REET 420 Week 2 Lab Overview
Objectives
- Given an operational amplifier circuit, be able to recognize the
effects of the biasing components on the input biasing current and the
output voltage.
- Given an operational amplifier circuit, be able to compute the
power consumed by the load, the power provided by the dc supplies, and the
power that the op amp must be able to dissipate.
- Continue to develop expertise with Multisim.

Software
- Multisim 11
Introduction
One of the most convenient ways to control the power to lower power
loads is with an operational amplifier. It is important to understand the
effect of adding gain to the op amp circuit and to be able to calculate the
output voltage. Op amps may, typically, be powered by over 50 V at 5 A. Working
with this much voltage and current requires you to anticipate the power
delivered to the load, the power provided by the dc supplies, and the power
that the op amp must be able to dissipate. Before beginning your Lab, download

Required Software
This Lab will use the following Lab Resources:
- Virtual Lab – Citrix
Use a personal copy of the software or access the Lab Resources, go to
the Course Resources page – Lab Resources section.
Lab Steps
STEP 1: The Noninverting Op Amp
- When biasing the op amp, proper consideration must be given to the
effect of the input bias current. Higher power op amps, such as the
OPA548, are typically configured very similarly to the familiar LM741.
Simulate the circuit shown below, and confirm the input bias current and
the output voltage.
- Run the simulation again, setting Rf = 10 kΩ and Ri = 100 Ω. What are the new values for the input biasing
current and the output voltage?
STEP 2: DC Signal, Power Op Amp Calculations
- Calculate the power delivered to the load, provided by the supply,
and dissipated by the op amp for the circuit shown below. It is running
from + and – 12 Vdc and delivering 5 Vdc to a 10 Ω resistive load. Include
all of your work for full credit.
- Simulate the circuit to verify your results, and include figures of
the wattmeter readings in your report.
- Decrease the power supply to 10 V and recompute the
power losses, as in part 1.

STEP 3: AC Signal, Power Op Amp Calculations
- Calculate the power delivered to the load, provided by the supply,
and dissipated by the op amp for the circuit shown below. It is running
from + and – 12 Vdc and delivering a 5 Vp sine wave to a 10 Ω
resistive load. Include all of your work for full credit.
- Simulate the circuit to verify your results, and
include figures of the wattmeter readings in your report.

STEP 4: Questions and Discussion
- Why is it important to carefully compute the power consumption in
power op amp circuits?
- Under what operating conditions, does the worst case
power dissipation for an op amp occur?
