Electronic Testing • multi-meter: check the circuit before connecting to the power supply. • function generator & oscilloscope: check whether the output of each component satisfies our expectation: a. Each OP Amp should function properly!(make sure the pins have right voltage.) b. Voltage Follower:should be exactly the same with the input. c. Low-pass Filter:should filter out the signals with frequency higher than 80 hz. d. Voltage difference amplifier:should amplify our signals with the designed gain factor.
