NO: 03 INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER

AIM:
To construct and test the CMRR (Common Mode Rejection Ratio) of a 3 op-amp
instrumentation amplifier using op-amp IC741.

APPARATUS REQUIRED:

S.NO COMPONENTS / EQUIPMENT RANGE QUANTITY

1. IC 741 03
1KΩ. 06
2. RESISTORS
22KΩ 01
3. DIGITAL TRAINER KIT --- 01
4. SIGNAL GENERATOR (0-3)MHz 02
5. CATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPE (0-30)MHz 01
6. CONNECTING WIRES --- FEW

PROCEDURE:
1. Select the entire resistor with same value of resistance R. Let RG be the gain varying
resistor with different values of resistance. For simplicity, let RG be a constant value.
2. Connect the circuit as shown in the circuit diagram.
3. Give the input V1 & V2 to the non-inverting terminals of first & second
Op-amp respectively.
4. By varying the value of RG, measure the output voltage for common mode and
differential mode operation. Since RG is selected as constant value, provide different
input value of V1 & V2.
5. Calculate the differential mode gain Ad and common mode gain Ac to calculate the

CMRR=20 log Ad
CMRR as Ac.
