Description

ZSSC3016 is a sensor signal conditioner integrated circuit for high accuracy amplification and analog-to-digital conversion of a differential input signal. Designed for high resolution altimeter module applications, the ZSSC3016 can perform offset, span and 1st and 2nd order temperature compensation of the measured signal. Developed for correction of resistive bridge sensors, it can also provide a corrected temperature output measured with an internal sensor.

Features

• Flexible programming analog front-end concept; up to 16-bit scalable, charge-balancing two segment ADC
• Fully programmable gain amplifier accepting sensor signals from 14 to 72 (linear factor)
• Internal auto-compensated temperature sensor
• Digital compensation of individual sensor offset; 1st and 2nd order sensor gain.
• Intelligent power management unit
• Layout customized for die-die bonding with sensor
• Accuracy: ±0.10% FSO @ -40 to 85°C

Currently available in die only
