Abstract

A device and method for measuring the internal impedance of an electronic sensor uses configurable gain stages to selectively apply different excitation signals to the sensor under test in order to ensure adequate signal-to-noise ratio to provide accurate measurement of the internal impedance over a broader range of internal impedances than the prior art.
