Dear electrical engineers,
Here a question from a serious electronics n00b =D.
I tried to build a system as shown in the image. I have a photodiode which gives me a clock signal in the range of 200 to 500mV. Frequency will be in the range of 100 to 1000 Hz.
I would like to amplify this signal in order to have a voltage between C and D in the range of 2 to 5V, hence my goal gain should be around 10.
I have an LT1006 amplifier, which should be fine for this purpose (Documentation HERE). I'm trying to use it as a Non-Inverting OpAmp.
Useless to say that my system does not work. Somehow I get a constant output of about 2V regardless of the diode status.
There must be some gross mistake somewhere, but I have no idea. Could someone tell me what did I do wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Mazzo
