These days there a large number of sensors and analog circuits that are “controller friendly” meaning that their output signal is easily interfaced to the built-in Analog to Digital Convertors (ADCs) ...

The Intersil ISL2853x/63x series IAs are pretty cool devices. These are a series of instrumentation amplifiers based on the usual three-op-amp configuration. They are built on a low-voltage process, ...

In the first article about measurement systems we looked at sensors as a way to bring data into a measurement system. I explained that a sensor measures physical quantities which are turned into a ...

The XTR105, XTR112, and XTR114 from Burr-Brown are a family of two-wire, 4-20 mA current-loop transmitters with instrumentation-amplifier input stages. The front end is designed to be used with a ...

Editor’s note: Here’s an oldie but goodie. EDN editors regularly field requests for copies of articles that predate our online archive, but this Design Idea from our Feb 20, 1986, issue has generated ...

This 126-page guide helps engineers select, evaluate, and design the most appropriate in-amps for specific applications by covering a wide range of topics including... This 126-page guide helps ...

The AD8295 precision instrumentation-amplifier front end from Analog Devices uses 50% less board space than competing amplifier solutions for industrial process controls, precision data acquisition ...

The dual approach of digital and analog lock-in amplifier technologies has continued to advance the precise extraction of weak signals from noise-laden environments. These devices are indispensable in ...
