Ques 4 (A): Any two:

a) Refer page #44 of our PERFECT ANSWERS BOOK


b) Solution:

Given data
Input voltages V1 = 0.2V, V2 = 0.5V, V3 = 0.4V
Input resistors R1 = 1k, R2 = 2k, R3 = 5k
Feedback resistor Rf = 10k
The formula of output voltage of inverting adder is given by:
Vo/Rf = - ((V1/R1) + (V2/R2) + (V3/R3))
Putting the values we get:
Vo/10 = - ((0.2/1) + (0.5/2) + (0.4/5)) = - ((0.2) + (0.25) + (0.08))
Vo/10 = - 0.53
Vo = 5.3V
