Description
The MLX90308CAB is a dedicated microcontroller which performs signal conditioning for sensors wired in
bridge or differential configurations. Sensors that can be used include thermistors, strain gauges, load cells,
pressure sensors, accelerometers, etc. The signal conditioning includes gain adjustment, offset control, high
order temperature and linearity compensation. Compensation values are stored in EEPROM and are re-
programmable. Programming is accomplished by using a PC, with an interface circuit (level shifting and glue
logic), and provided software.

; 4 to 20 mA loop
Option
The application circuits can provide an
output of an absolute voltage, relative
voltage, or current. The output can be
range limited with defined outputs when the
signal is beyond the programmed limits.
Other features include alarm outputs and
level steering. The robust electrical design
allows the MLX90308CAB to be used
where most signal conditioning and sensor
interface circuits cannot be used. Voltage
regulation control is provided for absolute
voltage and current modes (external FET
required).
The standard package is a plastic SO16W.
The device is static-sensitive and requires
ESD precautions.
