Hello guys,
I am trying to connect a PV cell from a calculator to a TL074CN op-amp.
My goal is to emit light on the PV cell, and thus get some small value of current in the input pin and then amplify it so that I can get a range of voltages values 0-5V in the Vout pin by changing the value of RF.
I dont really have experience with PV cells nor op-amps, but after some reading I tried to implement the "Virtual ground" op-amp(See attached schematics) :
so to the Vin pin I connected the + probe of the PV cell
my questions are:
1) is my schematics o.k in order to obtain a range of 0-5V in the Vout pin?
2) what kind of PV cell is good enough to botain this goal?
any comments/advices will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
