Hi all,
I'm doing a project of reading a temperature with an IR sensor (Calex EL serie) with an output of 1-50mV for a 0-250ºC. This output must be amplified in order to use a ADC MCP3201 (12 bits) and a PIC 16F876a. After that the read values must be sending by an RF module (easy radio ERx00TRS02) to a PC.
Starting for the beginning: I need an instrumental amplifier with a gain=20 adjustable by digital POT by the PIC. I’m thinking about using the LTC1051 that have a low offset (5:mu: V) and chopper stability. Which circuit do you suggest to use for this amplifier? I’m thinking to use the one suggest in the Data-Sheet of the LTC1051 page 1 (High Performance Low Cost Instrumentation Amplifier).
If you have any suggestion please reply here or to my email:

Thanks in advance
