5 Questions
Explain the purpose of bridge circuits mentioned in the text.
Bridge circuits are used for precise measurements of resistance, reactive components, impedances, temperature, pressure, strain, and other physical quantities, which are measured or sensed with transducers.
What is the principle of operation for a Bridge Circuit?
A Bridge Circuit operates on the principle of comparison, where a known (standard) value is adjusted until it is equal to the unknown value.
What are the two classifications of Bridge Circuits mentioned in the text?
The two classifications of Bridge Circuits mentioned in the text are DC Bridges and AC Bridges.
List two types of DC Bridge Circuits and their corresponding range of resistance.
The two types of DC Bridge Circuits mentioned are Wheatstone Bridge (100 to 1MΩ - Medium Range of Resistance) and Kelvin Double Bridge (1 to 100Ω – Low Range of Resistance).
Who originally developed the Wheatstone Bridge, and what was its purpose?
The Wheatstone bridge was originally developed by Charles Wheatstone to measure unknown resistance values and as a means of calibrating measurements.
