Abstract

This article presents a wide-range and high-precision analog front-end circuit for multi-parameter sensors that can handle sensor outputs of different types (R, C, V). A rail-to-rail baseline compensation method has been proposed, which further incorporates a fine offset elimination of 0.6 mV/step. Additionally, self-zeroing and correlated double-sampling techniques are integrated to reduce low-frequency noise and offset, prevent sensor signal saturation, and enhance the precision of the analog front-end circuit. By incorporating variable components in the sensor signal acquisition circuit and integrating them with the baseline compensation circuit, the applicability range of the sensor has been expanded (R: 7 Ω–1.7 MΩ, C: 50 fF–35 pF, V: 0.05–1.7 V). Test results show all interface circuits exhibit significant total conversion gains (C: 45 mV/fF, R: 14.5 mV/Ω, V: 144 V/V), achieving high precision. Meanwhile, a coefficient of determination (R2) greater than 0.998 indicates high conversion linearity of the circuit.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
