1.0 Classification of Amplifiers

Before proceeding with the concept of feedback it is
useful to classify amplifiers into 4 basic categories based
on their input & output signal relationships.

2.0 Feedback

Feedback is a technique where a proportion of the output of a
system (amplifier) is fed back and recombined with input.

There are two types of feedback amplifier.

2.1 Positive Feedback

Positive feedback is the process when the output is added to
the input, amplified again, and this process continues.

Example. In a PA system, you get feedback when you put the
microphone in front of a speaker and the sound gets uncontrollably
loud (you have probably heard this unpleasant effect.
2.2 Negative Feedback

Negative feedback is when the output is subtracted from the
input.

Example. Speed control. If the car starts to speed up above the
desired set-point speed, negative feedback causes the throttle to
close, thereby reducing speed; similarly, if the car slows, negative
feedback acts to open the throttle.
The use of negative feedback reduces the gain. Part of the output
signal is taken back to the input with a negative sign.
3.0 Feedback Concept
Basic structure of a single - loop feedback amplifier
3.1 Feedback Network
• This block is usually a passive two-port network.
• contain resistors, capacitors, and inductors.
• Usually it is simply a resistive network.
3.2 Sampling Network
• The output voltage is sampled by connecting the feedback network in
shunt across the output.
• Type of connection is referred to as voltage or shunt or node sampling.
3.2 Sampling Network
• The output current is sampled by connecting the feedback network in
series with the output
• Type of connection is referred to as current or series or loop sampling.
3.3 Comparator or Mixer Network
• voltage - applied feedback
• identified as voltage or series or loop mixing.
3.3 Comparator or Mixer Network
• current - applied feedback
• identified as current or shunt or node mixing.

5.0 Feedback Connection Types
There are four basic ways of connecting the feedback
signal:
•
•
•
•
Voltage-series feedback
Voltage-shunt feedback
Current-series feedback
Current-shunt feedback
 Series refers to
connecting the
feedback signal in
series with the
input signal
voltage.
 Shunt refers to
connecting the
feedback signal in
shunt (parallel)
with an input
current source.
Fig. 3-2: Feedback amplifier types: (a) voltage-series feedback; (b)
voltage-shunt feedback; (c) current-series feedback; (d) current-shunt
feedback.
Series feedback connections tend to increase the
input resistance, whereas shunt feedback
connections tend to decrease the input resistance.
Voltage feedback tends to decrease the output
impedance, whereas current feedback tends to
increase the output impedance.

Output Impedance with Feedback
The output impedance for the connections of Fig. 3-2 is
dependent on whether voltage or current feedback is used.
For voltage feedback, the output impedance is decreased,
whereas current feedback increases the output impedance.
Voltage-Series Feedback
Referring to Fig. 3-3, the output impedance can be
determined by applying a voltage V, resulting in a current I.

6.0 Advantages of Negative Feedback
1.
Stabilization of gain

2.
Reduce non-linear distortion

3.
make the gain less sensitive to changes in circuit
components e.g. due to changes in temperature.
make the output proportional to the input, keeping the
gain constant, independent of signal level.
Reduce the effect of noise

minimize the contribution to the output of unwanted
signals generated in circuit components or extraneous
interference.
6.0 Advantages of Negative Feedback
4. Extend the bandwidth of the amplifier

Reduce the gain and increase the bandwidth
5. Modification the input and output impedances

raise or lower the input and output impedances by
selection of the appropriate feedback topology.
6.1 Stabilization of Gain
Stabilization of the gain of an amplifier against changes in the
components (e.g., with temperature, frequency)
 If you represent the gain without feedback (the open loop
gain) by Ao, then the system gain with negative feedback is

where  is the fraction of the output which feeds back as a
negative voltage at the input. The extent of this stabilizing
influence can be illustrated as follows:

6.2 Decreasing Distortion/noise with
Feedback

The use of negative feedback can discriminate against sources of
noise or distortion within an amplifier.
6.2 Decreasing Distortion/noise with

against, with more reduction of distortion which arises near the
output.
