I need to amlify a low-voltage.
I have a contactless temp sensor (SMTIR-9901).
http://www.smartec.nl/infrared_sensor.htm
It gives a few mV output (+- 0-20mV depending of air temperature).
It have two output-pins + and -.
I am planning to use a LM358 OP-AMP. Can i wire up a Non-Inverting circuit like this?
But there is still a problem if this works. The output voltage is depending on outside temp of the sensor. If the air-temp is warmer than the sufrace it is meassuring the sensor will make a negative voltage. What will happen then? Will the amplifier amplify a negative voltage?
