We have implemented an inexpensive circuit that indicates when a subject is in close proximity to a specified area of arbitrary shape and size. The circuit can transform an easily created metal surface or a preexisting metal object into an experimental sensor. The subject need not make physical contact with the sensor to activate the mechanism, which enables the detection of subjects through nonconductive materials, such as wood and plastics. The technology is readily adapted to existing experimental setups. Applications of ...

Electrical capacitance sensing technique is used in many industrial applications. It is being used through the tomography technique in the non-destructive test, process monitoring and control systems and also as proximity sensors. In this paper, electrical capacitance sensor to detect dielectric material has been constructed and experimentally studied. The miniature two plates of electrical capacitance sensor (ECS) is designed using COMSOL Multiphysics software to see the electric field and contour of the electric potential of the system. The capacitance value of the sensor is measured based on AC circuit concept. The alternating current from the sensor flows to the detector circuit providing the voltage corresponding to the capacitance between a pair of electrode. The voltage from the detector has been amplified by amplifier circuit before sending to the lowpass filter to filter out any unwanted signal of the fringe effect. A signal conditioning circuit will process the signal befo...

Sensor Technology Dr. Konstantinos Tatas

Outline • Introduction • Sensor requirements • Sensor Technology • Selecting a sensor • Interfacing with sensors • Integrated sensors • Nanosensors • Case studies

Introduction • A sensor is a device that converts a physical quantity into a signal (typically voltage) that can be measured • Typical sensors: • Temperature • Humidity • Pressure • Acceleration • Light intensity

Sensor requirements • Sensitivity: The smallest change in quantity it can detect • Linearity: The range of detection should be mapped to the output value range ideally in a linear or logarithmic function • Must not disturb the measured quantity • Must not be sensitive to other properties of the environment • Power consumption: Sensors vary significantly in power consumption depending on their materials

Selecting a sensor • Appropriate dynamic range: • Sufficient sensitivity:

Interfacing with a sensor • Sensors may be: • Standalone: analog output, require an ADC to read them • Digital output: The ADC is integrated, the digital value can be read • Integrated in an MPSoC: The sensor, the ADC and the processor and memory elements are in a single chip

u(V) 1111 1110 16 1100 14 12 1010 1001 10 1000 8 0110 0101 0100 6 4 u(V) 2 16 ADC 1111 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 t (S) 1110 14 1100 12 D0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1010 10 1001 1000 D1 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 8 DAC 0110 6 D2 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 0101 0100 4 D3 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 t (S) Signals (Analog - Digital) • Analog Signal • can take infinity values • can change at any time • Digital Signal • can take one of 2 values (0 or 1) • can change only at distinct times Reconstruction of an analog signal from a digital one (Can take only predefined values)

QUANTIZATION ERROR • The difference between the true and quantized value of the analog signal • Inevitable occurrence due to the finite resolution of the ADC • The magnitude of the quantization error at each sampling instant is between zero and half of one LSB. • Quantization error is modeled as noise (quantization noise)

SAMPLING FREQUENCY (RATE) • The frequency at which digital values are sampled from the analog input of an ADC • A low sampling rate (undersampling) may be insufficient to represent the analog signal in digital form • A high sampling rate (oversampling) requires high bitrate and therefore storage space and processing time • A signal can be reproduced from digital samples if the sampling rate is higher than twice the highest frequency component of the signal (Nyquist-Shannon theorem) • Examples of sampling rates • Telephone: 4 KHz (only adequate for speech, ess sounds like eff) • Audio CD: 44.1 KHz • Recording studio: 88.2 KHz

Digital to Analog Converters • The analog signal at the output of a D/A converter is linearly proportional to the binary code at the input of the converter. • If the binary code at the input is 0001and the output voltage is 5mV, then • If the binary code at the input becomes 1001, the output voltage will become ...... 45mV • If a D/A converter has 4 digital inputs then the analog signal at the output can have one out of …… values. 16 • If a D/A converter has N digital inputs then the analog signal at the output can have one out of ……. values. 2Ν

Characteristics of Data Converters • Number of digital lines • The number bits at the input of a D/A (or output of an A/D) converter. • Typical values: 8-bit, 10-bit, 12-bit and 16-bit • Can be parallel or serial • Microprocessor Compatibility • Microprocessor compatible converters can be connected directly on the microprocessor bus as standard I/O devices • They must have signals like CS, RD, and WR • Activating the WR signal on an A/D converter starts the conversion process. • Polarity • Polar: the analog signals can have only positive values • Bipolar: the analog signals can have either a positive or a negative value • Full-scale output • The maximum analog signal (voltage or current) • Corresponds to a binary code with all bits set to 1 (for polar converters) • Set externally by adjusting a variable resistor that sets the Reference Voltage (or current)

Characteristics of Data Converters (Cont…) • Resolution • The analog voltage (or current) that corresponds to a change of 1LSB in the binary code • It is affected by the number of bits of the converter and the Full Scale voltage (VFS) • For example if the full-scale voltage of an 8-bit D/A converter is 2.55V the the resolution is: VFS/(2N-1) = 2.55 /(28-1) 2.55/255 = 0.01 V/LSB = 10mV/LSB • Conversion Time • The time from the moment that a “Start of Conversion” signal is applied to an A/D converter until the corresponding digital value appears on the data lines of the converter. • For some types of A/D converters this time is predefined, while for others this time can vary according to the value of the analog signal. • Settling Time • The time needed by the analog signal at the output of a D/A converter to be within 10% of the nominal value.

ADC RESPONSE TYPES • Linear • Most common • Non-linear • Used in telecommunications, since human voice carries more energy in the low frequencies than the high.

ADC TYPES • Direct Conversion • Fast • Low resolution • Successive approximation • Low-cost • Slow • Not constant conversion delay • Sigma-delta • High resolution, • low-cost, • high accuracy

Sensor sensitivity vs ADC resolution • Sensor sensitivity (accuracy) and ADC resolution are not the same thing! • The TCN75A is rated for an accuracy of +/-1ºCand has selectable resolution from 0.5ºC downto 0.0625ºC • What is the maximum error when reading a value of 24.63ºC with a resolution of 0.5ºC? • What is the error upper bound for any temperature?

Case study 1: Generic sensor with analog output const int potPin = 0; // select the input pin for the potentiometer void loop() { int val; // The value coming from the sensor int percent; // The mapped value val = analogRead(potPin); // read the voltage on the pot //(val rangesfrom 0 to 1023) percent = map(val,0,1023,0,100); // percent will range from 0 to 100. EXAMPLE: Temperature sensor const int inPin = 0; // analog pin void loop() { int value = analogRead(inPin); float millivolts = (value / 1024.0) * 3300; //3.3V analog input float celsius = millivolts / 10; // sensor output is 10mV per degree Celsius delay(1000); // wait for one second }

Case study 2: PIR motion sensor

Using PIR motion sensors const int ledPin = 77; // pin for the LED const int inputPin = 2; // input pin (for the PIR sensor) void setup() { pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // declare LED as output pinMode(inputPin, INPUT); // declare pushbutton as input } void loop(){ int val = digitalRead(inputPin); // read input value if (val == HIGH) // check if the input is HIGH { digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); // turn LED on if motion detected delay(500); digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // turn LED off } }

Case study 3: ultrasonic sensors • The “ping” sound pulse is generated when the pingPin level goes HIGH for two microseconds. • The sensor will then generate a pulse that terminates when the sound returns. • The width of the pulse is proportional to the distance the sound traveled • The speed of sound is 340meters per second, which is 29 microseconds per centimeter. The formula for the distance • of the round trip is: RoundTrip = microseconds / 29

Using ultrasonic sensors const int pingPin = 5; const int ledPin = 77; // pin connected to LED void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); } void loop() { int cm = ping(pingPin) ; Serial.println(cm); digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); delay(cm * 10 ); // each centimeter adds 10 milliseconds delay digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); delay( cm * 10); }

Using ultrasonic sensors int ping(int pingPin) { long duration, cm; pinMode(pingPin, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(pingPin, LOW); delayMicroseconds(2); digitalWrite(pingPin, HIGH); delayMicroseconds(5); digitalWrite(pingPin, LOW); pinMode(pingPin, INPUT); duration = pulseIn(pingPin, HIGH); // convert the time into a distance cm = microsecondsToCentimeters(duration); return cm ; } long microsecondsToCentimeters(long microseconds) { // The speed of sound is 340 m/s or 29 microseconds per centimeter. // The ping travels out and back, so to find the distance of the // object we take half of the distance travelled. return microseconds / 29 / 2; }

Case study 4: Temperature sensor void setup(){ IOShieldTemp.config(IOSHIELDTEMP_ONESHOT | IOSHIELDTEMP_RES11 | IOSHIELDTEMP_ALERTHIGH); } //oneshot mode, 11-bit resolution and alert void loop() { float temp; int celsius; char sign, msd_char, lsd_char; //Get Temperature in Celsius. temp = IOShieldTemp.getTemp(); }

Case study 5: Gyro sensor • Gyro sensors measure angular velocity in a device (typically in degrees/s) • Example: Analog devices ADIS16266 • Yaw rate gyroscope with range scaling • ±3500°/sec, ±7000°/sec, and ±14,000°/sec settings • 2429 SPS sample rate • Start-up time: 170 ms • Sleep mode recovery time: 2.5 ms • Calibration temperature range: −40°C to +70°C • SPI-compatible serial interface • Relative angle displacement output • Embedded temperature sensor • Digital I/O: data ready, alarm indicator, general-purpose • Sleep mode for power management • DAC output voltage • Single-supply operation: 4.75 V to 5.25 V • 3.3 V compatible digital lines • Operating temperature range: −40°C to +105°C

Case study 6: accelerometer

Case study 7: Resistive touchscreen • A uniform voltage gradient is applied to one sheet. Whenever the second sheet touches the other sheet, the second sheet measures the voltage as a distance along the first sheet. This combination of voltage and distance provide X coordinate. • After the X coordinate is located, the process repeats itself by applying uniform voltage gradient to the second sheet in order to find the Y coordinate. This entire process happens in a matter of milliseconds, oblivious to human eye.

Reading XY coordinates from resistive touchscreen sensor const xres = ; Const yres = ; const int xPin = 0; // analog input pins const int yPin = 1; void loop() { int xcoord, ycoord; int xres, yres; xres = analogRead(xPin); yres = analogRead(yPin); xcoord = map(xres,0,1023,0,xres); ycoord = map(yres,0,1023,0,yres); delay(100); }

Example const int xPin = 0; // analog input pins const int yPin = 1; void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); // note the higher than usual serial speed } void loop() { int xValue; // values from accelerometer stored here int yValue; xValue = analogRead(xPin); yValue = analogRead(yPin); Serial.print("X value = "); Serial.println(xValue); Serial.print("Y value = "); Serial.println(yValue); delay(100); }

Question 1 • A temperature measurement system uses a sensor that operates in the -20 to 32.5 degrees Centigrade. The system requires a resolution of 0.05 degrees. Choose an appropriate ADC between 8, 10 and 12 bit options.

Distance Measurement with Laser Sensor Technology

It is one of the essential elements of an advanced laser distance measure. It is made of hundreds or thousands of pixels arranged in a line. The linear image is utilized to recognize unequivocally where the target is in front of the sensor. Eventually, it brings about a precise, stable estimation. A laser emitter transmits visible laser light through a lens, towards an object. A surface of the target reflects the laser light, where the receiver lens on the sensor reflects the light and creates the spotlight on the linear image. To Know More Visit: http://bit.ly/2GQjAuL
