1.

Offset and Span:  Generates the bridge output voltages. 

2.

Diode Vo: Generates the temperature sensor output voltages for the diode method. 

3.

Rt-: Generates the temperature sensor voltages for the Rt- method.

4.

Rt+: Generates the temperature sensor voltages for the Rt- method.

5.

PGA309 Error:  Allows you to read the PGA309 via the ADS1100 (The ADS1100 is the 
delta-sigma A/D converter that is a part of the PGA309EVM-xx).

6.

PGA309 RatioMetric Error:  Allows you to read and compute error for a ratiometric PGA309 
setup.

If the raw output of the sensor is not known, the “Generate_Sim_Values.xls” spreadsheet can be used to 
translate the specifications of your bridge sensor and temperature sensor to system voltage levels.   The 
spreadsheet contains five sections (Offset and Span, Diode Vo, Rt-, Rt+, PGA309 Error, Ratiometric Error): 

The temperature measurement methods, Diode, Rt-, and Rt+ are described in detail in the Sensor-
Emulator-EVM System Reference Guide (SBOA102) and the PGA309 Users Guide (SBOU024).
