Hello,

   

         the output of TIA is 300 mv , i am feeding to op amp negative terminal , and Op Amp(LOW POWER) configuration is shown attached ,

   

but the problem , what ever be the input to Op amp i should get inverted of it, but as strange i got 4.97 v . which should not be the case, what is the reason for that , how to overcome that issue

   


 

   

Thanks

The Opamp is latched up because you have positive fdbk around it.

   

 

   

Eliminate the fdbk path from NI to Output of ther OpAmp, double click

   

it, set it to a follower. Run TIA output into NI input of follower. But TIA

   

is itself buffered, you should not need a OpAmp follower.

   

 

   

If you need to invert the TIA output then use a PGA as an inv amp.

   

 

   

Or reverse TIA input current.

   

 

   

Regards, Dana.

hello dana,

   

 Used  Inverting PGA , this having Maximum OFFSet, which is killing the real signal

   

Thanks

What is the input to the TIA ? Schematic if you have one.

 If you are facing Offset issue, try adding a DAC to compensate it.

The DAC brings its own set of offset and gain problems with it,

   

do an end to end error analysis to see how this substantively this

   

will not work.

   

 

   

A classic method of getting rid of offset is to use a S/H to capture the

   

offset, and subtract it out.

   

 

   

Another very effective method is correlated double sampling -
