Our IC design team is developing a sensor based on quantum sensing.

My job is to design a signal conditioning circuit for that sensor and send the sensor data to cloud.

As a hardware design person I need to know the below parameters.

Please let me know am I missing anything?

  1. Sensor output type(Current or voltage and its min and max values)
  2. Output is AC or DC,(if AC it's frequency)
  3. Output Variation
  4. Sensor O/P impedance
  5. Sensor operating voltage
May I know your thoughts.
 

Hi,

the most important: a complete sensor datasheet.

It should answer all your questions above.

Hi,

There is no datasheet as of now.
The chip is in the design state.
What I heard from IC design team is the output is current.

Hi,

I doubt they design a sensor without a specificaton .. like trial and error basis.
But if they do: you could go the same way: Just build something and hope it works.

Unless you get a descent specification / documentation, one could say it is not a serious job you're assigned to do.
