Impedanzkenngrößenschaltung für einen elektrochemischen Sensor

Eine Sensorschnittstellenschaltungsarchitektur eines elektrochemischen oder anderen Sensors kann eine beträchtliche DC-Offsetvorspannung einem elektrochemischen oder anderen Sensor getrennt oder unabhängig von dem Abliefern eines zeitveränderlichen AC-Erregungssignals abliefern, das dann mit höherer Auflösung bereitgestellt werden kann, was wiederum bessere Auflösung des gemessenen Antwortsignals erlauben kann, wodurch die Impedanzkenngröße des Sensorzustands bereitgestellt wird. Zum Beispiel kann ein zeitveränderliches Differential-AC-Erregungssignal für die Sensorzustandskenngröße getrennt und unabhängig von einem stabilen Differential-Vorspannungssignal (z.B. DC oder anderweitig) abgeliefert werden, wie etwa durch Verwendung von getrennten Digital-Analog-Wandlern (DAC), so dass Bereitstellen des stabileren Signals die Auflösung und Genauigkeit des zeitveränderlichen Signals nicht begrenzt, wie etwa indem der Dynamikumfang eines einzelnen DAC aufgebraucht wird.
