Differential
Operational Amplifier.
The
operational amplifier (op- amp) is a highly
efficient monolithic integrated circuit. An
amplifier has an input port and an output port. In a linear
amplifier, output signal = A * (time) input signal, where A is
the amplification factor or gain (positive or negative number). The
Op-Amp has a very high gain, high input impedance, and DC coupled
difference amplifier with a low impedance single ended output.
An
ideal op-amp, by itself, is not a very useful device since any
finite input signal would result in infinite output. By
connecting external resistors around the ideal op-amp, we
construct useful amplifier circuits. The basic differential
amplifier, so named because the output signal is
define as the difference voltage between the inputs. If desire,
it multiply
be certain amplitude.
The
kit should be powered via 9V battery. Simply connect the battery
(+) poll to the VCC, and the negative poll (-) to the Ground (GND).
Note:
Vin1 or Vin2 should be smaller then (VCC-VSS-0.4V)
Since
the Op-Amp is not ideal the error can be adjust via adjustable
gain trimmer (P1) Model A only.
The
board gain function is define in the following formulas (model
A):
When
R2/R1 = R4/R3
RG
= (P1 + RP1)
When
R5 = R6 = RF; 2RF = R5 + R6
Gain
= Vout/ (V1 - V2) = (1 + (RF)/(RG))(R2/R1)
For
example model A: If R5 = R6 = R4 = R3 = R2 = R1 = 100K and
RG = 2K the Gain = 101 (V1-V2)
