Humidity Sensor

circuit schematic

Introduction Interfacing humidity sensor can be difficult because of the sensor’s drive requirement and their wide dynamic range.  We can customize the circuit to obtain reasonable accuracy within the chosen range by carefully selecting the devices that comprise the analog front end. Here  we present a case study to design analog signal conditioner for [...]

Isolated Temperature Sensor

circuit schematic

In some temperature-sensing applications there are some problems caused by the placement of sensors on location where the potential is very different from that of the data-acquisition-system common. So the operating temperature sensor must be isolated from its data-acquisition system galvanically.  And the power’s source for the sensor was isolated. This circuit is designed to [...]

Current Monitor

circuit schematic

On the circuit diagram, R1 is used to senses current flow of a power supply. We could use JFET as a buffer because Id=Is, therefore the power supply current flow is accurately reflected by the output monitor. Here’s the circuit diagram: [Source: National Semiconductor Application Note]

LM1830 Single Chip Water Level Sensor Circuit: Basically A Conductive Liquid Level Sensor

circuit schematic

For any electrically conductive liquid level measurement, this single chip circuit is very compact and simple. This circuit is an ac excited fluid level sensor, which uses alternating current to provide biasing for the sensor probe to avoid electrolysis of the probes.  This ac excitation makes the sensing probe has longer lifetime. This circuit can [...]
