MAGNETIC LEVITATION Project & CRITICAL TEMPERATURE KIT
ELECTRONICS CIRCUIT SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS
The following figure is a schematic diagram for the Electronics Board.
Operation of the Electronics Board circuitry may be of interest to some students who use the Levitation/Critical Temperature kit. Individual circuit functions may be understood and analyzed from the following explanations. Operational amplifiers (op amps) are characterized by two nearly ideal properties, which lead to a wide variety of applications. These properties are 1) high impedance between the non-inverting and inverting inputs and 2) high open loop gain. Usually, both of these may be assumed to be infinite. Infinite impedance means no current flows between inputs, and infinite gain means that negative feedback will drive input voltage difference to zero. A variety of circuits can be analyzed using these two properties and Ohm's law.
