Inverting Amplifiers For the first part of this lab I built the following amplifier circuit :

This circuit is an inverting amplifier. For the Op Amp I used a LF411 amplifier for !in I used a 1"" ohm resistor and for !out I used a #""" Ohm resistor for a theoretical gain of $%#"&. I then did a bode plot anal'sis.

Lab view defines gain as #"(Log1"$)out*)in& which means our theoretical gain is #"(Log1"$%#"& which e+uals #,. -e should e.pect to see a gain of #, on the /ode 0lot and that1s prett' much e.actl' what we1re seeing.

2e.t I switched out the Op amp for a TL",1 amplifier and the results are as follows :

The gain on this Op Amp seems to be a little less than the e.pected value which leads me to believe that the LF411 is a better $ more e.pensive & Op Amp. Non Inverting Amplifier 2e.t I built the following non inverting amplifier circuit :

I used the LF411 Op Amp and the same ! values as before.

Once again I anal'3ed the behavior with a /ode Anal'3er :

The gain is right around #, which we calculated to be the theoretical gain in part $1& of this lab. -oot -oot 4 The Mad Adder : For this part of the Lab I1m tas5ed with building an adder circuit with a gain of % $)16.7()#& To do this I used the following circuit :

8ine onl' had two resistors !1 9 1""" Ohms and !# 9 #""" ohms and !f 9 1""" ohms. The circuit wor5ed e.actl' as e.pected. I tested it with low pea5 A: voltages and ;: voltages.

The Difference Amplifier For this part of the lab I built the following amplifier :

I used the same !esistor values as before and was pleased to see that the circuit behaved e.actl' as e.pected giving me an output voltage of :

The Differentiator Circuit : For this part of the lab I built the following differentiator circuit :

I used a ."4< microFarad capacitor and a 1""" Ohms resistor. I used an oscilloscope to plot the input and output waveforms for three different input waveforms. The output waveform is in 'ellow and the input waveforms are in blue :

This is definitel' the most accurate differentiator circuit we have built in lab so far. It1s beautiful 4 =ver' output is the derivative of the input waveform. The Integrator Circuit For this part of the Lab I built the following integrator circuit :

At first I used the same component values as before but I was getting some prett' horrible clipping. I reali3ed this was because if 'ou do the math the output voltage is proportional to:

Our value of !: is ver' small which is putting a huge multipl'ing factor in front of the integral.

I corrected this b' using larger values for ! and : to ma5e the multipl'ing factor smaller. The results for three input waveforms are as follows: Once again input is bluw 'ellow is output.

The results are prett' decent. >omething tells me there is a wa' to ma5e this a lot nicer $ a more complicated circuit but this wor5s for now &
