8.2 Voltage Follower Analog Simulation with MPLAB® Mindi™
In MPLAB® Mindi™, open Voltage_Follower.wxsch schematic from the GitHub repository.
The circuit shown in the left half of Figure 8-3 is driven by a 50 Hz, 256 mVPP sinusoidal signal source with 256 mV DC offset. The op amp is powered by a 5V battery source.
Simulate by selecting; Simulator → Run Schematic or press Function Key F9. The resulting simulation output graph is shown in the right half of Figure 8-3. It can be noticed that the output signal follows closely the input signal. It is precisely what would be expected from a voltage follower application.
