Fig. 13-41 The output of this circuit is a current proportional to temperature, which can be used to drive a meter for a direct readout. Alternatively, a resistor or op amp can be used to get a voltage output. The circuit is pulsed at a low duty cycle to reduce power consumption. With the component shown, the duty cycle is about 0.2% with a one-second sample rate. This gives an average current drain of about 25μA, plus the output current. The circuit will operate with a supply of 8.0 to 12.0 V. A small 8. 4-V mercury battery can provide an operating life of about one year. R8 is used to trim the circuit, correct for Zener tolerance, temperature error in the sensor, and resistor tolerance. With the values shown, a 0- to 50-μA output is obtained for a +50 to + 100°F temperature change. Other ranges can be selected using the equations shown in the box on the circuit diagram. The current-source output allows long lines to be driven with no loss of accuracy. National Semiconductor Linear Applications Habdbook, 1991, p. 1229.

Fig, 13-20 This circuit combines two LTC1043 switched-capacitor building blocks with a capacitive-based humidity transducer (Parametrics #RHS) to provide full signal conditioning for a relative-humidity output. To calibrate, place the sensor in a known 5% relative-humidity environment, and adjust the 10-kΩ 5% RHtrim for a 0.05-V output. Next, place the sensor in a 90% relative-humidity environment and set the 500-Ω 90% RH trim for 900-mV output. Repeat this procedure until both points are fixed. Once calibrated, this circuit is accurate within 2%on the 5 to 90%alative-humidity range.Linear Technology Linear Applications Handbook, 1990.

Circuit Notes
This SCR pre-regulator keeps the filter capacitor Vc, in a variable output power supply, a few volts above the output voltage Vo. The benefits include: less heat dissipated by the pass transistor and therefore small heatsink, cooler operation and higher efficiency, especially at low output voltages.Q1, R1, R2, D1 and D2 form a constant current source for zener Z1, so that the contribution to the output current is always a few mA (2-3 mA).The Darlington pair Q2, Q3 keeps the SCR off. The voltage Vcdecreases until Vc= Vo=V at which point the Darlington pair fires the SCR, charging the filter capacitor to a higher voltage Vc1 in less than half the period of the input voltage. The component values, shown are for a 0-250-V, 3-A power supply. (View)
