0.01 ohm current sensor with LM358 problem?

[kamarn]

Hi,

I am having problem wiith the attach circuit. It is simple non-inverting dc amplifier with gain=11. But with 5mv Vin I get some -ve (3-4)mv at the output. What is the problem? thanks

What is AGND and GND?

I think LM358 isn't Rail to Rail Op Amp so you have to use instead of single supply symmetrical power supply with negative voltage as GND or use RtR Op Amp.

It's impossible to get a negative output voltage from the circuit you showed. Either the circuit diagram is wrong or your measurement is wrong.

It looks the gain calculation is also not correct !
Both R1 and R2 are in series amounting to 110 K from output to the inverting input.

Yes, I think your inverting input should be connected to a point between R2 and R1. You have it grounded.

Hello,

I think also, you have no connection between AGND and GND. In this case your input has no reference to the circuit.

I agree with gonespa. The negative input must be connected to the point with R1 and R2.

I think that the OP doesn't care to get any replies because he has not posted a follow-up and it's been a month since his first post so maybe we can leave this thread fade away...
