A sensor behaves like a 5 V source with an internal resistance Rs = 2.2 kΩ. It feeds a load RL = 2.2 kΩ through an ideal voltage follower (unity-gain buffer). Find the load current IL supplied by the op-amp output.
Op-amp circuits worksheet with answers
1.Easy
Vs = 5 VRs = 2.2 kΩRL = 2.2 kΩ
IL = mA
2.Easy
An inverting amplifier with an ideal op-amp must have a voltage gain of −8. The feedback resistor is Rf = 220 kΩ. Find the input resistor R1.
Av = −8Rf = 220 kΩ
R1 = kΩ
3.Medium
The op-amp is ideal and runs from ±15 V supplies. Find the output voltage Vout.
Vin = 0.3 VR1 = 2 kΩRf = 4.7 kΩ
Vout = V
4.Medium
Choose the feedback resistor Rf that gives this non-inverting amplifier a voltage gain of 21.
R1 = 10 kΩAv = 21
Rf = kΩ
5.Hard
The op-amp is ideal and runs from ±15 V supplies. The resistor ratios are not matched. Find the output voltage Vout.
V1 = 1.3 VV2 = −0.2 VR1 = 10 kΩR2 = 22 kΩR3 = 4.7 kΩR4 = 4.7 kΩ
Vout = V
6.Hard
Two ideal op-amp stages are connected in cascade: an inverting amplifier (R1, Rf1) followed by a non-inverting amplifier (R2 to ground, Rf2 in the feedback). Both run from ±15 V supplies. The input is Vin = 0.75 V. Find the output voltage Vout.
R1 = 1 kΩRf1 = 1 kΩR2 = 100 kΩRf2 = 1 kΩVin = 0.75 V
Vout = V
