Signal conditioner chips are data acquisition devices that refine sensor outputs so that they can be read by computer boards or other IC devices. A signal conditioner chip converts one type of electrical signal, which is difficult to be read by conventional instrumentation into a more easily readable format. There are many types of signal conditioning circuits. Examples include an AC signal conditioning circuit, RTD signal conditioning circuit, and load cell signal conditioner circuits. An AC conditioning circuit removes the glitches from the signal to make it more refined. An RTD signal conditioning circuit is a resistance temperature detection signal conditioning circuit. A RTD signal conditioning circuit is more stable, reproducible, and has nearly linear resistance versus temperature characteristics. Load cell signal conditioner circuits work on a stand-alone bench top phenomenon. A load cell is a transducer, which converts force into a measurable electrical output. Although there are many varieties of load cells, strain gage based load cells are the most commonly used type. Other signal conditioner chips are commonly available.
