PWM out noise
Hi,
I am using P21 for 3.3V pwmout, with period 100us, duty 50us. Since I am feeding this signal to opamp (opa211) that controls current source, I need to reduce voltage of mbed 3.3V signal to 0.100V (100mV).
To lower voltage I am using voltage divider with 32k and 1k as seen in picture. The voltage after 32k resisotr is already pretty noisy (check picture). How can I reduce that noise?
Thanks for any suggestion

OK, I used short gnd probe on osciloscope to measure this. I found out that if I move gnd of power supply closer to osciloscope probe gnd, the noise reduce significantly... Is there even a chance to work with so small voltages (100mV) on breadboard - and make quality measurements? Are there more quality breadboards that solve this noise problem?
