The RBicdLiteTM is adjustable to nearly all piezo-resistive bridge sensors. Measured and corrected bridge values are provided at the SIGTM pin, which can be configured as an analog voltage output or as a one-wire serial digital output. The digital one-wire interface can be used for a simple PCcontrolled calibration procedure to program a set of calibration coefficients into an on-chip EEPROM. The calibrated RBicdLiteTM and a specific sensor are mated digitally: fast, precise, and without the cost overhead associated with trimming by external devices or laser. Integrated diagnostics functions make the RBicdLiteTM particularly well suited for automotive applications. The RBicdLiteTM Development Kit is available includes the Development Board, SOP8 samples, software, and documentation. |
