Gain with feedback

• Gain without feedback is A
• Feedback factor β

• Gain with feedback is (1+A β)

Voltage series feedback
• With zero feedback then Vf=0 the voltage gain of amplifier stage is
A=Vo/Vs=Vo/Vi
• If feedback of Vf is connected then,
Vi=Vs-Vf
Vo=AVi=A(Vs-Vf)=AVs-AVf=A(Vs-A(βVo)
Then, (1+ βA)Vo=AVs
Overall gain with feedback is
Af=Vo/Vi=A/(1+A β)
This shows that gain of feedback has reduced by factor (1+A β)
Voltage shunt feedback
• Af=Vo/Is=A Ii / (Ii+If)=AIi/(Ii+ βAIi)
• Af=A/(1+ βA)
Input impedance with FB
• Ref to fig(1)
Ii=Vi/Zi=(Vs-Vf) / Zi = (Vs- βVo) / Zi
Ii Zi= Vs- βAVi
Vs=Ii Zi+ β A Vi = Ii Zi+ β A Ii Zi
Zif = Vs/Ii=Zi+(βA)Zi=Zi(1+ βA)
