 		 #89063 - Re: Three Independent Lines.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Dear Kai,

Thanks for your reply,
Kai said:

I would use three inputs of an ADC: The first gets (signal x 1), the second gets (signal x 2) and the third gets (signal x 3). No switch needed. Then have a look (by software), which input signal is biggest but smaller than maximum input level.
If a manual range select is needed, than select one of these three inputs by the help of select button.


The method you suggested is an excellent one. The only problem I see is the size of the PCB will increase If I use three diffrent signal conditioners for three gains.

Kai, here I am talking about the same circuit that I had mailed you yesterday. I want to adjust the gain by varying the gain of the precision rectifer. By varying the resistor values. Using three diffrent precision recitifiers for three diffrent gains??? What do you say, what to do?

Thanks & Regards,
Prahlad Purohit
