A practical experiment was carried out using an operational amplifier (Op-Amp) to connect a sensor with an LED.
- The circuit was first assembled on a breadboard, including wires, resistors, the LED, and the Op-Amp chip.
- Before powering, the setup was checked to ensure correct connections.
- Once connected to a laboratory power supply, the sensor produced a weak signal that was amplified by the Op-Amp, strong enough to activate the LED.
- The experiment demonstrated the difference between the unpowered state and the powered state, highlighting the Op-Amp’s role in amplifying weak signals to drive other components.
