Q.  Why are the Op-amps with open loop configuration not used in linear applications?
- Published on 23 Oct 15

a. High risk of distortion
b. High risk of clipping of output signal
c. Both a & b
d. None of the above

ANSWER: Both a & b
 
Open loop configuration of Op-amp may increase the threat of distortion as well as clipping of output signal. Due to this reason, the output gets switched between the positive and negative saturation levels. Hence, this is the major drawback because of which it is highly impossible to use Op-amps with open loop configurations in linear circuit applications.
