  2. Negative-feedback amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative-feedback_amplifier

    Paul Voigt patented a negative feedback amplifier in January 1924, though his theory lacked detail. [4] Harold Stephen Black independently invented the negative-feedback amplifier while he was a passenger on the Lackawanna Ferry (from Hoboken Terminal to Manhattan) on his way to work at Bell Laboratories (located in Manhattan instead of New Jersey in 1927) on August 2, 1927 [5] (US Patent ...

  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. Operational amplifier applications - Wikipedia

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

    In order for a particular device to be used in an application, it must satisfy certain requirements. The operational amplifier must. have large open-loop signal gain (voltage gain of 200,000 is obtained in early integrated circuit exemplars), and. have input impedance large with respect to values present in the feedback network.

  5. 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 ...

  6. Harold Stephen Black - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Stephen_Black

    This amplifier design improved, but did not solve, the problems of transcontinental telecommunication. [2] After years of work Black invented the negative feedback amplifier which uses negative feedback to reduce the gain of a high-gain, non-linear amplifier and makes it act as a low-gain, linear amplifier with much lower noise and distortion.

  7. Common collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_collector

    From this viewpoint, a common-collector stage (Fig. 1) is an amplifier with full series negative feedback. In this configuration (Fig. 2 with β = 1), the entire output voltage Vout is placed contrary and in series with the input voltage Vin. Thus the two voltages are subtracted according to Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL) (the subtractor from ...

  8. 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 } .

  9. Frequency compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_compensation

    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 ...
