摘要: Embodiments herein relate to a system and method for detecting an open circuit in a sensor measurement system. The system including a sensor (22a - 22n) having a direct current (DC) output, operably connected to a wiring harness (27a - 27n) and configured to transmit a sensor signal, and a controller (100), the controller (100) operably connected to the wiring harness (27a - 27n). The controller (100) is configured execute a method including receiving a sensor signal from the sensor, AC coupling an AC signal with the sensor signal to form a coupled signal, measuring the coupled signal, determining if an open circuit is present based on the coupled signal and characterizing the sensor as failed if the open circuit is detected.

摘要: A dynamic calibrating current sensor control system includes an input power supply (202) that generates an input current and a current sensor (208) interposed between the input power supply and the load. The current sensor is configured to output at least one current signal indicating a level of current delivered to the load. The dynamic calibrating current sensor control system also comprises an electronic switching control circuit (212) that generates at least one control signal to selectively connect the input power supply to the load, and an electronic drift suppression circuit (214) in signal communication with the current sensor and the switching control circuit. The drift suppression circuit is configured to generate a corrected current signal in response to applying an offset value to the current signal. The offset value cancels the drift current from the current signal in response to connecting the input power supply to the load.

摘要: A sensor interface (100) includes a sensor circuit (102), a drive circuit (108) connected to the sensor circuit (102) with active and inactive states, and a back-bias circuit (106). The back-bias circuit (106) is connected between the drive circuit (108) and the sensor circuit (102). The back-bias circuit (106) is arranged to allow current to flow from the drive circuit (108) to the sensor circuit (102) when the drive circuit (108) is in the active state. The back-bias circuit (106) is also arranged to limit current flow from the drive circuit (108) to the sensor circuit (102) when the drive circuit (108) is in the inactive state. Sensor arrangements and open circuit detection methods are also described.
