Assumptions that support the ratiometric-accuracy specification include:
•
• Excitation voltages less than 500 mV and excitation currents less than 500
µA are reversed during the excitation phase of the measurement.
• Effects due to the following are not included in the specification:
o Bridge-resistor errors
o Sensor noise
o Measurement noise
The ratiometric-accuracy specification is applied to a three-wire half-bridge
measurement that uses the BrHalf() instruction as follows:

The ratiometric-accuracy specification is applied to a four-wire full-bridge
measurement that uses the BrFull() instruction as follows:
TherelationshipdefiningtheBrFull()instructionisX=1000*V1/Vx,
whereV1isthevoltagemeasurementandVxistheexcitationvoltage.

In the case of the Resistance() instruction, sensor resistance is determined from
Vs/Ix, where excitation current Ix is measured across a 1000 , ±0.005% @ 25
˚C, 2 ppm/˚C TCR internal resistor.
