    Notes: Abstract This paper presents a CMOS interface for a thermocouple, includingreference-junction compensation. The interface contains a first-orderoscillator whose period is modulated by the signal from the thermocouple(VX) and two other signals generated internally. One is abase-emitter voltage (VBE) and the other is a PTAT voltage(VPTAT). Linear combinations of the periods corresponding tothese two voltages are made by a µC, to obtain a reference signal anda temperature-dependent signal. The internal signals are required to provideauto-calibration for offset and gain and to measure the interface internaltemperature. Dynamic Element Matching is applied to generate an accurate andreliable PTAT voltage. The inaccuracy in the base-emitter voltage iscalibrated using a vertical PNP substrate transistor with multi-emitterareas. The applied modulator used in the circuit has a second-orderfiltering which suppresses low-frequency (1/f) noise. This filteringproperty enables the use of a low-cost CMOS process for the implementationof the circuit. The interface is able to measure a voltage(VX) in the range of −27 mV to 100 mV, the measuredaccuracy of the system over a temperature range of −25°C to75°C is 550 ppm of VX ± 2µV. The inaccuracyin determining the reference-junction temperature is 0.6 K. The measuringtime is ≤50 ms.

    Notes: Abstract This paper presents a new universal transducer interface.This interface, which is read out by a microcontroller, servicesthe following sensor elements: capacitors, platinum resistors,thermistors, resistive bridges and potentiometers. The A/D conversionis based on a first-order oscillator. A combination of classicaland some new measurement techniques has been applied on a singlechip to obtain high accuracy, good long-term stability and areduction of the effects of interference and parasitic elements.The circuit has been fabricated in a 0.7 µm CMOSprocess. The main test results are: an accuracy of 10–15bits and a resolution up to 16 bits while the measurement timeis in the range 1–100ms. These results hold over the temperaturerange −20°C to 80°C. Calibrationof the electronic part is not required. The number of externalcomponents has been kept to a minimum.
