D.C. Signal Conditioning System:


The block diagram of d.c. signal conditioning system is shown in the Fig


The resistance transducers are commonly used for the d.c. systems. The resistance transducers like strain gauge forms one or more arms of a wheatstone bridge circuit. A separate d.c. supply is required for the bridge. The bridge is balanced using potentiometer and can be calibrated for unbalanced conditions. This is the function of Cdlibration and zeroing network. Then there is d.c. amplifier which also reqUIres i..l separate d.c. supply.

The d.c. amplifier must have following characteristics:


  1. Balanced differential inputs.

  2. High common mode rejection ratio. (CMRR)

  3. Hlgh input impedance.

  4. Good thermal and long term stability. The d.c. system has following advantages:

  1. It is easy to calibrate at low frequencies.

  2. It is able to recover from an overload condition.

But the main disadvantage of d.c. system is that it suffers from the problems of drift.The low frequency spurious unwanted signals are available alongwith the required data signal. For overcoming this, low drift d.c. amplifiers are required.

The output of d.c. amplifier is given to a low pass filter. The function of low pass filter is to elliminate unwanted high frequency components or noise from the required data signzd. Thus the output of low pass filter is the required data signal. Thus the output of low pass filter is the required d.c. output from the d.c. signal conditioning system.



The applications of such system are in use with common resistance transducers such as potentiometers and resistance strain gauges.
