- How to Stay Out of Deep Water When Designing with Bridge SensorsGustavo Castro Scott HuntAnalog Dialogue Instrumentation amplifiers (in-amps) can condition the electrical signals generated by sensors, allowing them to be digitized, stored, or used to control processes. The signal is typically small, so the amplifier may need to be operated at high gain. In...Nov 22, 2016
- O CMRR, CMRR! Wherefore Art Thou CMRR?Analog Dialogue Question: Why is the effect of common-mode signals at the output larger than the CMRR specification? Answer: The concept of common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) is fundamental when working with differential input circuits, yet it is often misunderstood....Sep 20, 2016
