[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Technical Field> The present invention relates to a remote measuring device that collects measurement data using a sensor installed in a remote location, and is particularly applicable to a resistance value measuring device in a remote location where only AC measurement is allowed. It is suitable.

<Problem to be solved> For example, some types of humidity sensors are damaged or their characteristics change when DC power is applied, so only AC power is allowed. To measure a physical quantity at a remote location using such a sensor, normally two transmission lines 2 and 3 are connected to both ends of the sensor 1, and a power supply 4 is connected to the transmission line, as shown in FIG. A method is used in which the resistance value Rx of the sensor 1 is determined by applying an AC sine wave and measuring the electric wire io of the transmission line.

However, if the measurement point is in a remote location and the transmission line is long, there will be a capacitance Cx between the transmission lines, so calculating the resistance value Rx from a simple Ohm's law as in direct current measurement will result in an error. In particular, when the resistance value Rx of the sensor is large, the error becomes large even if the value of the capacitance Cx is the same.

Furthermore, although accurate measurements can be made using the power source synchronous detection method, it requires a stable, low-distortion sine wave power source, which has the drawback of increasing the size and complexity of the device.

The circuit of diode D 2 becomes conductive. When both switches S 1 and S 2 are off, the input voltage of the full-wave rectifier circuit 18 is determined by the terminal voltage of the Zener diode, as shown in figure f, and when switch S 1 or S 2 is on, voltage-current conversion is performed. The output of circuit 17 appears. At this time, the output current of the voltage-current conversion circuit 17 is supplied to the resistor R 0 regardless of the voltage drop in the forward direction of the diodes D 1 , D 2 , D 3 , and D 4 , and its waveform is as shown in figure g. , b The protruding portion at the initial stage of switching has been removed.
