hi all.
im a newbie so excuse any ignorant questions in advance.
Im 39 and doing a part time college degree and decided to do something with arduino uno for a project. I have little practical experience with electronics but have read a lot over the years. unfortunately my memory isn't the best so even when I understand something, I have forgotten it a couple of days later.
im looking for some guidance on what sort of op amp I should use to amplify the voltage output of a sphygmomanometer pressure sensor (MPS200N0040D-D). its a small traffic light system im doing with red lights being activated by the pressure sensors. from my research I have concluded that the sensor outputs a 0-25mv signal.im looking for about 5v for the input to the arduino. im not concerned with the value of the signal, I just want it to turn on a red light if any pressure is recorded. any advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks all
