Electronics - Operational Amplifiers - Discussion

Ideal oprational amplifier has

- open loop Gain infinte
- input impedance infinite
- output impedence Zero
- bandwidth infinite
- offset voltave zero

Thanks meda for the details.

What is Offset voltage?

Input offset voltage is the equivalent voltage at the input of an operational amplifier. If an amplifier has a voltage gain of ten and an input offset voltage of 10 microvolts, a level of 100 microvolts will appear at the output with no input. Manufacturers try to design an op amp so the input offset voltage is as small as possible to minimize this error voltage at the output of the amplifier, especially for applications where small voltages are being amplified.

Characteristics of an ideal operational amplifier are:
1.Infinite Open Loop Gain
2.Infinite Input Impedance
3.Zero Output Impedance
4.Infinite Bandwidth
5.Zero Output Offset
6.Zero Noise Contribution

What is open loop gain?

Open loop gain is the gain of op amp without feedback.
