Some current comes in the Op-amp’s input through R4. But if the resistance across R2 is lower than 1 ohm, the voltage across it is also lower. Normally, the voltage across R2 is at some value. The electric current flows through R1, R2, and R3. See the circuit, the input section should be a voltage divider with a resistor network. Here is continuity tester circuit diagram with Buzzer and LED This is called the op-amp comparator.Īccording to the condition above, we want a probe that can check a resistance under 1 ohm to cause the output to be “high”. That difference voltage got increased to be sent to the output. So, we use it to compare a different voltage between the inverting and Non-inverting input. The 741 is good at detecting a tiny amount of voltage.

So, we will only look into how to use 741.
For now, we just want to create the circuit. If we will learn all of it now, it will cause this post to be too long. In this circuit below, we use a popular 741 IC as a high gain Op-amp. Some tools may damage the devices within the circuit we measure because it outputs current up to 150mA. Is it better than other continuity testers? The continuity tester range on an analog multimeter, it powers a 150mA of current. Even if we measure across the semiconductor junctions (P-N), it would not affect the circuit.It definitely does not hurt the circuit we are checking. There is only 200uA and 2mV coming from two testing probes.Other components connected to the point currently tested, that have a resistance over 1Ω will not affect the testing.Can work when the resistance between two probes is lower than 1Ω.We have tested it and found this circuit has the good properties we want.
