Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is option 4.
Types of Noise in OP-AMP
1.) Thermal Noise
Thermal noise is caused by the thermal agitation of charge carriers (electrons or holes) in a conductor.
This noise is present in all passive resistive elements.
Hence, statement 1 is correct.
2.) Shot noise
Shot noise is a type of electronic noise that originates from the discrete nature of the electric charge.
Shot noise in electronic circuits consists of random fluctuations in a DC current because current actually consists of a flow of discrete charges (electrons).
Hence, statement 2 is also correct.
3.) Popcorn noise
Burst noise, also called popcorn noise, appears to be related to imperfections in the semiconductor material and heavy ion implants.
Burst noise makes a popping sound at rates below 100 Hz when played through a speaker.
Hence, statement 3 is also correct.
4.) Flicker noise
It is present in all active devices and generally dominates at low frequencies.
Hence, statement 4 is incorrect.
