The 5B38 is a signal isolator produced by Analog Devices, USA. It can receive input signals from full-bridge and half-bridge strain gauges, amplify and filter them, and then output them as a voltage between -5V and +5V. The signal isolator's bandwidth is 10 kHz, which is ideal for measuring signals that vary rapidly with time.
The 5B38 series are isolated, wide‑bandwidth signal‑conditioning modules that amplify and filter signals from full‑bridge and half‑bridge strain‑gage transducers. They feature 1500 V rms continuous isolation, a protected precision output of –5 V to +5 V, and can withstand 240 V rms at the input terminals.
Modules are compact (2.275" × 2.375" × 0.595"), hot‑swappable, and available in full‑bridge and half‑bridge versions. The handbook includes functional block diagrams, pin‑out descriptions, mechanical dimensions, environmental limits, and compliance information for hazardous locations.
