the output waveform is always a derivative of the

input waveform
63
DIFFERENTIATOR
Ideal active op-amp differentiator
 The active differentiator can be obtained by exchanging the input
resistor R1 with the capacitor in the inverting amplifier
Op-amp differentiator
64
DIFFERENTIATOR
 The node B is grounded, hence V A is also at ground potential by virtual ground
concept. The input current of op-amp is zero, entire current I 1 flows through the
resistance Rf.

65
DIFFERENTIATOR
 The equation shows that the output is C1Rf times the differentiation of
the input and this product C1Rf is called time constant of the
differentiator
 The value of RfC1 should be very small to operate the differentiator in all
range of frequency
 The negative sign indicates that there is a phase difference of 180º

between input and output signals
 The main advantage of active differentiator is the small time constant

required for differentiation

DIFFERENTIATOR
Disadvantages of Ideal active op-amp differentiator
 At high frequency the differentiator may become unstable and break into
oscillations
 High sensitive to noise because of decrease in input impedance as

frequency increases
 This problem can be addressed using some additional parameters in the

basic differentiator circuit
 Such differentiator circuit is called as practical differentiator circuit

73
DIFFERENTIATOR
Practical differentiator
 The noise and stability at high frequency can be corrected in the
practical differentiator circuit using the resistance R 1 in series with C1
and the feedback capacitor C1 in parallel with resistor Rf

DIFFERENTIATOR
Frequency response of the Practical differentiator
 As the frequency increases the gain increases till f=f b at the rate of
+20dB/decade but after f=fb the gain decreases at a rate of
-20dB/decade
 This is because of the combination of R 1C1 and RfCf. So by selecting

RfC1 << T the true differentiation results
 If fc is the unity gain bandwidth then the values of f c < fb < fa where fc
is the unit gain bandwidth of the op-amp under open loop
configuration
80
DIFFERENTIATOR
Steps to design differentiator circuit
1. Choose fa as the high frequency of the input signal
2. Choose C1 to less than fa and calculate Rf value
3. Choose fb as 10 times fa which ensures fa<fb
4. Now calculate R1 and Cf from R1C1=RfCf
5. Select Rcomp =R1||Rf=R1
Applications
a. In wave shaping circuit to detect high frequency component
b. Rate of change detector in the FM modulators
