Hi,
first of all I'm really sorry for a bad diagram, plus I'm fairly new for analog designs.
I'm trying to design a instrumentation circuit for a color sensor. In order get the maximum accuracy out of ADC i had to use two stage amplification. I somehow managed to get this circuit, but I'm kind of confused in the filter part I'm using to get rid of the high frequency noises from op amps.
So my concerns are,
After the first stage I'm using a low pass filter, can this resistance from the filter be used as the input impedance for the second stage. do i read the RIN there??
Besides, should i include the Co to the CF2 calculation to compensate the stability of second stage op-amp??
Or is it possible to just have one filter for both op-amps..
Schematic Attached to the thread!
I would really appreciate some help or any good reference.
Thank you.
