Homework Statement
A load cell converts weight to voltage. It's known that the transmission of a certain measurement system is 5 mV/kgf
In a computerized control system, it is necessary to translate the analog signal, which the transducer sends off, to a digital signal through an A/D converter.
In a certain weight system, it is necessarily to measure weight in the range of 0-200 kgf, whereas the needed accuracy of the measurement is 0.5 kgf
The A/D converter which is in the conversion system, is supplied by a 5V DC (Direct Current) voltage.
1) Pick the appropriate A/D converter for this measurement system (what's the required "data bits"?)
The Attempt at a Solution
What bothers me is that I got n = 10 and he got n = 11. What gives?
