You just had to get that off-topic dig in didn't you? You have become repulsive in my opinion for your inability to control yourself. Shame on you. -------- and yet you respond to a response that is OT with an OT response.... You should think twice about voting for Obonkers again.

I have a follow up question about this circuit, I'm really interested in being able to measure 50uV at the input, by adding gain and seeing something at the output.... I was thinking with a gain of 21, this would get me 1.05mV at the output and I could work with that. But, when I apply zero volts at the input I get 20mV at my output. In the datasheet it says the offset voltage is below 10uV... why am I seeing this 20mV? I tried just connecting both input pins to ground and still get 20mV at the output.... also, is there any particular range of resistors that I should use in my feedback? I mean, if I want a gain of 21, I need a ratio of 20 from R2/R1.... does it matter if I use 20k/1k or 200k/10k or 2k/100? much thanks

It's easier for him to post the netlist than it is to link a picture.

He did, admittedly lamely, attack me by name in response to a purely technical post by someone else. My response was to John S. Crazy old geezer. Has nothing to say about electronics any more. Must have run out of broken lampshades to repair. But since he's killfiled me, you can't accuse me of baiting the batty old hen. He can't see my posts. John
