Op amp Definition and 307 Threads

So I did the first part, and got the gain as 11. I also did part c, and got approximately 80khz, but I'm not sure what to do for b). I know that at the 3db frequency, the voltage is at 1/20.5 of it's amplitude. So can I just use the equation f=(slew rate)/(2pi*A), and set A to 1V/20.5, and...

It was much easier scanning the pictures and problem than trying to recreate: I began by doing a source transform, making Vs = is*Rs, and placing Rs in series instead of parallel. I then did KCL at Vn. I tried to break the KCL eq down to il/is, but just ended up with some un-godly...

I have attached image. Thanks in advance.

Hello, I am trying to design a foundation for an audio preamp that is powered by a single 9V battery. I am successful so far except the single power supply part. I am using the voltage divider scheme to get a +4.5V and a -4.5V reference voltages. With no load the supply voltages are close to...

Hello all. I was just wondering if it is possible to use an inverting opamp configuration with feedback to regulate an output voltage V0 without the use of BJT's? For example, the following sketch: http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/2389/opamp.png V0 = Vs * (R1-R2) /2R1 Mathematically, V0...

For an inverting op amp with the positive input grounded, the equation for V(out) is (Vin)*Rf/Rin. Thats fine But what if the positive input is not grounded? What if there is a voltage applied to that input as well? How would I find V(out) when the positive input voltage is larger than the...

Dear experts, I am thinking of using an op amp to trigger a circuit. The +ve input to the op amp should raise '1' (high) if the voltage is 5v and not anything less. The -ve input to the op amp should always be '0' (low) and so i thin i short it to ground. I wonder what op amp should i...

Could sb explain to me how to calculate the 3db frequency of the inverting op amp, please? 1. For non-inverting op amp If Bandwidth gain product is 1.5x10^6 Hz and gain is 20dB then the F3db is given by Bandwidth gain product over 20. It equals 150kHz. 2. For inverting op amp the F3db is...
