RTD to Voltage Reference Design Using Instrumentation Amplifier and Current Reference

TIPD193

Design files

Overview

This reference design translates resistance temperature detectors (RTD) resistance to a voltage level convenient for an ADC input. A precision current reference provides excitation and an instrumentation amplifier scales the signal. The design also uses a three wire RTD configuration to minimize errors due to wiring resistance.

Features
  •  Converts RTD resistance to voltage
  •  0 to 5V output across temperature range
  •  Eliminates lead resistance error
  •  Adjustable set with discrete resistors
