CONCEPTS & THEORIES
amplifiers-with-negative-feedbackAbout Negative Feedback Amplifier
A Negative-feedback amplifier is an electronic amplifier that subtracts a fraction of its output from its input, so that negative feedback opposes the original signal.It is the method of feeding a portion of the amplified output to the input but in opposite phase. The applied negative feedback can improve its performance and reduces sensitivity to parameter variations due to manufacturing or environment.There are two main types of negative feedback circuits. They are −
-Negative Voltage Feedback
-Negative Current Feedback
Negative Voltage Feedback
In this method, the voltage feedback to the input of amplifier is proportional to the output voltage. This is further classified into two types. They are −
-Voltage-series feedback
-Voltage-shunt feedback
Negative Current Feedback
In this method, the voltage feedback to the input of amplifier is proportional to the output current. This is further classified into two types.They are −
-Current-series feedback
-Current-shunt feedback
Effects of negative feedback on an amplifier
The major Effects that are introduced by negative feedback are:
-Reduced sensitivity to changes in open loop gain.
-Increases the bandwidth – While open loop amplifier have high gain, they generally have low bandwidth.
-Increase input impedance and decreases output impedance – Basically makes the amplifier closer to an ideal amplifier
-Decreases the output noise of the amplifier
-Reduces the impact of noise from components inside the loop
-Corrects for non-linearity inside the loop – Distortion is reduced
