Description
The MLX90314AB is a dedicated microcontroller which performs signal conditioning for sensors wired in bridge or differential configurations. Sensors that can be used include thermistors, strain gauges, load cells, pressure sensors, accelerometers, etc. The signal conditioning includes gain adjustment, offset control, high order temperature and linearity compensation. Compensation values are stored in EEPROM and are reprogrammable. Programming is accomplished by using a PC, with an interface circuit (level shifting and glue logic), and provided software.

FEATUREs and Benefits
   Microprocessor-controlled signal conditioning for bridge-type sensors
   Suited for low-cost sensors: reduction of non-linearity by programmable coefficients
   External or internal temperature sensor for compensating temperature errors
   Versatile output signal ranges: 4, 5, 10, or 11VDC; 4 to 20 mA loop
   Mass calibration easy with 2400 or 9600 baud UART
   Power supply from 6 to 35VDC

APPLICATIONs
   Pressure transducers
   Accelerometers
   Temperature sensor assemblies
   Linear position sensors
