AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF INTELLIGENT INSTRUMENTS FOR IEEE 1451

Abstract:
In this work we present the design of a smart transducers interface module (STIM) that meets the IEEE 1451 normative. The improvement of this prototype is that it can work with any configuration of transducers without the necessity of changing the software and hardware of the STIM. The system automatically adapts its functions from the TEDS (Transducers Electronic Data Sheets). We only need to write the appropriate TEDS of our transducers configuration in a non-volatile memory of the STIM. We also have developed a PC TEDS editor that allows us to introduce them in a friendly way in a PC and save them into the STIM through the parallel port.
