18 Sensor Basics: Potentiometer The resistance of a given sample will increase with the length, but decrease with greater cross-sectional area. l 접촉점의위치 저항의변화

19 Sensor Basics: Potentiometer 계측방법 If R L is large compared to the other resistances (like the input to an operational amplifier), the output voltage can be approximated by the simpler equation:

20 Sensor Basics: Strain Gauge Strain is the amount of deformation of a body due to an applied force. More specifically, strain (e) is defined as the fractional change in length, as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Definition of Strain The gauge is attached to the object by a suitable adhesive, such as cyanoacrylate. As the object is deformed, the foil is deformed, causing its electrical resistance to change. This resistance change, usually measured using a Wheatstone bridge, is related to the strain by the quantity known as the gauge factor.

21 Sensor Basics: Strain Gauge A typical strain gauge arranges a long, thin conductive strip in a zig-zag pattern of parallel lines such that a small amount of stress in the direction of the orientation of the parallel lines results in a multiplicatively larger strain over the effective length of the conductor and hence a multiplicatively larger change in resistance than would be observed with a single straight-line conductive wire. Typical foil strain gauge. The gauge is far more sensitive to strain in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction.

22 Sensor Basics: Strain Gauge Visualization of the working concept behind the strain gauge on a beam under exaggerated bending.

23 Sensor Basics: Wheatstone Bridge It is used to measure an unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit, one leg of which includes the unknown component.

24 Sensor Basics: Wheatstone Bridge In the figure, Rx is the unknown resistance to be measured; R1, R2 and R3 are resistors of known resistance and the resistance of R2 is adjustable. If the ratio of the two resistances in the known leg (R2 / R1) is equal to the ratio of the two in the unknown leg (Rx / R3), then the voltage between the two midpoints (B and D) will be zero and no current will flow through the galvanometer Vg. R2 / R1 = Rx / R3

25 Sensor Basics: Wheatstone Bridge If R1, R2, and R3 are known, but R2 is not adjustable, the voltage difference across or current flow through the meter can be used to calculate the value of Rx,

26 Sensor Basics: Piezoresistive effect The piezoresistive effect describes the changing resistivity of a semiconductor due to applied mechanical stress. In semiconductors, changes in inter-atomic spacing resulting from strain affects the bandgaps making it easier (or harder depending on the material and strain) for electrons to be raised into the conduction band. This results in a change in resistivity of the semiconductor.

27 Sensor Basics: Piezoresistive effect Piezoresistivity is defined by Piezoresistivity has a much greater effect on resistance than a simple change in geometry and so a semiconductor can be used to create a much more sensitive strain gauge, though they are generally also more sensitive to environmental conditions (esp. temperature).

28 Sensor Basics: Capacitive Sensors Capacitive sensors use the electrical property of "capacitance" to make measurements. Capacitance is a property that exists between any two conductive surfaces within some reasonable proximity.

29 Sensor Basics: Capacitive Sensors Spacing variation[5] Spacing variation of parallel plates is often used for motion detection if the spacing change is less than the electrode size. The parallel plate capacitance formula shows that capacitance is inversely related to spacing. This gives a conveniently large value of capacitance at small spacing, but it does often require signal conditioning which can compensate for the parabolic capacitance-motion relationship. This is easily done by measuring impedance rather than capacitance.

30 Sensor Basics: Capacitive Sensors Area variation[5] As these plates slide transversely, capacitance changes linearly with motion. Quite long excursions are possible with good linearity, but the gap needs to be small and well-controlled.

31 Sensor Basics: Capacitive Sensors 계측방법, Signal Conditioning[5] An R-C relaxation oscillator such as the venerable 555 or its CMOS update, the 7555, converts capacitance change into a change of frequency or pulse width. The RC oscillator used with a spacing-variation capacitor will produce a frequency output which is linear with spacing, while an area-variation capacitor is linearized by measuring pulse width.

32 Sensor Basics: LVDT LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer) A type of electrical transformer used for measuring linear displacement. An LVDT Displacement Transducer comprises 3 coils; a primary and two secondaries.

33 Sensor Basics: Hall Effect For a simple metal where there is only one type of charge carrier (electrons) the Hall voltage V H is given by where I is the current across the plate length, B is the magnetic flux density, d is the depth of the plate, e is the electron charge, and n is the charge carrier density of the carrier electrons. Hall probes are often used as magnetometers, i.e. to measure magnetic fields.

34 Sensor Basics: Hall Effect Physics Animation Model The Hall-Effect

35 Sensor Basics: Hall Effect A Hall effect sensor is a transducer that varies its output voltage in response to changes in magnetic field. Hall sensors are used for proximity switching, positioning, speed detection, and current sensing applications.

36 Sensor Basics: Piezoelectric Effect Piezoelectricity is the charge which accumulates in certain solid materials (notably crystals, certain ceramics, and biological matter such as bone, DNA and various proteins) in response to applied mechanical strain. A piezoelectric disk generates a voltage when deformed (change in shape is greatly exaggerated)

37 Sensor Basics: Piezoelectric Effect Even though piezoelectric sensors are electromechanical systems that react to compression, the sensing elements show almost zero deflection. Additionally, piezoelectric technology is insensitive to electromagnetic fields and radiation, enabling measurements under harsh conditions. One disadvantage of piezoelectric sensors is that they cannot be used for truly static measurements.

38 Sensor Basics: Thermoelectric Effect The thermoelectric effect is the direct conversion of temperature differences to electric voltage and vice versa. A thermoelectric device creates a voltage when there is a different temperature on each side. At atomic scale (specifically, charge carriers), an applied temperature gradient causes charged carriers in the material, whether they are electrons or electron holes, to diffuse from the hot side to the cold side, similar to a classical gas that expands when heated; hence, the thermally induced current.

39 Sensor Basics: Thermoelectric Effect The Seebeck effect is the conversion of temperature differences directly into electricity. The effect is that a voltage, the thermoelectric EMF, is created in the presence of a temperature difference between two different metals or semiconductors. This causes a continuous current in the conductors if they form a complete loop. The voltage created is of the order of several microvolts per kelvin difference. One such combination, copper-constantan, has a Seebeck coefficient of 41 microvolts per kelvin at room temperature. S A and S B are the Seebeck coefficients (also called thermoelectric power or thermopower) of the metals A and B as a function of temperature, and T 1 and T 2 are the temperatures of the two junctions. The Seebeck effect is commonly used in a device called a thermocouple.

40 Sensor Basics: Coriolis Effect In physics, the Coriolis effect is an apparent deflection of moving objects when they are viewed from a rotating reference frame. In a reference frame with clockwise rotation, the deflection is to the left of the motion of the object; in one with anti-clockwise rotation, the deflection is to the right. The vector formula for the magnitude and direction of the Coriolis acceleration is where (here and below) a c is the acceleration of the particle in the rotating system, v is the velocity of the particle in the rotating system, and Ω is the angular velocity vector which has magnitude equal to the rotation rate ω and is directed along the axis of rotation of the rotating reference frame, and the symbol represents the cross product operator.

42 산소센서 Zirconia sensor 기전력 Titania sensor 가변저항

43 산소센서 Zirconia sensor The zirconium dioxide, or zirconia, lambda sensor is based on a solid-state electrochemical fuel cell called the Nernst cell. Its two electrodes provide an output voltage corresponding to the quantity of oxygen in the exhaust relative to that in the atmosphere. faq/enginesensors.html

44 산소센서 Titania sensor A less common type of narrow-band lambda sensor has a ceramic element made of titanium dioxide (titania). This type does not generate its own voltage, but changes its electrical resistance in response to the oxygen concentration.

45 공기량센서 (Airflow Sensor) Vane meter sensor (VAF sensor) Hot wire sensor (MAF) Coldwire" sensor Kármán vortex sensor

46 공기량센서 (Airflow Sensor) Vane meter sensor (VAF sensor)

47 공기량센서 (Airflow Sensor) Hot wire sensor (MAF) The theory of operation of the hot wire mass airflow sensor is similar to that of the hot wire anemometer (which determines air velocity). This is achieved by heating a wire with an electric current that is suspended in the engine s air stream, like a toaster wire. The wire's electrical resistance increases as the wire s temperature increases, which limits electrical current flowing through the circuit. When air flows past the wire, the wire cools, decreasing its resistance, which in turn allows more current to flow through the circuit. As more current flows, the wire s temperature increases until the resistance reaches equilibrium again. The amount of current required to maintain the wire s temperature is directly proportional to the mass of air flowing past the wire. The integrated electronic circuit converts the measurement of current into a voltage signal which is sent to the ECU.

48 공기량센서 (Airflow Sensor) Kármán vortex sensor A Kármán vortex sensor works by setting up a laminar air stream. The air stream is disrupted by a vertical bow in the sensor. This causes a wake in the air stream and subsequently the wake will collapse repeatedly and cause Kármán vortexes. The frequency of the resulting air pressure oscillation is proportional to the air velocity. These vortexes can either be read directly as a pressure pulse against a sensor, or they can be made to collide with a mirror which will then interrupt or transmit a reflected light beam to generate the pulses in response to the vortexes. The first type can only be used in pull thru air (prior to a turbo- or supercharger), while the second type could theoretically be used push or pull thru air (before or after a forced induction application like the previously mentioned super- or turbocharger). Instead of outputting a constant voltage modified by a resistance factor, this type of MAF outputs a frequency which must then be interpreted by the ECU.

63 MEMS The ADXRS gyros take advantage of this effect by using a resonating mass analogous to the person moving out and in on a rotating platform. The mass is micromachined from polysilicon and is tethered to a polysilicon frame so that it can resonate only along one direction. Figure 3 shows that when the resonating mass moves toward the outer edge of the rotation, it is accelerated to the right and exerts on the frame a reaction force to the left. When it moves toward the center of the rotation, it exerts a force to the right, as indicated by the orange arrows.

64 MEMS To measure the Coriolis acceleration, the frame containing the resonating mass is tethered to the substrate by springs at 90 relative to the resonating motion, as shown in Figure 4. This figure also shows the Coriolis sense fingers that are used to capacitively sense displacement of the frame in response to the force exerted by the mass, as described further on. Figure 4. Schematic of the gyro s mechanical structure.

65 MEMS Figure 5. The frame and resonating mass are displaced laterally in response to the Coriolis effect. The displacement is determined from the change in capacitance between the Coriolis sense fingers on the frame and those attached to the substrate.
