4. Introduction:-
■ Digital signal conditioning in process control means finding a way to
represent analog process information in digital format.Use of in control
system is particularly valuable number of other reasons, however;
■ A computer can control multivibrator process-control system.
■ Nonlinearities in sensor output can be linearized by the computer.
■ Complicated control equation can be solved quickly and modified as
needed.
■ Networking of control computers allow a large process-control complex
to operate in a fully integrated fashion.
5. Main functions of signal conditioning:-
Amplification Attenuation
Excitation Filtering
Signal
Conditioning
8. Explaination:-
Microcontrollers can’t read values unless it’s digital data. This is
because microcontrollers can only see “levels” of the voltage, which depends
on the resolution of the ADC and the system voltage.
ADCs follow a sequence when converting analog signals to digital.
They first sample the signal, then quantify it to determine the resolution of
the signal, and finally set binary values and send it to the system to read the
digital signal. Two important aspects of the ADC are its sampling rate and
resolution.
