PresentationThe ETH-401 is a dedicated bridge amplifier for BIOSEB transducers that provides four channels of excitation power, gain, and noise filtration. It features very low system noise and intrinsic offset, making it suitable for use with high-resolution data acquisition systems. The ETH-401 is designed to interface low-bandwidth bridge transducers commonly used for force, blood pressure and displacement measurements.
Operating principleGain is set on the ETH-401 via a programming resistor mounted in the DIN-8 connector, which definitively sets channel gain. BIOSEB transducers configure the ETH-401 to their optimal gain; most non-BIOSEB bridge-style transducers can also be adapted to work with the unit. The device's inherently low offset, combined with low-offset bridge transducers and high-resolution acquisition hardware, reduces the need for offset adjustments. The ETH-401 is housed in a low-profile aluminum enclosure for improved durability and noise immunity. Multiple units can be stacked to save bench space.
