Procedure for signal conditioning using op-amp:


1.Calculate the value for R1 using following relationships:
Desired:
When Rs = 0kΩ, Vo = 0V, Vcc = + 12V
Rs = 10kΩ, Vo = 5.54V

Use single slope intercept formula to find the value of R1.


2. Connect the circuit as shown in Figure 3.
3. Vary the sensor resistance from 0o step wise up to 270o and note the output voltage.
Procedure for signal conditioning using voltage divider:
1. Calculate the value for R using following relationships:

Desired:
When Rs = 0kΩ, Vo = 0V, Vcc = 12V
Rs = 10kΩ, Vo = 5V, Vcc = 12V

Use the voltage divider circuit formula to find the output voltage as:

𝑅𝑠
𝑉o = ( ) 𝑉
𝑅𝑠+𝑅

Put, Rs = 12kΩ, Vo = 5V, Vcc = 12V to find the value of R.


2. Connect the circuit as shown in Figure 4.
3. Vary the sensor resistance from 0o step wise upto 270o and note the output voltage.

Conclusion:
Hence an Analog Signal Conditioning Circuit to produce 0-5V using op-amp and Voltage divider

circuit was designed. The graph of output voltage vs Angular Position using Voltage divider is not

linear whereas the graph of output voltage vs Angular Position using Op-Amp has linear graph.

So, implementing Op-Amp helps to obtain linear sensor output.
