KIT ATION EVALU E L B A IL AVA
0.1%-Accurate Signal Conditioner for Piezoresistive Sensor Compensation
________________General Description
The MAX1457 is a highly integrated analog-sensor signal processor optimized for piezoresistive sensor calibration and compensation. It includes a programmable current source for sensor excitation, a 3-bit programmable-gain amplifier (PGA), a 12-bit ADC, five 16-bit DACs, and an uncommitted op amp. Achieving a total error factor within 0.1% of the sensor’s repeatability errors, the MAX1457 compensates offset, full-span output (FSO), offset TC, FSO TC, and full-span output nonlinearity of silicon piezoresistive sensors.
