This is a circuit that transmits temperature data over an IR link and it allows the isolation of temperature sensor. It is a good solution of obtaining temperature readings from points at potentials a few tens of volts from ground by linking a temperature probe only by an IR connection to the readout point. This [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

You can use a humidity sensor to give an alert of boat leakage, or when your books start being flooded by heavy rain attack on your broken roof, or anything you can imagine. A simple humidity sensor (a humidity probe) can be constructed using two copper wires placed as close as possible to each other, [...]

Current loop interface has been widely used in industrial environment because it’s robustness. Noise resistance and fail detection capability made it suitable for long distant transmission in harsh environment. This circuit provide current loop transmitter for temperature sensor. Here is the circuit’s schematic diagram: The temperature measurement is done by LM35 temperature sensor [...]

The signal can be converted by piezoelectric films in many ways such as thermal to electrical (temperature sensor), mechanical to electrical (microphone), and electrical to mechanical ( a loudspeaker). The circuit is signal conditioning amplifier for piezofilm sensor which use three op amps and has a high-input-impedance differential charge. Here is the circuit : [...]
