Topic summary

The discussion focuses on designing a high precision linear trans-impedance amplifier to amplify the output signal of an electrochemical sensor, specifically the TGS5042 CO gas detector. The sensor output voltage range is 0 to 5 V, and temperature compensation is required. Key considerations include the sensor type, output voltage polarity, and the possibility of offsetting the sensor shield from ground to simplify signal conditioning. Reference is made to the TGS5042 datasheet, which contains a schematic useful for design guidance, as well as an evaluation module schematic. Testing challenges are highlighted, including the need for a controlled CO source to validate the amplifier's response across varying gas concentrations and temperatures, with safety concerns noted due to CO toxicity. The user plans to detect ambient CO levels near burning coal or waste as a practical test environment.
