Abstract
A signal conversion circuit converts variations in resistance into an electrical signal. The conversion circuit comprises both a bridge circuit and a single operational amplifier with a capacitor between them to store voltage samples produced by an unbalancing of the bridge. The bridge circuit has a detector element such as a strain gauge for providing a resistance variation. A capacitor is connected through switches to both the bridge circuit and signal operational amplifier. The switches operate in a sequence whereby the operational amplifier is disconnected from the capacitor during the storage of the sample and the bridge is disconnected from the capacitor during intervals while the charged capacitor is connected to the amplifer.
