Short-Form Datasheet
ZSSC4132
Automotive Resistive Sensor Signal Conditioner with LIN Interface
Description
Features
The ZSSC4132 is member of the Renesas’s family
of CMOS integrated circuits for highly accurate
amplification and sensor-specific correction of
differential bridge sensor signals. Featuring a
maximum analog pre-amplification in the range of
150 to 200, the ZSSC4132 is adjustable to nearly all
resistive bridges as well as voltage-source sensor
types.
Differential bridge sensor input and on-chip or
external temperature sensors, selectable for
conditioning of sensor input signal and/or
temperature output
Digital compensation of offset, gain, and higher
order nonlinearity as well as temperature
coefficients of measured bridge sensor input
signal
Operating temperature range -40°C to 150°C
Accuracy ±0.5% FS at -40°C to 150°C
Digital compensation of offset, sensitivity,
temperature drift, and nonlinearity is accomplished
by a 16-bit RISC microcontroller. Calibration
coefficients and configuration data are stored in the
ZSSC4132 non-volatile memory (NVM), which is
reliable in automotive applications.
NVM memory for configuration and calibration
data, and for configurable measurement and
conditioning functionality
LIN interface based on LIN Specification Package
2.2A
Measured values are provided via a LIN interface
according to the LIN Specification Package 2.2A.
The LIN interface enables transmission of sensor
data as well as transmission of supplementary data.
End-of-line calibration is also supported through this
output pin based on the LIN protocol. The
ZSSC4132 and the calibration equipment
Supports output of one or more sensor signals
and product identification via a single LIN
interface connection
Configurable for nearly all resistive bridge
sensors
One-pass end-of-line calibration algorithm
communicate digitally, so the noise sensitivity is
greatly reduced. Digital calibration helps keep
assembly costs low as no trimming by external
devices or lasers is needed.
minimizes production costs
No external trimming or components required
Supply voltage: 7V to 18V
Protection up to ± 40V (with external diode at
VBAT)
The ZSSC4132 is optimized for automotive
environments by overvoltage and reverse-polarity
protection circuitry, excellent electromagnetic
compatibility, and multiple diagnostic features.
Input span: 1 to 900 mV/V
Effective ADC resolution: 12 to 14 bit
Output resolution: defined by user LIN frame
specification
