Hello! I am trying to build a circuit that has 2 steps:
it first amplifies an AC voltage (up to ~5 kHz only) from a function generator (non-inverting amp)
2) the amplified AC signal then undergoes a DC shift (differential amp)
The problems:
- the final gain for the AC signal seems to be only 2.75, not 3.
- the output of the differential amp is behaving as the following equation: V_AC + 10 - V_DC.
For example, if V_AC = 1*sin(wt), then the output with V_DC = 0 would be 10 + 2.75*sin (wt)
If V_AC is 1*sin(wt), and we use V_DC = 10V, then the output = 2.75sin(wt)
Any suggestions as to why these behaviors are occurring?
Many thanks,
Aaron
