Title: Load cell amplifier
Post by: kikie on December 31, 2012, 05:10:41 am

I was wondering if symproject is going to develop a , at least 12-bit, load cell amplifier with a, whether or not with a variable gain control (if that is really necessary) to which you can also connect a pressure sensor/transducer or something that meassure the pressure from an hydraulic system and converts this signal into an elektrical signal? Or a, at least 12-bit joystick with a load cell amplifier?

Hello.
I Will investigate it, because I am not familiar with this type of amplifier.

Thank you

Thank you.

What do you think of this: Click here (http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=270915)

Problem is, that I'm interested in one but I can't get a hold of Leo Bodnar and Derek speare wasn't really helpful when I asked him questions.

I bought several items from symprojects without any problems, so I want one, if symprojects had one, from symprojects.

Can I connect a pressure sensor to one of the analogue inputs of the JC32 Joystick Controller instead of a potmeter? Without using an amplifier.

the analog inputs of the JC32 controller expect a voltage range from 0V to 5V.

If the output signal of the pressure is within this range, it can be used with the JC32.
