Typical construction of a smart sensor

Create Date: 2024-8-30 12:03:23|Source: P+F/Double Blessing

A sensor is an input device that receives a signal or stimulus and responds to it. Some sensors now integrate many sensing elements and readout circuitry into a single silicon chip, which then provides high accuracy and multiple functions. The new sensors are more versatile, including user-friendliness, accessibility and flexibility. As a result, the sensor industry has changed dramatically by integrating new technologies to make sensors more intelligent.

                               Typical construction of a smart sensor

Our smart sensors communicate with each other via standard bus or wireless network interfaces, or with microcontrollers (MCUs). The network interface makes data transfer easier and also expands the system. Manufacturers are able to diagnose sensor faults and guide users through remote troubleshooting via a computer network.

A smart sensor may consist of a series of analog and digital modules, each of which serves a specific function. Data processing and analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) functions help improve sensor reliability and measurement accuracy.
