Analog Devices (ADI) has launched a precision mid-bandwidth signal chain platform capable of connecting a wide range of sensors, helping developers design end systems that can accept the widest range of sensors and measurements as input, from Integrated Electronics Piezoelectric (IEPE) vibration and acceleration to temperature and pressure.

ADI announced on the 21st that it has launched a precision mid-bandwidth signal chain platform that improves system performance in signal bandwidths from DC (0Hz) to approximately 500kHz for industrial and instrumentation applications.

The new platform simplifies the design process by providing a complete signal chain equipped with custom solution options and development tools such as LTspice® simulation tools.

By utilizing this powerful signal chain designed for both time and frequency measurement precision, design engineers can design a final system capable of accommodating the widest range of sensors and measurements as input, from Integrated electronics piezo-electric (IEPE) vibration and acceleration to temperature and pressure.

Furthermore, this signal chain enables engineers to confidently design the systems they desire, including condition-based monitoring (CbM), large number of channels or distributed data acquisition systems (DAQ), position and motor control, and acoustic waves It supports the resolution of the most challenging precision measurement problems in fields such as detectors.

Looking at the key features of the precision intermediate bandwidth signal chain platform, it optimizes signal chain resolution and gain to provide the 16-bit and 24-bit accuracy required for both large and small amplitudes across the widest sensor bandwidth.

Furthermore, thanks to the flexibility to prioritize noise performance, signal bandwidth, and power consumption, the optimal layout and various circuit use cases can be reused through simple software updates.

In addition, by utilizing options for higher channel density, precision measurements can be extended to distributed or centralized large-scale channel number designs.
