Description

The Wheatstone bridge resistance measurement node gives a simple solution to field measurements of common low-value resistive sensors in wheatstone bridge configurations. It can measure values of a resistive sensor in quarter-bridge, half-bridge or full-bridge configurations, particularly load-cell and strain-gauge sensors. Basicly, this is a strain-gauge amplifier with a CANopen interface.

Load-cell

Functionality

  • Full-bridge: 2mV/V for 100%
