Lock-In-Amplifier Prototype Demo
zhlédnutí 3,1KPřed 11 lety
This is a lock-in amplifier circuit I designed and prototyped for a school project for essentially a photodetector semiconductor chip. Of course you can just buy an off-the-shelf lock-in amplifier for thousands of dollars; or if you don't need to run your circuit at a very high frequency, you can make a lock-in-amplifier yourself for less than 50 bucks, like the one in this video. So here it is...

    @MrChris2016 Před 2 lety

    When I first started working at a Data Center for one of the big tech companies, the people in the office who had been there awhile would espouse how "this place is a prison." Being new I thought it was strange and told myself, no way this place is prison, right? I had a one hour commute to work and part of the route wasn't the safest. There had been frequent accidents at a particular intersection along my route. Not two weeks after an accident had happened, I was coming up to the intersection and noticed all the police. I thought oh, no, this is bad...usually when accidents happen there, the police still wave people thru, so they can get to work, but not this morning. They were telling people to turn around and take a 40min detour. It was a horrendous accident at dusk and a 35-year old woman had passed- around 4:30am. When the officer told me to turn around, I almost just went back home because I didn't want to take the detour and was in pure shock. I had already planned to take time off to study for some certifications the following week, but I never went back and sent in my notice. I ended up taking some mushrooms and had these insights that verberated thru my body as to how the place was designed like a prison, and how it actually made me feel to work there. People usually say don't quit a good job until you have another lined up, but even though my mind could have went back, I could not force my body to return...

    very nice demo, few week ago i was build lock in amplifier with one op amp and 1 analog switch, but can exctract -30 to -40 dB. Since ad630 can extract up to -100dB signal. could you share yout schematic ? it would be very usefull for me, thank you arisaffandysunuh@gmail.com thank you

  • @manojitr5292
    @manojitr5292 Před 10 lety

    One doubt...What demodulator did you use?? AD630 Is it posible to use MC1496 as demod for the lockin??

    • @iristhevirus
      @iristhevirus Před 10 lety

      I used AD630, and the only reason for that is because the prototyping price and time budget, and I happened to have a number of AD630 laying around so I was able to start the prototyping right away. From glancing at MC1496 datasheet briefly, I believe it will work as well.. I did notice some differences on MC1496, such as higher input bias current, higher common mode rejection, etc. So it really depends on the requirement for your applications.. Good luck!

  • @iristhevirus
    @iristhevirus Před 11 lety

    And 2) is just to build a voltage driven current source (time to use your EE skills on transistors). I only need to drive a (inexpensive) laser diode for my project, so no need for complicated current driver for my laser. So I built a voltage driven current source on my board to drive the laser. And I used the same modulated voltage as one of the input for the demodulator at the output. Hope it helps, and good luck!

  • @iristhevirus
    @iristhevirus Před 11 lety

    You need a modulated current source to drive your laser. There are 2 ways: 1) If you are at development stage of your project that nothing is set in stone yet, I suggest to buy bench top laser drivers/current supply from the store. Then what you are looking for on one of those is to have either modulation settings for adjustable frequencies to modulate your laser current, or to have an input for an outside trigger waveform. And for the triggering waveform, just hook up a fcn generator.

    Hey, I am trying to build a modulator for my laser. I have a DC power supply, an amplifier for my laser, an oscilloscope and a lock in amplifier. I am doing my best to understand the workings of the lock in but am having so much trouble. Any input on what to do would be very helpful. Feel free to email me. greenhillchristian@yahoo.com
