Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You need to design a differential amplifier for temperature sensing that will amplify a small voltage difference caused by temperature variations. How would you choose the resistor values to achieve a needed gain of 10, and what considerations might you need based on sensor characteristics?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Balance gain with the input signal quality and sensor characteristics.

Question 2

Given a differential input of voltages 0.5V and 0V with Rf at 10kΞ© and R1, R2 both at 1kΞ©, calculate the output voltage of the differential amplifier.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember to apply the difference between inputs in your calculations.
