I have aqcuired a load cell with a digital scale setup at the right price.
I want to use the load cell for another purpose so I need to build a circuit for it & then check it from the scale readout to verify things.
I have the datasheet Attached for the load cell, & have a few questions to get a better understanding of things before attempting the circuit.
The Rated Output on the Datasheet is 3.05mV/V:
Could someone explain this for me, I know what 3.05mV is, to me it reads 3.05mV/Per Volt?
I'm not sure if I have made the correct decision regarding the instrument amplifier chip but I purchased an INA125P.
Is this suitable?
On the datasheet - Attached:
I see that the more gain you have the greater the gain error, so is it best to have low gain from the chip for accuracy & then amplify it again with a precision opamp or does that defeat the purpose of the chip?
Or is that the correct way to do this?
Thanks
