In a previous article, we discussed the different types of load cells. A load cell is a transducer that converts a mechanical force into a measurable electrical signal. Different load cells are designed to convert different mechanical forces into electrical voltage. Load cells are typically classified by shape and form, with a unique configuration. Common types include canister load cells,…
STMicroelectronics expands its 5V op-amp line for high-accuracy signal conditioning
STMicroelectronics has added the TSV782 high-performance dual op-amp to its 5V family, with 30MHz gain bandwidth (GBW) and 50µV (typical) input offset voltage for high-speed, high-accuracy signal conditioning. With the ability to function with a supply as low as 2.0V, the TSV782 can operate from a deeply discharged battery and so extend the runtime of equipment such…
