19.2.2 Current Source for Low Cost Traducer
An external transducer based on variable resistor can be connected to the current source. This ca be for instance:
●
●
A thermistor, or temperature-sensitive resistor, used as a temperature sensor
A CdS photoconductive cell, or luminosity-sensitivity resistor, used as a luminosity sensor.
Using the current source with this type of transducer eliminates the need for additional parts otherwise required in resistor
network or Wheatstone bridge.
19.2.3 Voltage Reference for External Devices
An external resistor used in conjunction with the current source can be used as voltage reference for external devices. Using
a resistor in serie with a lower tolerance than the current source accuracy (≤ 2%) is recommended. Table 19-2 gives an
example of voltage references using standard values of resistors.
