6/27/2017 493695446 1/27 Amplifier Gain One interesting characteristic of an amplifier is that it is a unilateral device—it makes a big difference which end you use as the input! Most passive linear circuits (e.g., using only R, L and C) are reciprocal. With respect to a 2-port device, reciprocity means: Z 12 Z 21 and Y12 Y21 For example, consider these two open-circuit voltage measurements: I1 V1 2-port Circuit V2 Z 21I1 I2 V1 Z 12I2 Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas 2-port Circuit V2 Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 2/27 Every function an Eigen function If this linear two-port circuit is also reciprocal, then when the two currents I1 and I 2 are equal, so too will be the resulting open-circuit voltages V1 and V2 ! Thus, a reciprocal 2-port circuit will have the property: V1 V2 when I1 I 2 Note this would likewise mean that: V2 V1 I1 I 2 And since (because of the open-circuits!): V2 Z 21I1 and V1 Z 12I2 We can conclude from this “experiment” that these trans-impedance parameters of a reciprocal 2-port device are equal: Z 12 Z 21 Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 3/27 Every function an Eigen function Contrast this with an amplifier. A current on the input port will indeed produce a voltage on an open-circuited output: I1 V1 V2 Z 21I1 However, amplifiers are not reciprocal. Placing the same current at the output will not create the equal voltage on the input—in fact, it will produce no voltage at all! I 2 V1 0 V2 Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 4/27 Every function an Eigen function Since for this open-circuited input port we know that: Z 12 V1 , I2 the fact that voltage produced at the input port is zero (V1 0 ) means the trans-impedance parameter Z 12 is likewise zero (or nearly so) for unilateral amplifiers: Z 12ω 0 (for amplifiers) Thus, the two equations describing an amplifier (a two-port device) simplify nicely. Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 5/27 Every function an Eigen function Beginning with: V1 Z11 I1 Z12 I2 V2 Z 21 I1 Z 22 I2 Now since Z 12 0 , we find: V1 Z11 I1 V2 Z 21 I1 Z 22 I2 Q: Gee; I’m sort of unimpressed by this simplification—I was hoping the result would be a little more—simple. A: Actually, the two equations above represent a tremendous simplification—it completely decouples the input port from the output, and it allows us to assign very real physical interpretations to the remaining impedance parameters! To see all these benefits (try to remain calm), we will now make a few changes in the notation. Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 6/27 Every function an Eigen function First we explicitly denote voltage V1 as Vin , and likewise V2 as Vout (the same with currents I). Additionally, we change the current definition at the output port, reversing the direction of positive current as flowing outward from the output port. Thus: Iout I2 And so, a tidy summary: Iin Iout Vin Vout Vin Z 11 Iin Vout Z 21 Iin Z 22 Iout Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 7/27 Every function an Eigen function From this summary, it is evident that the relationship between the input current and input voltage is determined by impedance parameter Z11 —and Z11 only: Z11 Vin Iin Thus, the impedance parameter Z11 is known as the input impedance Z in of an (unilateral!) amplifier: Zin ω Jim Stiles Vin ω Iin ω Z11ω The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 8/27 Every function an Eigen function Now, consider the case where the output port of the amplifier is open-circuited ( Iout 0 ): Iin Iout 0 Vin oc Vout The (open-circuit) output voltage is therefore simply: Vout Z 21 Iin Z 22 Iout Z 21 Iin Z 22 0 Z 21 Iin The open-circuit output voltage is thus proportional to the input current. Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 9/27 Every function an Eigen function The proportionality constant is the impedance parameter Z 21 —a value otherwise known as the open-circuit trans-impedance Z m : Z m ω oc Vout ω Iin ω Z 21ω Thus, an (unilateral!) amplifier can be described as: Vin Zin Iin Vout Z m Iin Z 22 Iout Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 10/27 Every function an Eigen function Q: What about impedance parameter Z 22 ; does it have any physical meaning? A: It sure does! Consider now the result of short-circuiting the amplifier output (Vout 0 ) : Iin sc Iout Vin Vout 0 Since Vout 0 : sc Vout 0 Zm Iin Z22 Iout we can quickly determine the short-circuit output current: sc Iout Jim Stiles Z m Iin Z 22 The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 11/27 Every function an Eigen function Q: I’m not seeing the significance of this result!? A: Let’s rearrange to determine Z 22 : Z m Iin Z 22 sc Iout oc Note the numerator—it is the open-circuit voltage Vout Zm Iin , and so: Z 22 Z m Iin sc Iout oc Vout sc Iout Of course, you remember that the ratio of the open-circuit voltage to shortcircuit current is the output impedance of a source: Zout Jim Stiles oc Vout I sc out Z22 The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 12/27 Every function an Eigen function Thus, the output impedance of an (unilateral) amplifier is the impedance parameter Z 22 , and so: Vin Zin Iin Vout Z m Iin Zout Iout Q: It’s déjà vu all over again; haven’t we seen equations like this before? A: Yes! Recall the first (i.e., input) equation: Vin Zin Iin is that of a simple load impedance: Iin Vin Zin Iin Vin Z L Zin Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 13/27 Every function an Eigen function And the second (i.e., output) amplifier equation: Vout Zm Iin Zout Iout is of the form of a Thevenin’s source: where: Vg Z m Iin and Z g Zout Iout Zg Jim Stiles Vg Vout Vout Vg Z g Iout The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 14/27 Every function an Eigen function We can combine these two observations to form an equivalent circuit model of an (unilateral) amplifier: Iin Iout Zout Vin Z in Z m Iin Vout Vin Zin Iin Vout Z m Iin Zout Iout Note in this model, the output of the amp is a dependent Thevenin’s source— dependent on the input current! Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 15/27 Every function an Eigen function Q: So, do we always use this equivalent circuit to model an amplifier? A: Um, actually no. The truth is that we EE’s rarely use this equivalent circuit (not that there’s anything wrong with it!). Instead, the equivalent circuit we use involves a slight modification of the model above. Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 16/27 Every function an Eigen function To see this modification, we first insert the first (i.e., input) equation, expressed as: V Iin in Zin into the second (i.e., output) equation: Vout Z m Iin Zout Iout Z m Z in Vin Zout Iout Thus, the open-circuit output voltage can alternatively be expressed in terms of the input voltage! Z oc Vout m Z in Vin Note the ratio Z m Zin is unitless (a coefficient!). Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 17/27 Every function an Eigen function This coefficient is known as the open-circuit voltage gain Avo of an amplifier: Avo oc Vout Vin Zm Zin Z 21 Z11 The open-circuit voltage gain Avo is perhaps the most important of all amplifier parameters. To see why, consider the amplifier equations in terms of this voltage gain: Vin Zin Iin Vout Avo Vin Zout Iout Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 18/27 Every function an Eigen function The equivalent circuit described by these equations is: Iin Iout Zout Vin Z in AvoVin Vout In this circuit model, the output Thevenin’s source is again dependent—but now it’s dependent on the input voltage! Thus, in this model, the input voltage and output voltage are more directly related. Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 19/27 Every function an Eigen function Q: Are these the only two was to model a unilateral amplifier? A: Hardly! Consider now admittance parameters. A voltage on the input port of an amplifier will indeed produce a short-circuit output current: I1 V1 I2 Y21V1 Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 20/27 Every function an Eigen function However, since amplifiers are not reciprocal, placing the same voltage at the output will not create the equal current at the input—in fact, it will produce no current at all! I2 I1 0 V2 This again shows that amplifiers are unilateral devices, and so we find that the trans-admittance parameter Y12 is zero: Y12ω 0 Jim Stiles (for amplifiers) The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 21/27 Every function an Eigen function Thus, the two equations using admittance parameters simplify to: I1 Y11 V1 I2 Y21 V1 Y22V2 with the same definitions of input and output current/voltage used previously: Iin Iout Vin Vout Iin Y11 Vin Iout Y21 Vin Y22Vout Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 22/27 Every function an Eigen function As with impedance parameters, it is apparent from this result that the input port is independent from the output. Specifically, an input admittance can be defined as: Yin ω Iin ω Vin ω Y11ω Note that the input admittance of an amplifier is simply the inverse of the input impedance: Iin ω 1 Yin ω Vin ω Zin ω And from this we can conclude that for a unilateral amplifier (but only because it’s unilateral!): Y11 Jim Stiles 1 Z11 The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 23/27 Every function an Eigen function Likewise, the second amplifier equation: Iout Y21 Vin Y22Vout is of the form of a Norton’s source: Iout Ig Zg Vout Iout I g Vout Z g where: I g Y21Vin Jim Stiles and Zg The Univ. of Kansas 1 Y22 Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 24/27 Every function an Eigen function More specifically, we can define a short-circuit trans-admittance: Ym Y21 Zout 1 Y22 and an output impedance: so that the amplifier equations are now: Iin Vin Zin Iout Ym Vin Vout Zout Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 25/27 Every function an Eigen function The equivalent circuit described by these equations is: Iin Iout Vin Z in Ym Vin Zout Vout Note in this model, the output of the amp is a dependent Norton’s source— dependent on the input voltage. However, this particular amplifier model is likewise seldom used. Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 26/27 Every function an Eigen function Instead, we again insert the input equation: Vin Iin Y11 Into the output equation: Iout Y21 Vin Vout Zout Y 21 Y 11 Iin Vout Zout Note the ratio Y21 Y11 is unitless (a coefficient!). This coefficient is known as the short-circuit current gain Ais of an amplifier: Ais Jim Stiles sc Iout Iin Ym Y11 Y21 Y11 The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 6/27/2017 493695446 27/27 Every function an Eigen function Thus, we can also express the amplifier port equations as: Iin Vin Zin Iout Ais Iin Vout Zout So, the equivalent circuit described by these equations is the last of four we shall consider: Iin Iout Vin Z in Ais Iin Zout Vout In this circuit model, the output Norton’s source is again dependent—but now it’s dependent on the input current! Thus, in this model, the input current and output current are more directly related. Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS
