The percentage change in Af (due to variations in some circuit parameter) is smaller than the pecentage cahnge in A by the amount of feedback. For this reason the amount of feedback

is also known as the desensitivity factor.

The Four Basic Feedback Topologies

Voltage Amplifiers (V/V)

Current Amplifiers (I/I)

Transconductance Amplifiers (I/V)

Transresistance Amplifiers (V/I)

The four basic feedback topologies:

(a) voltage-sampling series-mixing (series-shunt) topology;

(b) current-sampling shunt-mixing (shunt-series) topology;

(c) current-sampling series-mixing (series-series) topology;

(d) voltage-sampling shunt-mixing (shunt-shunt) topology.

Polar Plot

Af s( )A s( )

1 A s( ) s( )The Nyquist Plot intersects the negative real axis at 180. If this intersection occurs to the left of the point (-1, 0), we know that the magnitude of the loop gain at this frequency is greater than the unity and the system will be unstable. If the intersection occurs to the right of the point (-1,0) the system will be stable.It follows that if the Nyquist encircles the point (-1,0) the amplifier will be unstable.
