If an op-amp comparator has a gain of 100,000, an input difference of 0.2 mV above reference, and a supply of 12 V, the output will be
20 V.
12 V.
10 V.
15 V.

No 10^6*0.2*10^-3 will give 200 v and the max output is 12 v.

So it's option B.

Gain = vo/vi
Vo = gain*vi
Vo = 100000*0.2*10^-3
Vo = 20v
As it is crossing more than the power supply we do not consider 20 v and the max output should be of only 12 v so the answer is 12.

Vdiff = V+ - V-;
Here V+ dominates since Vdiff = +Ve.
As Non-inverting terminal dominates, the voltage does to +Vsat.

How to solve this?

Britto said:   7 years ago
Here the supply is only 12V. So the max Vo after the gain is only 12V.

How to solve this? Please anyone explain.

In case of comparator if vin >0 [it means 0.2 is greater than reference] then vo is +vs[12v] and if vin<0 then vo will be -12 v.

12V is the wrong answer as the max output voltage is = 90% of 12 equal to 10.8~11V.

What is the equation we have to use here?

Scott said:   1 decade ago
Since it is a comparator, if Voltage in (V+) is greater than the reference voltage, the output is the voltage in. if not, it is 0. (or the voltage at V-)
and this voltage is .2 mV greater than the reference
