convert them to a form suitable for
interfacing with other elements in the
process-control loop. This chapter only
concern about analog conversions.

Adjusting the level

Linearization
The purpose of linearization
is to provide an output that
varies linearly with some
variable even if the sensor
output does not.

Conversion
Convert one type of electrical
variation into another.
-Signal Transmission (Voltage
to current, Current to Voltage
converter)
-Digital Interface (ADC
requires 0-5V input)

Filtering &
Impedance
matching
-Filtering-Eliminate
unwanted signals in the
process-control loop
-Impedance matchingtransducer internal
impedance or line
impedance can cause error in
measurement of a dynamic
variable.

12
Concept of
Loading
Concern -loading of one circuit by another.
Thévenin's theorem for linear electrical
networks states that any combination of
voltage sources, current sources, and resistors
with two terminals is electrically equivalent to
a single voltage source V and a single
series resistor R.

FIGURE 2.3
If loading is ignored, serious errors can occur in expected outputs of circuits and gains of amplifiers.
Example: An amplifier outputs a
voltage that is 10 times the
voltage on its input terminal. It
has an input resistance of 10 kΩ.
A sensor outputs a voltage
proportional to temperature with
a transfer function of 20mV/ °C.
The sensor has an output
resistance of 5.0 kΩ. If the
temperature is 50 °C, find the
amplifier output.

LEAD COMPENSATION
-When bridge circuit may be
located at considerable
distance from the sensor
whose resistance changes
are to be measured.
-Problem many effect that
change the resistance.
-any changes in lead
resistance are introduced
equally into both arms of the
bridge circuit, thus causing
no effective change in bridge

FIGURE 2.12 (a) Bridge off-null voltage is clearly nonlinear for large-scale changes in resistance. (b) However, for small ranges of
resistance change, the off-null voltage is nearly linear.
Primary application of bridge circuits
-To Convert variations of resistance into
Variations of voltage
If the range of resistance variation is
Small and centered about the null value Then
then nonlinearity of voltage Resistance is
small.

from measurements, it is often
necessary to use circuits that block
certain frequencies or bands of
frequencies.
