+++ title = "Signal Conditioner" author = ["Thomas Dehaeze"] draft = false +++ Tags : [Force Sensors]({{< relref "force_sensors" >}}) Most sensors needs some signal conditioner electronics before digitize the signal. Few examples are: - Piezoelectric force sensors - Geophone - Thermocouple, ... The signal conditioning electronics can have different functions: - Amplification - Isolation - Filtering - Excitation - Linearization ## Charge Amplifier {#charge-amplifier} | Manufacturers | Links | |---------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | PCB | [link](https://www.pcb.com/sensors-for-test-measurement/electronics/line-powered-multi-channel-signal-conditioners) | ## Voltage Amplifier {#voltage-amplifier} | Manufacturers | Links | |---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------| | Femto | [link](https://www.femto.de/en/products/voltage-amplifiers.html) | ## Current Amplifier {#current-amplifier} | Manufacturers | Links | |---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------| | Femto | [link](https://www.femto.de/en/products/current-amplifiers.html) | <./biblio/references.bib> ## Backlinks {#backlinks} - [Position Sensors]({{< relref "position_sensors" >}})
