Circuits such as given Figure can also be used to provide some degree of linearization. To see this, consider a sensor whose output voltage varies nonlinearly with input pressure by the equation
V(p) = 0.035 p2
This response is shown in given Figure. Now, assume the sensor voltage is provided as input to the circuit in Figure. Determine the output voltage over the pressure range, and plot versus p. You will see that the resulting voltage is more nearly linear.
