Question: You are planning to use a LC501-200 load cell sensor to measure the weight of a liquid container during a manufacturing process. This load cell

  1. You are planning to use a LC501-200 load cell sensor to measure the weight of a liquid container during a manufacturing process. This load cell is based on a strain gauge and wheatstone bridge circuit. This load cell is rated to a maximum of 200 lbs. The sensor has a rated output of 3 mV/V which describes the maximum electrical output at the maximum load condition. You plan to use a 10V excitation for the sensor which will produce 30 mV at the full 200 lbs.
    1. Design an op amp circuit to scale the output signal from 0 to 5 volts across the full 0 to 200 lb range of the sensor.
    2. Specify the components for an analog to digital conversion system that will provide an ADC resolution of at least 0.02 lbs.
