Forum Post: RE: OP07 thermocouple amplifier
Ranjeet,I suggest measuring the voltage for every node while verifying that the output does not change during the nodal measurements. With every node's value available, the problem will be easier to...

Andrew,Your calculation of maximum ~17uA current on REF pin is correct for G=1 but this is not the main reason for keeping the source impedance driving the REF pin below 15ohm. Since any added source...

Thanks will debug..But the circuit is OK I hope.Any other modification is needed. offset input I havent connected. I think I dont need to.

Hello,I'm working into an application to measure low levels of current (1pA or less) and I don't find a solution to implement a variable gain to achieve different ranges of measurements (1pA-1uA). I...

Hello Haig,The difference between VSA and VSD must remain < 200mV. We don't test the failure modes of conditions which violate our electrical specifications, but a variety of failures might occur....

Hi everyone,First post, I think...Here is my question: I am trying to amplify a 10-100pA signal (coming from a photodiode array in a TIA configuration). Is it possible to preamplify this signal at...
View ArticleForum Post: RE: TIA gain selector for low current measurement
Hello Albert,As you stated, for 1pA currents you need devices with ultra-low input bias currents (e.g. INA116, OPA129, LMC6001). For such a large load current range you need to change the gain so you...

Hello Shihab,Thank you for filling in some of the details.Since your source is driven by op amps, I will assume they are low-impedance and balanced. Therefore I think you should look at using the...

David,For noise reasons you generally want as much gain as possible in the preamp, however this is complicated by the somewhat large capacitance of your detector which will result in peaking of the...

Francois,I believe you are not simulating open-loop gain properly; AOL needs to be tested using the inverting configuration and post-process using: AOL=Vout/Vos. This is shown in the TINA-TI Reference...

Alright, thanks again for all the help. Much appreciated! I am going to dig into both books and see if I can come up with something. Seems like I have quite a few options.

Hi Marek,Thank you. I am looking at circuit options other than an op amp to drive the REF pin. That is why I would like to know how much current my circuit must source or sink while providing less...

Hi, RanjeetI reviewed the datasheet, and i found that the inverting pin is pin2. You should reverse pin 2 and pin 3. And the gain in this circuit, it is R3/R1. Please reconnect it and have a...
