Good day. Could anyone tell me how to simulate an equivalent Operational Amplifier in Simulink? I read somewhere that I had to do it with 2 adders and a gain block, but I don't know how. Thanks.

1. Please refer to attached image. 2. The attempt at a solution. I noted that Vb was grounded and would therefore be equal to 0 and because one of the two op-amp rules states that Va = Vb, both will be equal to 0. I wrote an equation at node Va: [Va - Vin]/R1 + [Va - Vout]/R2 =...

For some reason I can't get the answer right. It is given as 6 bits but I calculated it to be 5. What am I doing wrong?

Derive a symbolic expression (i.e., a formula containing symbols R1, R2, ..., etc., andarithmetic operators instead of numerical values) for the voltage gain of the amplifier What I am stuck at is the two nodes on each side of R4 I initially disregarded the node to the right of R4, which...

Hello. Here joined is the schematic of a small deflection amplifier. Outputs H0 & H1 are connected to electrodes placed in a vacuum volume. These outputs are protected by varistors. High voltage to collectors is 200 V DC. Sometimes, not very often, the head Op-Amp (LM324) is burnt. The only...

I know this is a comparator, but I am asked for the name of this circuit. Can I just say a comparator circuit, or a comparator op-amp? Or is there a specific name for this circuit arrangement?

Howdy, I'm using the opa2350 op amp to amplify a <1mV signal by 2000. The problem is I want to have a greater gain (either second stage or larger feedback resistor) however the DC level is reaching too high so that it reaches over 2 V, and I need it under 2 V in order for a digital read into an...
