Lab 8: Operational Amplifiers

Lab report from the “Art of Electronics” student manual. 8-1 Open Loop Test Circuit Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to become acquainted with the normal output of an operational amplifier (op amp). An op amp is a class of amplifiers that are close to an ideal differential amplifier. Op amps consist of about…

Lab 4: Transistors 1

4-1 Transistor Junctions are Diodes   Introduction: In this lab, we are to check to see if we have a bad transistor. In doing so, we will become familiar with the structure and components of a 2N3904 NPN transistor. A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify and switch electronic signals and electrical power.…
