  3. Signal Sources - 1 • Signal source concept • Sensors as an information source • Their output voltage or current level encodes information about the quantity to be measured • Remember the dishwasher light sensor example? • Output voltage proportional to intensity of light • Most often information is encoded as a voltage level • Ex. The voltage output from a Wheatstone bridge • The information: weight on the scale encoded as a voltage • Current level also used • 4 – 20 mA commonly used in industrial controls • Signals to power interface

  4. Dx mgsin(q)force component q mg Signal Sources - 2 • Sensor data sheets • ADXL203 • Precision ±1.7 g dual-axis accelerometer • Can use also to sense tilt • iPhone display • 1000 mV/g sensitivity • 17mg/deg from horizontal • 17 mV/deg tilt http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/ADXL103_203.pdf Horizontal Tilted Slope=sensitivity Sinefunction

  5. Vout 1V/g Input quantity Vout Ro Input quantity noise 1V/g Signal Sources - 3 • Ideal signal source • Ideal voltage source • No output impedance • Practical signal source • Relatively low-level output • Finite output impedance • Prone to noise • Zero offset • Non-linear
