Class-Leading 16-bit Sensor Signal Conditioner
ZMDI is pleased to introduce a class-leading 16-bit sensor signal conditioner (SSC) IC for calibrating resistive sensor modules. The ZSSC3026 combines high-accuracy amplification, 16-bit precision analog-to-digital conversion and an 18-bit DSP for linearization and calibration functions. This high-resolution sensor interface application-specific standard product provides special features for battery-driven low-power devices, an ultra-low standby current and intelligent power-saving technology to ensure lowest overall current consumption. Designed initially for high resolution altimeter module applications, the ZSSC3026 is ideal for use in any device that requires high accuracy and low power consumption. “Energy-efficiency is what we do best. We enhanced the basic ZSSC30×6-family to provide our customers with the resolution and accuracy required for their next generation products,” stated Frank Schulze, Business Line Manager for Sensing and Automotive at ZMDI. “Unlike many available products today, the ZSSC3026 includes internal signal correction and allows customers to minimize engineering efforts and costs.” Well-suited for applications in mobile devices, the ZSSC3026 also supports high accuracy industrial and medical applications; e.g., ambient assisted living and industrial pressure sensors. Extended temperature range, 4kV ESD protection and an outstanding power supply rejection ratio (PSR) enable a wide range of products in harsh environments. To learn more about ZSSC3026, click here.
