ELECTRONICS – OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER (OPAMP) MCQs

1. The output of an integrator is given as:

ANSWER= (A) $V_O\;=-\frac1{RC}\int_0^tV_{in}\operatorname dt$
Explanation:-Integrator is a circuit in which output voltage waveform is the integral of the input voltage waveform and is given as $V_O\;=-\frac1{RC}\int_0^tV_{in}\operatorname dt$

2. If the output of opamp changes by 30 V in 6 µs then the slew rate is :

Explanation:- slew rate is defined as the maximum rate of change of output with respect to time. Its unit is V/µs, so $SR\;={\left.\frac{dv_o}{dt}\right|}_{max}$

3. If the common mode gain is 0.27 and diffrential voltage gain is 2700, the CMRR is:

ANSWER= (D) both B and C
Explanation:- CMRR is defined as the ratio of differential voltage gain (Ad)to the common-mode gain (Ac)
so , CMRR =Ad/Ac =2700/0.27 = 10000
CMRR in dB = 20log10CMRR = 20log1010000= 80dB.

4. Identify the given circuit:

Explanation:-The given circuit is a noninverting amplifier with Rf= 0 and Ri= ∞ .
So output voltage Vo=(1+Rf/Ri)Vi= (1+ 0/∞)Vi =Vi
since output voltage is same as the input voltage and also gain is equal to 1 ,that’s why this circuit is called a voltage follower 0r unity gain amplifier. As it only provides a means of isolating an input signal from a load ,so it is also known as a Buffer amplifier

5. The bandwidth of an ideal opamp is:

Explanation:- The bandwidth of an ideal opamp should be infinite, so that any frequency signal ranging from o to ∞ Hz may be amplified without any attenuation.

6. An opamp has a feedback resistance RF=20kΩ and the resistance in the input side on inverting terminals are R1=20kΩ, R2=10kΩ, R3=5kΩ. The corresponding inputs are Vi1= +8V , Vi2= -2V , Vi3= +1V. The non-inverting terminal is grounded then the output voltage is:

Explanation:- When all inputs are applied on the same terminal of opamp then the circuit act as an adder. So the output of the adder is given as
Vo= -RF[Vi1/R1 + Vi2/R2 + Vi3/R3]=-20[+8/20 + (-2)/10 +1/5]= -8V.

7. In an opamp used as a differentiator R=1MΩ and C=2µF. If a signal Vi=2sin2000πt mV is used as input voltage then the output voltage is:

Explanation:- The output equation of differentiator is given as
Vo= -RC d(vi)/dt = -1×106 x 2×10-6d(2sin2000πt)/dt= – 8000π cos2000πt mV = – 8π cos2000πt V

8. Opamp amplifies the difference between the voltages applied at the non-inverting input and inverting input.

Explanation:- Opamp amplifies the difference between the two input voltages applied at the non-inverting and inverting terminals. It does not amplify the input voltages themselves.

9. The number of pin in 741 opamp IC is:

Explanation:- The 741 op-amp IC has 8 pins. The function of each pin is listed below:
Pin 1: offset null
Pin 2:Inverting Input
Pin 3:Non-inverting Input
Pin 4:Negative power supply(V-)
Pin 5:offset null
Pin 6:output
Pin 7:positive power supply(V+)
Pin 8:No connection(NC)

10. The input and output resistance of an ideal opamp is :
