Signal conditioning:
To change the zero to occur when the sensor output is
0.2V. This can be done by simply subtracting 0.2 from
the sensor output, which is called a zero shift, or a bias
adjustment –
y = (x – 0.2) × 12.5

(2) Linearization
A sensor used in process
control usually does not
have a linear relationship
with the measured
variable.
A linearization circuit
would ideally be one that
conditioned the sensor
output so that a voltage
was produced which was
linear with the process
variable.

A filter that blocks frequencies both below a low limit and above
a high limit while passing frequencies between the limits.
The lower critical frequency, fL, defines the frequency below
which the ratio of output voltage to input voltage is down by at
least 3 dB, or 0.707. The higher critical frequency, fH, defines the
frequency above which the ratio of output voltage to input
voltage is down by at least 3 dB, or 0.707. The frequency range
between fL and fH is called the pass-band.

The ratio of the magnitude of
output voltage to input voltage
for this filter as a function of
frequency. This equation includes
the effects of loading by a
constant, r, which is the ratio of
the high pass filter resistance to
the low pass filter resistance, r =

To pick component values, we must have r = 0.01, so if we pick RL = 100kΩ, RH = rRL =
1kΩ.
The capacitor values are then found from above equations to be CH = 0.133 µF and CL
= 15.9 µF
