Overview
Description
The ZSC31015 (RBicdLite™) is a CMOS integrated circuit for highly accurate amplification and sensor-specific correction of bridge sensor signals. Digital compensation of sensor offset, sensitivity, temperature drift and non-linearity is accomplished via an internal digital signal processor running a correction algorithm with calibration coefficients stored in a non-volatile EEPROM. The ZSC31015 is adjustable to nearly all piezoresistive bridge sensors. Measured and corrected bridge values are provided at the SIG™ 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 PC-controlled calibration procedure to program a set of calibration coefficients into an on-chip EEPROM. The calibrated ZSC31015 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 ZSC31015 particularly well suited for automotive applications.
Features
- Digital compensation of sensor offset, sensitivity, temperature drift, and nonlinearity
- Programmable analog gain and digital gain; accommodates bridges with spans <1mV/V and high offset
- Many diagnostic features on chip (e.g., EEPROM signature, bridge connection checks, bridge short detection, power loss detection)
- Independently programmable high and low clipping levels
- 24-bit customer ID field for module traceability
- Digital calibration and configuration via one-wire interface quick and precise
- Internal temperature compensation reference (no external components)
- Option for external temperature compensation with addition of single diode
- Output options: rail-to-rail ratiometric analog voltage (12-bit resolution), absolute analog voltage, digital one-wire-interface
- Supply voltage 2.7V to 5.5V, with external JFET, 5.5V to 30V
- Fast power-up to data output response, output available 5ms after power up
- Current consumption depends on the programmed sample rate: 1mA down to 250µA (typical)

IDT Sensor Signal Conditioner (SSC) Evaluation Kit Overview
A brief introduction and overview of IDT's (acquire by Renesas) sensor signal conditioner evaluation kits. Evaluation kits generally consist of three parts: a communication interface board, a device board, and a sensor simulator board - all connected together. A sophisticated software GUI accompanies the kit, enabling an engineer to learn how to use the part rapidly, do quick prototyping, and practice calibrations.
