Sensor driving device
Abstract:
A sensor driving device drives a sensor circuit formed of a Wheatstone bridge, which is connected between a main power supply for supplying a power supply potential and a reference power supply for supplying a reference potential lower than the power supply potential and includes at least one gauge resistor varying a resistance value thereof with deformation caused by external force. The sensor driving device includes a first resistor, which is connected in series with the sensor circuit between the main power supply and the sensor circuit, and a second resistor, which is connected between the sensor circuit and the reference power supply. The sensor driving device further includes a temperature output circuit connected in parallel to the sensor circuit relative to the main power supply. The temperature output circuit includes two output terminals, which output a potential difference smaller than a potential difference between one end of a main power supply side and one end of a reference power supply side.
