A: In reality they are never zero but practically guarantee to be virtual zero. It is possible to get rid of the input offset voltage by biasing the circuit, Anyhow op amps have some offset but hardly ever zero.

What is the cause of input offset voltages and current?

Due to the manufacturing process of op-amps, the differential input transistors may not have exactly the same values, meaning they are not exactly matched. This means that voltage would have to be placed on the non-inverting terminal, with the non-inverting terminal grounded, in order to produce a zero output. The voltage required at the non-inverting terminal in called the input offset voltage.


WHAT are the pins in IC 741?

The LM741 pins depends on the particular package selected. The most common arrangement is... 1.) Offset Null 2.) Inverting Input 3.) Non-Inverting Input 4.) Supply Voltage Minus 5.) Offset Null 6.) Output 7.) Supply Voltage Plus 8.) No Connection This is true for both the 8 pin metal can and the 8 pin DIP. Typical connection is to connect a 10K potentiometer between the two offset nulls with the wiper connected to Supply Voltage Minus.


What is voltage offset?

Input offset voltage is the equivalent voltage at the input of an operational amplifier. If an amplifier has a voltage gain of ten and an input offset voltage of 10 microvolts, a level of 100 microvolts will appear at the output with no input. Manufacturers try to design an op amp so the input offset voltage is as small as possible to minimize this error voltage at the output of the amplifier, especially for applications where small voltages are being amplified.

What is offset current?

On a differential amplifier while there is some voltage offset there is also current offset which is dependent on the value of the F/B resistance the bigger value the more offset.

How do you calculate output offset voltage?

Output offset voltage is the output of an operational amplifier when the two inputs are shorted together (and often tied to ground). >> The output offset voltage (Voo) is caused by mismatching by two input terminals. Even though all the components are integrated on the same chip, it is not possible to have two transistors in the input differential amplifier stage with exactly the same characteristics. This means that the collector currents in these two transistors are not equal, which causes a differential output voltage from the first stage. The output of first stage is amplified by following stages and possibly aggravated by more mismatching between them. Thus the output voltage caused by mismatching between two input terminals is the output offset Voo .

How does 741 op amp chip works?

The 741 is a general purpose operational amplifier which features improved performance over industry standards like the LM709. They are direct, plug-in replacements for the 709C, LM201, MC1439 and 748 in most applications. The offset voltage and offset current are guaranteed over the entire common mode range. The amplifiers also offer many features which make their application nearly fool-proof; overload protection on the input and output, no latch-up when the common mode range is exceeded, as well as freedom from oscillations.
