ZSC31050KIT

The ZSC31050KIT is an evaluation kit containing software and hardware needed for communication and calibration of ZSC31050 advanced differential sensor signal conditioner. The ZSC31050 is a CMOS integrated circuit for highly accurate amplification and sensor specific correction of bridge sensor and temperature sensor signals. A PC can communicate with the ZSC31050 via the communication board (SSC CB) through a USB connection. The sensor replacement board (SRB) provides a replacement for an actual sensor and can be used for the first step of calibration or a dry run calibration. On the SRB, the sensor replacement signal is controlled by a potentiometer. The software will run under Windows 98/ME/XP/NT/Vista/Windows 7 operation systems after installation of a USB driver. The main purpose of the SSC evaluation kit is communication between the PC and the ZSC31050.

• Digital compensation of sensor offset, sensitivity, temperature drift and non linearity
• Accommodates nearly all bridge sensor types
• Digital one shot calibration: quick and precise
• Selectable compensation temperature T1 source
• Adjustable output resolution (up to 15bits) versus sampling rate (up to 3.9KHz)
• Current consumption typically 2.5mA
• Selectable bridge excitation: ratiometric voltage, constant voltage or constant current
• Input channel for separate temperature sensor
• No external trimming components required
• PC controlled configuration and calibration via digital bus interface – simple, low cost
