  2. 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 ...

  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 - 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 ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. 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.

  7. Schmitt trigger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmitt_trigger

    It is a system with positive feedback in which the output signal fed back into the input causes the amplifier A to switch rapidly from one saturated state to the other when the input crosses a threshold. A > 1 is the amplifier gain B < 1 is the feedback transfer function. Circuits with hysteresis are based on positive feedback.

  8. Differential amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_amplifier

    Differential amplifiers are found in many circuits that utilize series negative feedback (op-amp follower, non-inverting amplifier, etc.), where one input is used for the input signal, the other for the feedback signal (usually implemented by operational amplifiers). For comparison, the old-fashioned inverting single-ended op-amps from the ...

  9. Differentiator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiator

    A differentiator circuit (also known as a differentiating amplifier or inverting differentiator) consists of an ideal operational amplifier with a resistor R providing negative feedback and a capacitor C at the input, such that: is the voltage across C (from the op amp's virtual ground negative terminal).
