New Product: ZMDI ZSSC3008

The ZSSC3008 signal conditioner IC features enhanced on-board diagnostics and second-order linearity correction, and is ideal for cost-effective resistive bridge sensor systems that require this type of correction for a wide range of sensors.
The ZSSC3008 is optimized for those applications with sensors that do not require temperature compensation because they have an intrinsically low temperature coefficient (TC). This includes ceramic pressure sensors, thin film pressure sensors with good TC performance, and oil-filled stainless steel or passively compensated sensors. The calibrated ZSSC3008 and a specific sensor are mated digitally: fast, precise, and without the cost overhead associated with trimming by external devices or laser. The ZSSC3008 offers a full complement of on-board diagnostics and protection features such as EEPROM signature, bridge connection checks, bridge input-short and open-bridge detection, power loss detection and output current limits for short-circuit protection.
