It is amazing how I have a shit ton of various parts including op amps but it looks like every single project I am contemplating building calls for something different that I don't have. But this time I need an instrumentation amp to amplify a strain gauge signal and I don't have the recommended (and ubiquitous?) AD620 or similar but I do have some LT1006. But it is a 'precision amp' but not an instrumentation amp. It is advertised as
>Battery-Powered Precision Instrumentation
Strain Gauge Signal Conditioners
What is the difference between a signal conditioner and signal amplifier? Also here is an example from the datasheet of an instrumentation amp based on 1006 with some external parts. Does that mean they need to be precision resistors, that would typically be integrated into a true instrumentation amp with a 3-amp design? Do I even need to care if I don't need high accuracy?
