If the voltage is transferred unchanged (the voltage gain A v is 1), the amplifier is a unity gain buffer; also known as a voltage follower because the output voltage follows or tracks the input voltage. Although the voltage gain of a voltage buffer amplifier may be (approximately) unity, it usually provides considerable current gain and thus ...
A circuit diagram of a buffer amplifier made using an operational amplifier. = = (realistically, the differential input impedance of the op-amp itself, 1 MΩ to 1 TΩ) Date: 26 January 2009: Source: Own work
A simple circuit diagram showing the labels of an n–p–n bipolar transistor. A transistor can use a small signal applied between one pair of its terminals to control a much larger signal at another pair of terminals, a property called gain.
The current gain is unity, so the same current is delivered to the output load R L, producing by Ohm's law an output voltage v out = v Thév R L / R S, that is, the first form of the voltage gain above. In the second case R S << 1/g m and the Thévenin representation of the source is useful, producing the second form for the gain, typical of ...
Thus this circuit finds applications as a voltage buffer. In other words, the circuit has current gain (which depends largely on the h FE of the transistor) instead of voltage gain. A small change to the input current results in much larger change in the output current supplied to the output load.
The net open-loop small-signal voltage gain of the op amp is determined by the product of the current gain h fe of some 4 transistors. In practice, the voltage gain for a typical 741-style op amp is of order 200,000, [16] and the current gain, the ratio of input impedance (~2−6 MΩ) to output impedance (~50 Ω) provides yet more (power) gain.
as long as the loop gain : is much greater than unity. Fig. 4. Bode plot of uncompensated transimpedance amplifier [5] In the Bode plot of a transimpedance amplifier with no compensation, the flat curve with the peak, labeled I-to-V gain, is the frequency response of the transimpedance amplifier. The peaking of the gain curve is typical of ...
