Que.7 What is the remedy for following problem in signal conditioning?
“A high transient voltage at one input may damage not only the input circuit, but an also propagate to other equipment connected to that input.”
- Amplification
- Isolation
- Attenuation
- Filtering
✔ View Answer
Option 2: Isolation
Que.8 Which of the following signal conditioning is not necessary in thermocouple?
- Amplification
- excitation
- linearisation
- Filtering
✔ View Answer
Option 2: excitation
Explanation:Thermocouple is an active transducer means it produces it's own voltage. Therefore it does not require any excitation.
Que.9 _____ helps to provide precise measurements, which are essential for accurate data acquisition and machine-control.
- An amplifier
- A signal conditioner
- A filter
- An isolator
✔ View Answer
Option 2: A signal conditioner
Que.10 Some analog sensors can be directly connected to microcontroller without converting into digital output.
- True
- False
✔ View Answer
Option 1: True
Explanation:Some Microcontrollers have analog Input/Output built in therefore an analog sensor can be directly connected to such microcontrollers.
