OBJECTIVE:
1.1 To demonstrate the use of operational amplifier for performing
differentiation and integration.

INTRODUCTION:
2.1
Differentiator
A differentiator is a circuit that performs a calculus operation called differentiation. It
produces an output voltage proportional to the instantaneous rate of change of the
input voltage. Common applications of a differentiator are to detect leading and
trailing edges of a rectangular pulse or to produce a rectangular output from a ramp
input.

Figure 2.1: Waveform of differentiator
As shown in Figure 2.1, the output an electronic differentiator is proportional to the
rate of change of the input waveform at any point in time. To perform differentiation, a
capacitor is connected in series with the input as shown in Figure 2.2. The equation
(2.1) can be used to determine the output voltage of the op-amp differentiator.

Figure 2.2: Ideal Differentiator
Figure 2.3: Practical Op-amp differentiator
The ideal differentiator is inherently unstable in practice due to the presence of some
high frequency noise in every electronic system. An ideal differentiator would amplify
this small noise. For instance, if vnoise = Asin(t) is differentiated, the output would
be vout = Acos(t). Even if A = 1V, when  = 210MHz) vout would have an
amplitude of 63V! To circumvent this problem, it is traditional to include a series
resistor at the input and a parallel capacitor across the feedback resistor as shown in
Figure 2.3, converting the differentiator to an integrator at high frequencies for
filtering.
2.2
Integrator
An integrator is a circuit that performs a mathematical operation called integration.
The most popular application of an integrator is in producing a ramp of output
voltage, which is linearly increasing or decreasing voltage. The integrator is
sometimes called the Miller integrator, after the inventor.

Figure 2.4: Waveform of integrator
As shown in Figure 2.4, the output an electronic integrator is proportional to the total
area under the input waveform up to that point in time. To perform integration, a
capacitor is connected in the feedback path of the amplifier as shown in Figure 2.5.
However, any dc voltage appearing at the input of an integrator will cause the output
voltage to rise (or fall) until it reaches its maximum possible value. To prevent this
undesirable occurrence, a resistor RF , is connected in parallel with the feedback
capacitor as illustrated in Figure 2.6. Any dc input voltage, such as the input offset
voltage of the amplifier, is then simply amplified by the dc gain, RF/R1.
