Abstract

Example embodiments relate to sensor readout systems and sensor readout methods. One example sensor readout system includes a signal generator configured to generate a biasing signal. The sensor readout system also includes a first chopper configured to modulate the biasing signal using a chopping signal with a chopping frequency fto generate a modulated biasing signal. Additionally, the sensor readout system includes a Wheatstone bridge circuit that includes resistive branches. At least one of the resistive branches includes an impedance-based sensor. The Wheatstone bridge circuit is configured to receive the modulated biasing signal and to generate a sensing signal based on the modulated biasing signal. Further, the sensor readout system includes a second chopper configured to modulate the sensing signal using the chopping signal with the chopping frequency fto generate a modulated sensing signal.
