I am trying to amplify a differential voltage (several tens of mV) and I'm focusing on a differential amplifier with opamps. The circuit is attached. Here, R1 = 2k and RF = 100k. In this circuit, instead of the IN+ reference resistor going to GND, I have it tied to VR = 0.5V. The equation turns out as: Vout = VR + RF/R1*(V2-V1). The reason this is done is so that I can shift the output by 0.5V so that when the differential voltage is zero, the output is 0.5V.
However, here is my problem. From tolerances in the preceding circuitry, V2 may become lower than V1 (this may at most be 50mV). I want to keep the output at 0.5V even if V2 < V1. What kind of circuitry is recommended to do such function?
