ABSTRACT
In practical scenarios control engineer may encounter with a situation where he have to develop an interface circuit for the sensor. This sort of situation arose when a system specification requirement changes from user point of view, and control engineer has to alter the current system and develop a compatible interface circuit. In order to incorporate these requirements control engineer must able to tackle the problem and he should know about the difficulties and the limitations of such interface.
The purpose of this project is to teach us about the tools and techniques that are used to develop the necessary interface for the new system from scratch or to modify the existing interface circuit.

1 Introduction
The purpose of the project is to simulate the temperature sensor interfacing circuit employing the resistance temperature detector (RTD), we used the PT-100 sensor for this simulation. Circuit maker 2000 is used as a tool for this purpose.The basic principle of RTD is that as the temperature changes the resistance of the device changes, usually RTDs are positive temperature co-efficient. The design procedure consists of following essential steps
2 Design StepsDesign consists of the four major steps
RTD Buffer & Precision Power supply Interface IN-Amp Interface Linear Amplifier Interface
2.1 RTD Interface
The first step in the development of the project is to select the temperature range for the application we are designing for, here we have selected the temperature -100 to 500 The corresponding resistance from the datasheet is given as:
Temperature Resistance-100 oC. 60.26 Ohm 500 oC. 280.98 Ohm
Table 1 Temperature & Resistance Range
In the next step we have to design a buffer amplifier in the shown configuration to provide a necessary interface to the instrumentation amplifier, it should be noted that the high precision voltage source should be used to make the circuit work effectively, the output of this stage if fed to the IN-Amp stage, the configuration for the circuit is shown in the schematic given below:

Figure 1 RTD-Buffer Interface
here we have employed the single supply rail-to-rail op-amp AD 820, V1 is the high precision voltage source.
When the RTD value is maximum i.e. the 281-Ohm the voltage at the terminal A is 5.2811 V.
When the RTD value is minimum i.e. the 60 Ohm the voltage at the terminal A is 5.0621 V.

2.2 IN-AMP InterfaceIn this stage we have to select the IN-Amp and the corresponding gain of the In-Amp. As it is desired to have the CMRR of > 50 db, so we select the AD620 IN-Amp which is capable of providing the CMRR of 100 db at the gain of 10, data sheet attached, so we go for the gain of 10.From the data sheet we have the relation:
RG= 49.4K/(G-1)
By setting the gain of 10, we find the resistance RG to be 5.5K Ohm. The IN Amp is used in the configuration shown. When the input AD620 is cascaded with the previous circuit we obtain the following outputs.

Since we are required to develop the data acquisition system so these voltages levels should be calibrated to the compatible form we need to develop a linear amplifier for this purpose. The linear amplifier configuration is given as
Input OutputMinimum 0.6 V 0 VMaximum 2.8 V 10 V
Table 3 Desired Range of Linear Amplifier
By inserting the values in the following equation , and solving ,we obtain the value of M and B
Output= M*Input + B
We found that
M= 4.545B= -2.727
Since M=(1+ R f /( R G+R 1|| R 2 ));B=VR e f (R 2 ( R f /( R G+R 1|| R 2 ))/( R 1+ R 2)
By the above equations we found the following values of resistors

3 Cascading All StagesIn the end all of the above steps are combined and the different parts are cascaded to simulate the overall circuit. The resistances of linear amplifies are infractions, therefore we take the standard resistances by omitting the fractional part.The linear amplifier is coupled via 1K resistor.In the final simulation we have simulated the circuit and viewing the output of all the blocks on the single graph to understand what is going on in each block simultaneously. The schematic of the system is shown along with the simulation graphs.
