Abstract :
This paper presents a new topology for current-mode Wheatstone bridge (CMWB) that utilizes an operational floating current conveyor (OFCC) as a basic building block. The proposed CMWB has been analyzed, simulated, implemented and experimentally tested. The experimental results verify that the proposed CMWB out performs existing CMWBs in terms of accuracy
