The intended application is for monitoring my capacitor bank's current waveform, the coil itself gives dI/dt, the change in current over time, and the integrator is just a couple of opamps, some features are just to play around with to see if its useful at all.
I just completed the integrator, although I have a few wires to hook up, it looks promising. In a few days I will have the time to completely wire the input/output connectors and test the integrator. The waveforms you see above are dI/dt, I'll try to get a captured waveform soon, and only calibration is left to finish.
Another bonus is that it would appear that the output is reduced in voltage, I may have to add a separate gain stage with a 1x, 10x, 100x selection switch just to get the desired amplitude...

On my PC, The drop is low enough that the time has to be on the lowest setting on the dial, and sometimes lower. I don't think a gain stage is necessary.

a lot of thease ciols are pure inductance and may have there own resonant frequencies. if you use a core and spread the windings apart and add a parallel noninductive resistor your response will be more flat. the core bandwidth will detrmin the frequency response. person probes are made this way I believe
hey aenomous, about the schematic diagram, how do u actually plan it? like im planning to use my coil just for instrumentation. perhaps having a frequency of 1kHz is enough.
so do u think my schematic diagram will be as complicated as yours? if i were to use 741 op amp model, could i just use 2 resistors r1,and r2, and a capacitor c1,
with the capacitor and r2 feeded back to the opamp and r1 is in series with the input?
hi guys. Is it possible if any of u could give me advice online? I have built my own rogowski coil using a 75 ohms co-axial cable about a meter long.
I have wind it up using a wire and turn in 282 times around the coil. I plan to use it for instrumentation purposes.
The voltage range that i have decided is = 1mV - 10V and operating current range to be = 1mA - 1A. the frequency range should be about = 1Hz - 1kHz
i have then make my own calculations, to get the integrator value, which is
Calculations E = H di/dt H= munaught N A N= 1762.5 turns/m Radius of the coil = 2 x 10-3 Cross sectional Area A = Pi r^2 = 1.26 x 10^-5 Mu naught = 4 pi x 10^-7 So H = 27.9 nVs/A ---------ïƒ coil sensitivity
Say Vout = 10 V, I = 1 A
then
Vout = IH/CR CR = 27.9/10 = 2.79 If R = 10000 ohms, then C = 2.79/10000 = 0.000279 F = 279 x 10^-6 Farad
does that makes any sense ?
also yesterday i tried my soundcard as an integrator to produce waveform using soundcard as a DSO. I used winscope and online oszilloscope but to no avail. I couldnt get it to work.
I have got pictures of my coil and everything. If any of u r interested i could email it to you, then maybe u could help me figure out what went wrong.
