For signal conditioning, this is the set of operations (eg amplification, filtering, level adaptation) that needs to be performed on an electrical signal to make it suitable for the next circuit.
Signal conditioning is mainly used in the data acquisition field, where signals from a sensor must be normalized and filtered at levels that make them compatible for subsequent analog-to-digital conversion so that they can be read through software tools. Other uses include pre-processing of signals in order to reduce the time of calculation and data conversion to binary values (for example, to investigate whether the amount measured by a sensor has or has not reached a certain value).
