    It is basically connected to the pads A and B (SG_A1 and SG_A2, SG_B1 and SG_B2 are shorted). For the gain and temperature measurement, external resistors Rext1 and Rext2 are connected the pads C and D (also shorted). acam-messelectronic gmbh - Am Hasenbiel 27 - D-76297 Stutensee-Blankenloch - Germany - www.acam.de...
