    How Can I Convert a -0.1V to 1V Output Into a 0V to 4V Range for an ADC Input?

    Better yet this page on that website has a calculator for that circuit http://www.daycounter.com/Calculators/Op-Amp/NonInverting-Op-Amp-Resistor-Calculator.phtml Could anyone let me know what I should be entering as the inputs to this calculator? Vout 4(V) Gain ? R1 ? (KOhms) V1...

    How Can I Convert a -0.1V to 1V Output Into a 0V to 4V Range for an ADC Input?

    I have learned about op amps but only breifly, we haven't went into depth about them yet in my course. I think what's happening in this circuit is they are using a voltage divider first, and then using a non inverting amplifier to boost the voltage. I am not really sure what the R? and C? are...

    How Can I Convert a -0.1V to 1V Output Into a 0V to 4V Range for an ADC Input?

    I found this circuit http://www.daycounter.com/Circuits/OpAmp-Level-Shifter/OpAmp-Level-Shifter.phtml I think this does exactly what I am looking for, but I guess I'm unsure of how to change it to my needs. Does anyone have any ideas of how I could use this to do accomplish my goal?

    How Can I Convert a -0.1V to 1V Output Into a 0V to 4V Range for an ADC Input?

    While searching around the internet for these I stumbled across Clamping using diodes. I think this would work great for what I need but I think these circuits can only be applied to AC signals because of the capacitor. Is there something like this type of circuit for DC signals?

    How Can I Convert a -0.1V to 1V Output Into a 0V to 4V Range for an ADC Input?

    Thanks for the reply guys! So basically I would take the DC output and shift it up a certain offset and then use another op amp to amplify it up? If this is true should I just be offsetting so the minimum possible output is shifted to 0v and then boost the maximum possible output after the...

    How Can I Convert a -0.1V to 1V Output Into a 0V to 4V Range for an ADC Input?

    Homework Statement I am given a thermal sensor that measures temperature at 10mv/degree C. We are to measure a range of -10 to 100 degrees C. Design a circuit that will connect the thermal sensor to a micro controller with an A/D Converter the must take an input from 0 to 4v...
