OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIERS



AMPLIFIER PROBLEM: The range of  Vsensor is 0-1V and we desire 0-10V

 Use a 741 op-amp


Conditions:
Circuit must draw no more than 1mA
Power supply must not exceed 30mW each
Resistors should be 1/4W (standard)

Desired circuit:
Inverting amplifier with a gain of -10


Through calculations we concluded with using two resistances of  1000 Ohms for Rx and 909 Ohms for Ry.
Rth= 834.01 Ohms. The experiment was then done to test our theoretical values:


The table below shows our results:

Our goal was to obtain a gain of -10. Our data concluded verifying this through experimental practice. We learned about the power of op-amps and about different ways to confront a situation. Small variability can be neglected due to human or tool error.
