If this is just a one-off or cost is no object, There are 2 and 3

0.05 Hz is an omega of 0.3, so 1 uF and 3 megs is the ballpark RC. Or
0.33 uF and 10M. Those are perfectly happy numbers to work around a
fet opamp. Sounds easy to me.

John, the noise will be 100 times higher with 10M/1k design plus the
popcorn
noise of the fet-opamp with 1/f corners and noise performance at least 10
times of the AD797 at 0.05Hz, where it has less than 3nV/sqrt Hz. Look
also
at the peak to peak noise diagramm from 0.1 to 10Hz, the AD797 has only
40nV.

The problem with the AD797 is that the current noise is 2pA/rtHz at 1kHz.
Using reasonable size, stable capacitors will mean that the impedance levels
are high so the current noise will probably dominate.

I did some 1/30Hz lowpass filters back in the early '70s using 1uF
polycarbonate caps (50ppm/deg C, _very_ good df/leakage as long
as you used the "sealed" versions, small, cheap) and LM308 super beta
opamps. Performance was excellent. I used a somewhat unusual topology
to get better noise, I'd have to look up what it was, it's been a while ;-)

I would suggest something like the AD8671 family rather than the AD797.
Voltage noise is higher, but the current noise is much lower at 0.3pA/rtHz.
Vp-p 0.1-10Hz is a bit higher (77nV p-p versus 50nV p-p), but that is
not what will dominate.

The suggestions to use a delta sigma ADC may be the answer, but the OP
needs to check the noise level is acceptable. For example, the AD7738
at its slowest rate with chopping enabled has a noise level of about
10uV p-p.

You watch too much US TV, which made a big brouhaha out of a little

I have never in my life been on welfare. About a year and half ago
I quit my payed job. Since I did that on my own initiative, I have no
rights to any welfare or social security. Well, not before I'm totally
broke of course ;) For the record; I'm not looking for a job either.

But I never been on strike either, nor have been a union member.
There was no need for that, working for the employers that I have
been. Still, the unions *here* do good work, they put some weight on
the other end of the scale. I'd think it depends on the employer.
In the Netherlands, when unions negotiate a salary raise in percentage,
practically all employers follow such negotiated result, including
the ones that did not participate in the negotiations.

Plywood is the good stuff.

There's still a difference between plywood and multiplex. Multiplex, often
called plywood in Europe, is the really good stuff, while plywood in the
US refers to the stuff that they make houses from, which is really crappy.

--Daniel

The term "plywood" is non-specific as to quality. The sheathing grade
is indeed crappy, but there are many other grades:

http://www.tpub.com/content/construction/14043/css/14043_76.htm

TNX, Speff. tpub is a good site. Just so happens that I'll be
needing plywood soon so that link was timely.
Most of the so-called "oak" plywood means only the two outside layers
are oak- the interior layers could be anything and usually are...hehe.
It serves it's purpose. Wood is pretty expensive. I'd rather spray
concrete... rebar / steel is also damned expensive these days.

Then there is the question of letting Turkey into Europe where the real
opinion expressed in private, behind sealed doors is "No fucking way are we
having the Turks leech our social security to death"* - yet In Public it's
all grace and tolerance!

It's called "The Firehouse Effect" - because it was first observed amongst
firefighters: A close-knitted group of people moving in their own
environment evolve peculiar ideas that are only shared amongst themselves -
like the European "elite" today!

Anyone, who eats in a factory cafeteria og go to a Bodega and listens to the
talk might easily get the idea that herr Schickelgruber never really left
the building. But all the silly politicians see are the calm waters, because
they never go such places, instead they talk to the people in the VIP
lounges in the Airport, which are all affluent, educated people like
themselves with the same opinions!

I predict that there will be a very rude awakening for the "European Elite"
within this decade - as there was in the US.

Kind of like liberals; spoiled children run amuck. What they really want is
the utter destruction of everything that doesn't fit into their narrow
viewpoint of who's OK in their book,
Dubbya, as his father's son, really wanted to stick it to Saddam
Hussein, and has exploited his high position to waste a large number
of American lives (and a much larger number of Iraki lives) and a
great deal of money to satisfy this childish ambition. It hasn't done
a thing to improve U.S. security - in fact, by encouraging disgruntled
Arabs to sign on with Al Qaeda, it has probably increased the risk of
second 11/7.

and that's you, Frank, and it's
