In this experiment, you will make a microphone
amplifier, using the operational amplifier (op amp)
a
s a non-inverting amplifier with two power sources.
T
he earphone acts as a microphone.
Begin by sliding the switch to position B and
finishing the wiring for the circuit. When your wiring
is ready, set the switch to position A to turn on the
power. Now rotate the control fully clockwise, and
lightly tap your “microphone” – the earphone. The
tapping sound is heard through the speaker.
The earphone is a better microphone if you remove
the end that you put in your ear, by turning it
counter-clockwise to unscrew it. To adjust the
volume, turn the control.
As you can observe in the schematic, the
operational amplifier uses two power sources: 4.5V
for the circuit and 9V for the IC. The signal from the
earphone is connected to the operational amplifier’s
non-inverting input through the control. The input is
amplified, and the output is applied to the
transformer. The gain through the amplifier is about
100, determined by the ratio R1/R2 (100kW / 1kW =
100).
