Hello All,
I am working with Pt1000 in 4 wire configuration and so far I have designed a current source providing current less than 1mA and now I am working on the difference amplifier. For the op amp I am using LM358 Dual Opamp in Single Supply configuration. I am using the resistances of 47k and 470k to give me a gain of 10. Now at the output I read voltages like 2.063V or 2.153V, how can I calculate temperature in degrees celcius from this information. e.g. is it like 2.063 /(10*3.85)!!!! Also when I replace Pt1000 with 1 kohm resistance i get some voltage like 1.921V, this voltage should correspond to 0 degrees, now how do I do normalization???
finally, should I stick with Difference Op Amp or switch over to Instrumentation Op Amp??? any advice!!!!!
