14.18 An inverting amplifier has a closed-loop voltage gain of
−25
. The op-amp
used has a low-frequency, open-loop gain of
2 × 10

and has a unity-gain
bandwidth of 10
6
Hz. (a) What is the 3 dB frequency
f

of the op-amp
and the 3 dB frequency
f

of the closed-loop amplifier? (b) Using the re-
sults of part (a), what is the magnitude of the voltage gain for the open-loop
and closed-loop amplifiers at
f = 0.25 f

and at
f = 5 f

?
14.19 The open-loop low-frequency gain of an op-amp is
A
o

dB. At a fre-
quency of
f = 10
4
Hz, the magnitude of the open-loop gain is 38 dB.
Determine the dominant-pole frequency and the unity gain bandwidth.
14.20 A noninverting amplifier uses 5 percent precision resistors with nominal
values of
R

and has a unity-gain bandwidth of
f
T
= 1.2
MHz.
(a) What is the nominal low-frequency closed-loop gain and bandwidth?
(b) Determine the range in low-frequency closed-loop gain and bandwidth.
14.21 The low-frequency open-loop gain of an op-amp is
2 × 10
5
and the second
pole occurs at a frequency of 5 MHz. An amplifier using this op-amp has a
low-frequency closed-loop gain of 100 and a phase margin of 80 degrees.
Determine the dominant-pole frequency.
14.22 Two inverting amplifiers are connected in cascade to provide an overall
voltage gain of 500. The gain of the first amplifier is
−10
and the gain of the
second amplifier is
−50
. The unity-gain bandwidth of each op-amp is
1 MHz. (a) What is the bandwidth of the overall amplifier system? (b) Re-
design the system to achieve the maximum bandwidth. What is the maxi-
mum bandwidth?
14.23 Three inverting amplifiers, each with

,are
connected in cascade. Each op-amp has a low-frequency gain of
