DIGITAL ASSIGNMENT-1
COURSE: SENSORS & SIGNAL CONDITIONING [EEE4021]
Max.Marks:10________________________________________________ Date: 01-08-2019____

1. Explain the methods to correct the effects of interfering and modifying inputs in the
measurement system with suitable examples and diagrams.
2. Derive the output voltage expressions for Quarter bridge, Half bridge and Full bridge
strain gauge measuring circuits and compare them with suitable examples.
3. A single strain gauge having resistance of 120 Ω is mounted on a steel cantilever beam at
a distance of 0.15 m from the free end. An unknown force F applied at the free end
produces a deflection of 12.7 mm of the free end. The change in gauge resistance is
found to be 0.152 Ω. The beam is 0.25 m long with a width of 20mm and a depth of 3
mm. The Young’s modulus for steel is 200 GN/m2. Calculate the gauge factor

4. Explain any one thermistor linearization scheme with their design and implementation
aspects. (Refer research papers)
5. Describe any two real time applications of strain gauge and RTD with neat diagrams and
write the significance of each sensor in detail with respect to the application.
