General description#
This PCB is designed to supply external torque sensor Burster 8656 Torque Sensor and send the signals to the Analog LTC2311-16 card. The supply is taken from the voltage interface connector of an Analog LTC2311-16 board. The torque signal (+-10V) is reduced to a level of +-5V and low-pass filtered. The torque signal is connected to ADC1 channel of Analog LTC2311-16 and the remaining 3 Channels ADC2-ADC4 can still be used without limitations.

Layout#
The PCB is structured by functional areas as shown in Fig. 255 on the right.
Double Ethernet connector to the ADC adapter board
Measurement signal adaption to +-5V and low-pass filtering (708 Hz).
Supply voltage 24V and 5V from ADC Card with Samtec cable
MMSD-08-28-F-xx.xx-D-K-LDXConnector to the Torque Sensor D-Sub 15
Assembly and Connection#
A 3D-printable housing and an engraved aluminum cover designed for the uz_per_torque_box PCB. The assembly with all necessary parts, including a bill of materials (BOM), is shown below. The PCB can be used without the housing, but it is more rugged and much more beautiful with the housing.
