PT100 amplifier board - redaings seems to be 30 degrees below

@tony449777 Can you check the values of the resistors as mentioned by DC42 above?

tony449777

R1 200.2
R2 200.2/3

Phaedrux

@tony449777 They appear to be exactly half of what they should be...

tony449777

@phaedrux I wonder how that could happen? I believe I got this daughterboard from Filastruder. It was purchased a while ago, but never used until this build.

@tony449777 the multimeter may give the wrong (lower) resistance readings, depending on what voltage it uses to measure resistance. If it was previously working then the resistors should be OK.

tony449777

@dc42 I’m using a Fluke. I have 3 others. I’ll try them all. However, how would we ever be able to come up with a reference for resistors if all multimeters give us such a diverse readings?

tony449777

@dc42 I can’t attach a picture, it will not let me however I can tell you R1 is marked”102” while R2,R3,R4 are all marked “201”

tony449777

On my precision bench meter both resistors measure R1-199.50 and R2-199.52

tony449777

I also have 3 PT100 cartridges in the same room measuring within 1° of each other. By that I mean looking at a PT 100s resistance table and measuring each one’s resistance, according to the table they are within 1° of each other.

Also curious, if the channel 1 on the daughter board is “spi.cs1”
And you have one daughter board with the two ports, then is the second port for the same card “spi.cs2”?

Why can't you attach a picture?

Do both channels give the wrong reading when you connect the 100 ohm resistor to each in turn?

Yes.

tony449777

@dc42 yes

@dc42 I’m using the phone application. Every time I try to attach a picture it just says undefined.

@tony449777 it's easier from a PC, you can just drag and drop a .jpg file into your post.

@dc42 Update. Switched out the daughter board for another one I purchased from filastruder and it works fine. It must be the board.

How long is a while ago?

@dc42 my 2nd channel died :I( i will be replaceing the chip, on the way want to check other parts. there are 2 pairs of capacitors - c1/c2 + c5/c6 what its default capacity should be?

also there is small black SMD element in between C1 and R1. what is it? what are the parameters?

many thanks!

@c310 the schematic for the board is here:

I assume you are refering to the inductor L1:

two screen shots depending on the version of the PT100 db you have.

it is an inductor such as LB2012T101K
