Abstract:
Sensitive pressure sensor with nitride membrane and optoelectronic read-out system is described. Measured pressure is transformed into thick layer nitride membrane deflection. Nitride membrane serves as a mirror for laser beam and can move reflected laser mark. Mark’s position is sensed using position sensing device – fotolateral diode. Diode double current signal is amplified and conditioned digitally by ADuC 812 microcomputer. This one chip microcomputer provides an IEEE 1451.2 interface.
