Choosing the right sensor signal conditioning IC

Designing and implementing sensor interface designs for nonlinear, temperature- dependent transducers presents some difficult challenges. The advent of dedicated and powerful Sensor Signal Conditioning (SSC) ICs has made the job easier, but choosing the right IC for a particular sensor and application is critical for making optimal performance and cost tradeoffs. In this article we will examine some of the most important features and functions to consider when choosing the best SSC for your application.
