Figure 1. Voltage-to-Current Converter Q1. Consider the voltage to current converter circuit in Fig. 1.
a) Find the output impedance of this VCCS using Thevenins theorem.
b) Derive the equation for the load current I.
c) Draw the Norton equivalent circuit of this current source.
d) Determine R to pass 0.1V1(t) mA through the load resistor RL.
e) Simulate this circuit in PSpice with the R value you have found in part d). Change the load resistance (RL=100,10k,100k), and observe the current through the load. Comment on the result. Provide the circuit schematic and simulation output.
(V1=1Vdc,+Vcc=12V,-Vcc=-12V & Use the op amp uA741/EVAL)
f) Discuss the disadvantages of the voltage to current converter circuit in Fig. 1.
g) Discuss the steps of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) design and manufacturing process, and provide your PCB layout for this circuit.
