Glen Brisebois - Applications Engineer - Signal Conditioning

Glen Brisebois is an Applications Engineer with the Signal Conditioning group at Linear Technology in Silicon Valley. He attended the University of Alberta in Canada, achieving Bachelor's degrees in both Physics and Electrical Engineering. He attempted monastic life for several years with both the Trappists and the Carthusians, but couldn't stop thinking about circuits. He is now happily married with several children, and works a lot with circuits, but will sometimes advocate an ADC instead. His article "Signal Conditioning for High Impedance Sensors" at EDN magazine won the Best Article award of 2006.
