Novel Signal Conditioning Circuits for Push-Pull Type Transducers
In this thesis, novel signal conditioning circuits suitable for push-pull type of
resistive and capacitive transducers are discussed and their performance analysed. With
suitable alterations, these circuits are transformed into direct resistance / capacitance to
digital converters. A relaxation oscillator based signal conditioning circuit suitable for
push-pull type of resistive transducers is initially presented. The duty cycle of the
oscillator output is directly related to the changes in the transducer resistances. Since the
average value of the output of the oscillator is linear with respect to the duty cycle, the
circuit provides a highly linear characteristic even for transducers having an inverse
relationship with the physical input.
