SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated
Device Technology, Inc. (IDT), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723), has launched the
ZSSC3230, a new energy efficient and highly precise 18-bit sensor
signal conditioner (SSC) for capacitive sensor applications. Its
combination of best-in-class signal conditioning, low power
consumption and small size makes it ideal for use with humidity,
pressure, level and other smart capacitive sensor modules that are
included in a variety of consumer, medical and industrial
applications, such as HVAC systems, weather stations, smart meters
and automated smart building systems.
The ZSSC3230 has a high analog-to-digital conversion (ADC)
resolution – up to 18-bit – enabling it to achieve best-in-class
accuracy, a critical requirement for the latest generations of
sensor-based devices that are increasingly smart and connected to
the Internet of Things (IoT).
Complementing the ZSSC3230 SSC's accuracy is its low average
power consumption. Requiring as little as 1.3µA at one sample per
second, it is ideal for battery-powered applications, such as smart
meters and other IoT-connected devices, that are deployed where
electrical power is unavailable. Its low power requirements help
maximize the battery life of these devices, extending the time
between battery replacements and lowering maintenance costs.
Another chief advantage of the ZSSC3230 is the ease with which
its capacitive input span and offset can be configured. This
flexibility allows the ZSSC3230 to support a broad range of sensors
with different characteristics.
"Our new ZSSC3230 sensor signal conditioner combines exceptional
accuracy, low power and small size, giving product designers an
ideal solution for a new generation of intelligent, sensor-based
devices for home automation, smart building and smart city
applications," said Uwe Guenther,
general manager of IDT's industrial group.
