Subtractor
Operational Amplifier kit.
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 subtractor
amplifier so named because the output signal is
define as the voltage subtractor of the two inputs. If desire multiply
be certain attenuation.
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:
Vin or Vcom should be smaller then (VCC-VSS-0.4V)/2
Since
the Op-Amp is not ideal the error can be adjust via adjustable
gain trimmer (PY). Additional multi turn trimmer (PO) assigned
to accurate adjust Op-Amp offset-null if desire.
The
board function is define in the following formulas:
Where;
G
= Gain
R1
= R2 = RX
Vout1
= Vcom - G * Vin
