Title: Design and implementation of instrument amplifier.
Objectives: To design and setup an instrumentation amplifier using three op amps.
Equipment Required:
1. Op-Amp IC 741 2. Dual power Supply 12V 3. Resistor
4. Capacitors 5. Function Generator 6. Cathode Ray Oscilloscope
7. Multimeter 8. Breadboard 9. Connecting wires.
Theory:
Instrumentation amplifier s are widely used in data acquisition systems, remote sensing
applications and instrumentation systems to measure temperature ,humidity, light intensity and weight
etc. Most of the instrumentation systems use a transducer in a bridge circuit. Instrumentation amplifier
facilities the amplification of potential difference taking place due to the imbalance of a bridge circuit
proportional to a change in physical quantity. The main features of instrumentation amplifiers are high
gain, high input resistance, high CMRR etc.
Design
VO = (V1 – V2) [1 + (2Ri /RAmax)]
Given, 2 Ri / RAmax = 3. Take R and RA = 10 k
Circuit Diagram:
Fig.1: Instrumentation amplifier using Op-Amp.
Procedure:
1. Set up V1 = 0.5V dc and V2 = 0.4 V dc and measure output voltage on CRO or using multi meter,
keeping RA in minimum position.
2. Repeat the above step by keeping RA in minimum position. Measure the difference in gain. This is
the difference mode gain Ad
3. Feed V1 = V2 = 0.5V and observe the gain keeping RA in minimum position. This is common mode
gain Ac. Calculate CMRR from the relation CMRR = 20 log (Ad /Ac)
Precautions:
1. Make null adjustment before applying the input signal.
2. Maintain proper Vcc levels
Result:
Common mode gain AC = - 10.67 V
Difference mode gain Ad = 740 pV
CMRR = 203.178
