Sensor Conditioning Improves IoT Data

July 14, 2022
Renesas's sensor-conditioning front-end provides "cleaner" data for edge AI analysis.

Check out more Sensors Converge coverage.

Sensor data isn't always as clean as one would like for post analysis. Sensor-signal-conditioning (SCC) support like the ZSSC3281, which Renesas's Michael Georgi demonstrates in the video, delivers more useful information that can then be used by tools within an application, e.g., a machine-learning model (see figure).

The family includes resistive and capacitive SSCs. Renesas's resistive SSCs include a n ADC with 24-bit resolution. The capacitive SSCs support current consumption as low as 1.3 µA at 1 sample/s. These chips offer an energy-efficient solution that's optimized for battery-driven applications.
