  2. Negative feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_feedback

    A simple negative feedback system is descriptive, for example, of some electronic amplifiers. The feedback is negative if the loop gain AB is negative.. Negative feedback (or balancing feedback) occurs when some function of the output of a system, process, or mechanism is fed back in a manner that tends to reduce the fluctuations in the output, whether caused by changes in the input or by ...

  3. Operational amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_amplifier

    An op amp with negative feedback (a non-inverting amplifier) If predictable operation is desired, negative feedback is used, by applying a portion of the output voltage to the inverting input. The closed-loop feedback greatly reduces the gain of the circuit. When negative feedback is used, the circuit's overall gain and response is determined ...

  4. Negative-feedback amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative-feedback_amplifier

    A negative-feedback amplifier (or feedback amplifier) is an electronic amplifier that subtracts a fraction of its output from its input, so that negative feedback opposes the original signal. [1] The applied negative feedback can improve its performance (gain stability, linearity, frequency response, step response ) and reduces sensitivity to ...

  5. Frequency compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_compensation

    In electronics engineering, frequency compensation is a technique used in amplifiers, and especially in amplifiers employing negative feedback.It usually has two primary goals: To avoid the unintentional creation of positive feedback, which will cause the amplifier to oscillate, and to control overshoot and ringing in the amplifier's step response.

  6. Operational amplifier applications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_amplifier...

    where Z dif is the op-amp's input impedance to differential signals, and A OL is the open-loop voltage gain of the op-amp (which varies with frequency), and B is the feedback factor (the fraction of the output signal that returns to the input). [3] [4] In the case of the ideal op-amp, with A OL infinite and Z dif infinite, the input impedance ...

  7. Feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedback

    Negative feedback can be used to correct output errors or to desensitize a system to unwanted fluctuations. [46] In feedback amplifiers, this correction is generally for waveform distortion reduction [47] or to establish a specified gain level. A general expression for the gain of a negative feedback amplifier is the asymptotic gain model.

  8. Harold Stephen Black - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Stephen_Black

    The Negative feedback amplifier allowed Bell system to reduce overcrowding of lines and extend its long-distance network by means of carrier telephony. It enabled the design of accurate fire-control systems in World War II, and it formed the basis of early operational amplifiers, as well as precise, variable-frequency audio oscillators. [2]

  9. Voltage clamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_clamp

    The experimenter sets a "holding voltage", or "command potential", and the voltage clamp uses negative feedback to maintain the cell at this voltage. The electrodes are connected to an amplifier, which measures membrane potential and feeds the signal into a feedback amplifier.
