Model Answer
Solution
a- The maximum frequency of the clock is the one that almost produce counter overflow at the largest
interval of the signal. Hence

The 16 bit counter counts up to 2 = 65,536
65,536
The counter will overflow if the clock 𝑓𝑐𝑙𝑜𝑐𝑘 > 1 𝑚𝑠 = 65.5 𝑀𝐻𝑧

d- What are the advantages of Wheatstone full-bridge configuration over half-bridge circuit and
quarter-bridge circuits
Answer
a-
b-
i- It provides the highest sensitivity
ii- Noise is a less significant factor in the measurement
iii- Potential error due to temperature changes is eliminated because all four strain gages have the
same temperature coefficient and are located in close proximity.
