Sir, in 8:40 of this video, isn't the slew rate is in microsecond and frequency is in second. Don't we need to divide right hand side by 10^6

[@lalacpp]

Thank you for the great videos they are really enlightening. Just a couple of questions lets say we make an op-amp how can i find the SR and how would i measure it?

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

The slew rate is usually given in the datasheet of the particular op-amp. You can also approximately measure it by applying the square wave to the op-amp and finding the time required to reach the maximum voltage using the oscilloscope in the lab.

[@lalacpp]

Thank you a lot :)

[@urmilapathivada2046]

Sir, I have got a doubt. Hope you will clear it. What I have actually understood is- In earlier opamps, there is a problem of instability and opamp may break into oscillations. So to avoid this, almost all new opamps are internally compensated . But this leads to reduction of gain even at very low corner frequency. So we add negative feedback which reduces gain and improves bandwidth because gain bandwidth product is constant. Is my understanding correct? Please let me know if I fail somewhere in relating all these things. And what is instability? Why is it happening? Please reply sir. Having an important interview.

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Yes, what you understood is correct. In simple terms, instability means, for the bounded input you are not getting bounded output.

[@gas-vc2zo]

Thank you for the explation! I am slightly confused on why the time period for the last example is 4us rather than 8us

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

At 2 us the square wave pulse will have a transition. That means it will go from high to low. The output of the op-amp will follow that transition in 2 us. Also here, it has been assumed that the duty cycle of the square wave pulse is 50 %. So it will reapeat after 4 us. I hope you will be able to visualise what i am saying. If you still have any doubt then do let me know here.

it's very helpful we need more videos on electronic topic

[@brentb5303]

Very nice job explaining slew rate and its limiting on-limiting effects on amplifier design specification. Many manufacturers don't include this spec in their manuals. Do you feel like this is due to a difficulty of their product to produce a clean signal throughout the designed 20-20,000 Hz band or is there so few examples of op-amp response not meeting criteria that they feel there is no reson to list the spec.

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Most of the manufacturers provide the value of slew rate of the op-amp with different supply voltages and also provides the graph of the variation of slew rate with supply voltage, capacitance, input voltage, temperature etc. As a designer, we need to select the op-amp which suits best to our application and have minimum distortion from this specs. I hope it will help you.

Thank u brooo awesome explaination...

[@pratikzanak8023]

5.54? If new input signal has ton=10us And slew rate is 0.5v/us then our output should take 5us to reach 5v???

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Since slew rate is 0.5 v/us, so it will take same 10 us time to reach 5V. But let's say, if on time is 5us, then it would reach only upto 2.5 V. It can't go beyond that because after that, signal goes to zero. So, in that case, we will get a triangular wave output with 2.5 V max.output. I hope it will clear your doubt.

[@viveknepal8959]

Thank you so much for this awesome explanation....But i have a small question.....can we increase the slew rate of any op-amp???

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

It is the inherent property of the given op- amp.it can't be increased using external components. If the application requires higher slew rate, then it's better to select the op-amp which can provide that slew rate.

[@urmilapathivada2046]

Sir thank you so much for the video. Got a doubt. Hope you respond. What are the possible ways to improve slew rate sir? And is non inverting amplifier of opamp has virtual ground concept? Please reply sir? Thanks in advance.

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

By using the op-amp with better slew rate, that problem can be solved. The different kinds of op-amp are used for different purpose. Some op-amps have better slew rate, some have better gain bandwidth product, some are low noise op-amps. So, depending on the requirement one can select the specific op-amp. And about your second question, the the concept of virtual short is applicable for non-inverting op-amp. As far as op-amp is operating in the linear region, V+ = V-. I hope it will clear your doubt.

[@trinetram707]

Thanks excellent work

[@pengyang8462]

In example2, 4volts need 4 us, so in one period it should need 8 us , isn't it? Because the period have -4 volts? Please correct me if im wrong. Thank you, nice video!

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

In example 2, the slew rate of the op-amp is 2V/us. So, to reach 4V, it requires 2us. And the waveform will not fo in negative, because the input square wave pulse only varies from 0 to 10V. So, output triangular wave will at max go up to 4V. And the time period of the output wave will be 4us. I hope it will clear your doubt.

[@abhilashabhi1918]

in the last example what is the use of slew rate of 2 mv

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

It will decide the frequency of the triangular wave.

[@waryeah]

Hi sir, For the triangular wave time period is 4us but for the square wave it is 2us. And frequency of square wave pulse is asked. so why is it 1/4MHz why not 1/2MHz

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

For square wave also, the time period will be 4 us. But it is ON for only 2 us. (2 us ON + 2 us OFF). So overall duration is 4 us. During the ON time of the square wave, there will be a positive slope of the triangular wave at the output, while during the OFF time, there will be a negative slope of the triangular wave. I hope, it will clear your doubt.

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Rise time is the time taken by a signal to reach from 10 % to 90 % of the maximum value. While the slew rate defines how fast the output of the op-amp can change. I hope it will clear your doubt.

[@IITMIAN_ABHILASH]

What is the slew rate for rectangularwave What's it formal Sir

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

In case of a triangular wave, the slope of the triangular wave is the limiting factor. The output can not go faster than the slew rate, so slop has to be lesser than the slew rate. e.g if SR= 1V/ us And if the triangular wave has a slop of 5V/us, then the output of the op-amp cannot follow the triangular wave and output will be slew rate limited (to 1V/us) I hope it will clear your doubt.

[@beeralingaiah.h.1740]

741 how much frequency we can use?

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

741 has gain bandwidth product of 1 MHz, so for small signal unity gain bandwidth is 1 MHz. If you set a gain of 10, then it can be operated up to 100 kHz. For large signal (in Volts), the frequency is limited by the slew rate. The slew rate of 741 is 0.5 uV/s. So, depending on the amplitude of the signal, using the expression discussed in this video, you can find the usable frequency range.
