  3. What is Feed back? • The process by which a fraction of output energy is injected back to the input is called feed back. • The amplifiers using this technique are called feed back amplifiers. 9AEI303.33 3

  4. Characteristics of basic amplifiers Important characteristics of an amplifier are its : • Voltage gain. • Input impedance. • Output impedance. • Band width. These parameters are more or less fixed for a basic amplifier. 9AEI303.33 4

  5. Need for feed back • The parameters of a basic amplifier are required to changed as per the need. • These changes can be brought out efficiently by introducing feed back in the amplifier. 9AEI303.33 5

  6. Types of feed back Depending upon the effect of feed back signal there are two types of feed back. • Negative feed back. • Positive feed back. 9AEI303.33 6

  7. What is negative feed back? When the feed back signal decreases the net input signal i.e., the feedback signal is 1800out of phase with respect to input signal, it is called negative or Degenerative feed back. 9AEI303.33 7

  8. What is positive feed back? When the feed back signal increases the net input signal i.e., the feedback signal is in phase with the input signal, it is called Positive or Regenerative feed back. 9AEI303.33 8

  9. Advantages of Negative Feed back: • Improves stability in gain. • Reduces distortion. • Reduces the noise level at the output. 9AEI303.33 9

  10. Disadvantages of negative feed back • decreases the gain. • decreases the distortion. • decreases the noise. Due to these features: it is used in amplifiers. 9AEI303.33 10

  11. Disadvantages of positive feed back • Increases the distortion. • Increases the noise. • Poor stability. • Due to these features: • it is seldom used in amplifiers. • it is used in oscillators. 9AEI303.33 11

  14. Feed back amplifier is one in which a part of the • output of an amplifier is fed back to the input. • It consists of • basic amplifier with a gain A. • feed back network. • sampling network. • mixing network. 9AEI303.34 14

  15. Basic amplifier • This stage simply amplifies the signal that is present at its input . • The voltage gain of this amplifier is “A.” 9AEI303.34 15

  16. Feed back network It is usually a passive two port network which may contain resistors , capacitors & inductors. 9AEI303.34 16

  17. Sampling Network • Using this network, we sample the output voltage or current. The sampled energy is fed to the feedback network linearly in series or shunt with the output network. Sampled Signal is Current Sampled Signal is Voltage 9AEI303.34 17

  18. Mixing network • This network mixes the feedback energy with the applied input. The feedback signal is connected in series or in shunt with the input signal. SHUNT FEEDBACK SERIES FEEDBACK 9AEI303.34 18

Xi = Xs-Xf Xf = ß.Xo Xo = A.Xi Substituting in Xi Xo =( Xs- ß.Xo)A Xo(1+A. ß) = A.Xs Xo/Xs = A/(1+A. ß) Xo/Xs is called the gain of the feed back amplifier. Af =A/(1+A.b) 9AEI303.34 20

  21. Advantages of negative feed back amplifier. • Increased stability. • Increased band width. • Less distortion . • Reduces non linear distortion and noise. • Input and output impedance can be modified as desired. • High fidelity i.e., more linear operation. 9AEI303.34 21

  23. Basis of classification Classification of negative feed back amplifiers is based on the method of mixing and sampling employed. 9AEI303.35 23

  24. Classification Negative feed back amplifiers are classified into:- • Voltage series feedback amplifier. • Current series feedback amplifier. • Current shunt feedback amplifier. • Voltage shunt feedback amplifier. 9AEI303.35 24

  25. Voltage series feedback amplifier Basic amplifier A Vi Vo RL Vs bVo Feed back b Vf This connection increases the input resistance and decreases the output resistance . 9AEI303.35 25

  30. Voltage shunt feedback amplifier • A resistor is connected between the collector and base of the transistor. • The output voltage Vo is much greater than the input voltage Vi and is 180 degrees out of phase with Vi. • The portion of output is connected through the feedback resistor Rf to the base. 9AEI303.36 30

  31. Voltage shunt feedback amplifier 9AEI303.36 31

  32. Hence: • The feedback current If=(Vi-V0)/Rf ~V0/Rf = β V0. • Feedback factor β = -1/Rf. • The feedback current is proportional to the output voltage, this circuit is an example of voltage-shunt feedback amplifier. 9AEI303.36 32

  33. Current series feedback • The feedback signal is the voltage Vf across RE and the sampled signal is the load current Io. • The feedback signal Vf= Io RE. • The feedback voltage is directly proportional to the output current. • The feedback factor b = Vf/Io= -Io.RE/Io= -RE. 9AEI303.36 33

  34. Current series feedback 9AEI303.36 34

  35. Current shunt feedback • A two transistor CE amplifier with feedback from the second emitter to the base of first through the resistor Rf. • The input current is the difference of the current at the base of transistor due to Vs and the current If. • This is smaller than the magnitude of current without feedback. 9AEI303.36 35

  36. Current shunt feedback 9AEI303.36 36

  37. Feedback signal If =RE Io/ (Rf + RE.) • Feedback factor β = If/Io = RE/(Rf +RE.) If, Rf >>RE b = RE/Rf 9AEI303.36 37

  38. Voltage series feedback • Common collector amplifier is also known as emitter follower. • The output voltage Vo is developed across the emitter resistor RE and is fedback to the input in series. • The feedback factor b = Vf/Vo = 1. 9AEI303.36 38
