  2. Input impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input_impedance

    The losses due to input impedance (loss) in these circuits will be minimized, and the voltage at the input of the amplifier will be close to voltage as if the amplifier circuit was not connected. When a device whose input impedance could cause significant degradation of the signal is used, often a device with a high input impedance and a low ...

  3. Instrumentation amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_amplifier

    Typical instrumentation amplifier schematic. An instrumentation amplifier (sometimes shorthanded as in-amp or InAmp) is a type of differential amplifier that has been outfitted with input buffer amplifiers, which eliminate the need for input impedance matching and thus make the amplifier particularly suitable for use in measurement and test equipment.

  4. Transimpedance amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transimpedance_amplifier

    Transimpedance amplifier with a reverse-biased photodiode. In the circuit shown in figure 1 the photodiode (shown as a current source) is connected between ground and the inverting input of the op-amp. The other input of the op-amp is also connected to ground. This provides a low-impedance load for the photodiode, which keeps the photodiode ...

  5. Amplifier figures of merit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplifier_figures_of_merit

    The use of voltage gain figure is appropriate when the amplifier's input impedance is much higher than the source impedance, and the load impedance higher than the amplifier's output impedance. If two equivalent amplifiers are being compared, the amplifier with higher gain settings would be more sensitive as it would take less input signal to ...

  6. Miller effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_effect

    Although the term Miller effect normally refers to capacitance, any impedance connected between the input and another node exhibiting gain can modify the amplifier input impedance via this effect. These properties of the Miller effect are generalized in the Miller theorem .

  7. Damping factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping_factor

    Only the magnitude of the loudspeaker impedance is used, and the power amplifier output impedance is assumed to be totally resistive. Comparison of damping factors for a solid state amplifier (Luxman L-509u) and a tube amplifier (Rogue Atlas) In typical solid state and tube amplifiers, the damping factor varies as a function of frequency.

  8. Impedance parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_parameters

    Z-parameters are also known as open-circuit impedance parameters as they are calculated under open circuit conditions. i.e., I x =0, where x=1,2 refer to input and output currents flowing through the ports (of a two-port network in this case) respectively.

  9. Miller theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_theorem

    The op-amp inverting amplifier is a typical circuit, with parallel negative feedback, based on the Miller theorem, where the op-amp differential input impedance is apparently decreased to zero Zeroed impedance uses an inverting (usually op-amp) amplifier with enormously high gain A v → ∞ {\displaystyle A_{v}\to \infty } .
