    Abstract: A piezoelectric system comprises a piezoelectric sensor, a voltage stabilizer, a discharger and an operation sensor. The piezoelectric sensor outputs a sensing signal through a sensor output terminal according to a rate of change of pressure. The voltage stabilizer has a positive terminal electrically connecting with the sensor output terminal. The voltage stabilizer receives the sensing signal, stores the energy of the sensing signal, and keeps the voltage of the sensing signal as a constant when the rate of change of pressure is zero. The discharger has a first terminal connecting with the positive terminal, a second terminal coupled to ground, and a control terminal receiving a trigger signal to control the first terminal to conduct with or not conduct with the second terminal. The operation sensor electrically connects to the control terminal for sensing an operation generating the pressure and outputs the trigger signal accordingly.

    Abstract: A laser inspection system is provided. A laser source emits a laser with a first spectrum and the laser is transmitted by a first optical fiber. A gain optical fiber doped with special ions is connected to the first optical fiber, and a light detector is provided around the gain optical fiber. When the laser with the first spectrum passes through the gain optical fiber, the gain optical fiber absorbs part of the energy level of the laser with the first spectrum, so that the laser with the first spectrum is converted to generate light with a second spectrum based on the frequency conversion phenomenon. The light detector detects the intensity of the light with the second spectrum, so that the power of the laser source can be obtained.

    Abstract: A MEMS apparatus having measuring range selector including a sensor and an IC chip is provided. The sensor includes a sensing device. The IC chip includes a voltage range selector, an analog front end, a control device and an A/D converter. The sensing device is configured to detect the physical quantity and generate a sensing voltage. The voltage range selector is configured to select a sub-voltage range having a first upper-bound and a first lower-bound. The analog front end is configured to receive the sensing voltage and output a first voltage. The A/D converter has a full scale voltage range having a second lower-bound and a second upper-bound. A ratio of the full scale voltage range to the sub-voltage range is defined as a gain factor. A difference obtained by subtracting the first lower-bound from the first voltage is defined as a shift factor. The control device is configured to adjust the first voltage to the second voltage according to the gain factor and the shift factor.

    Abstract: A spindle shaft device including a shaft, a first torque sensor, and a second torque sensor. The shaft extends along an axial direction and comprises a first side portion, a second side portion, and a central portion located between the first side portion and the second side portion. The central portion has a central torsional rigidity with respect to the axial direction. The first side portion has a first torsional rigidity with respect to the axial direction. The second side portion has a second torsional rigidity with respect to the axial direction. The first torsional rigidity is smaller than the central torsional rigidity. The second torsional rigidity is smaller than the central torsional rigidity. The first torque sensor is disposed on the first side portion. The second torque sensor is disposed on the second side portion.
