Introduction to Modeling • Define the terms • System • Surroundings • Input/output • Transducer • Distinguish between sensors and actuators • For a given transducer, identify the appropriate inputs and outputs • For a given transducer, find find/calculate • span, • full scale output, • sensitivity, • accuracy, and • resolution • Distinguish between static and dynamicresponse characteristics of transducers • For a given transducer, find find/calculate • response time, • overshoot, • gain, and • phaseshift, and • Explain the concept of resonance
Some definitions • System: • Region of space set aside for analysis • Boundary: • Defines a system such that everything within it is the system • Surroundings: • Everything outside the system • Interactions between the system and surroundings: • Inputs from surroundings to the system • Outputsfrom system to the surroundings. boundary system surroundings “Stuff” can be a physical quantity (p. ej., masa, energía) orsomething more abstract (p. ej, information, a signal, or a reading)

Transducers • Most MEMS are transducers. • Sensors • Input is some physical quantity whose value we wish to know (p. ej., temperatura) • Output is some other physical quantity (p. ej., voltage) whose value correlates to the measurand • Sensors measure something • Actuators • Input is usually a voltage or some other electrical signal • Output is physical motion of some kind • Actuators move something

Power input to transducers Many sensors require a voltage supply as a second input to provide power for signal conditioning—circuits that help convert the output signal to a form useful for the application Power input Converted into the actuation output Control input Tells the system whatto do Sensors and actuators require different amounts of input power. Sensors are low input-power devices; actuators are high-input-power devices
Transducer characteristics Static response characteristics Span (or full scale input) Range of input values over which a transducer produces output values with acceptable accuracy Units Same as input. (p. ej., Pa for a pressure sensor) Full-scale output (FSO) Range of output values corresponding to the span. Units Same as output (p. ej., V for a pressure sensor) For an actuator? μm
Transducer characteristics Static response characteristics • Sensitivity • Constant of proportionality between output and input for a linear transducer. • Slope of the best-fit line. • Units • Output units/input units. • Accuracy • How close the transducer output is to • (sensor) • true value of the measurand, or • (actuator) • the desired output effect. • Accuracy is determined by a calibration procedure
Transducer characteristics Static response characteristics • Resolution • (sensor) • smallest detectable change in the measurand • Units • units of the measurand • (actuator) • smallest change in output that can effected by changing the input • Units • units of the output effect • (e.g., μm for displacement)

Response to sinusoidal input y(t) MEMS Transducer Time Time Frequency Amplitude Phase • Same as frequency • larger, smaller, or the same • In or out phase • Amplitude ratio (or gain) • Ratio of the output amplitude to the input amplitude • Usually reported in decibels (dB) • dB = 20log(gain). Can change as a function of the input frequency Can be magnified at some frequencies and attenuated (reduced) at others.
Response to sinusoidal input • Resonance • Large magnification at certain frequencies and not others • Phase shift • Amount of by which an output sine wave is “misaligned” with the input • Usually reported as phase angle φ = ωt resonance frequencies in phase out of phase
