    摘要: A method and a device for analyzing a sensor element are described, which allow a temperature dependence of the sensor element to be considered without an additional temperature sensor in particular. The sensor element outputs a signal as a function of a measured variable. The signal of the sensor element is analyzed in a first analysis operating mode to detect the measured variable. The signal of the sensor element is analyzed in a second analysis operating mode to detect a characteristic variable of the sensor element which is different from the measured variable.

    摘要: An object of the present invention is to provide a charge amplifier which can be operated at low cost so that electric charge generated in a piezoelectric pressure sensor having one end grounded is converted into a voltage signal.In the charge amplifier (1) according to an embodiment of the present invention, a plus side power source input terminal of an operational amplifier (5) is connected to a plus power source (+5 V) while a minus side power source input terminal of the operational amplifier (5) is grounded, so that the operational amplifier (5) is supplied with a single power source. Further, an offset voltage lower than the plus power source voltage but higher than the ground potential is applied to a non-inverted input terminal of the operational amplifier (5). Accordingly, change of pressure in both positive and negative directions can be converted into a voltage signal with the offset voltage as its center though the operational amplifier (5) is driven by a single power source. That is, cost can be suppressed because a double power source is not required.

    摘要: Positive charges of a sensor element are stored in a capacitor for converting a voltage, are converted into a positive voltage by an amplifier, and then are outputted. When the polarity of the charges of the sensor element are inverted to the negative, the charges inversely flow from the capacitor for converting the voltage and feed back to an equivalent capacitor of the sensor element, and an output of the amplifier reduces and returns to a zero-point, an automatic correcting circuit makes an FET conductive and the charges are discharged in order to prevent the fluctuation of the zero-point level due to the negative drift.

    摘要: A positive charge of a sensor element is charged in a signal converting circuit, is converted into a positive voltage, and is outputted. When the polarity of the charge of the sensor element is inverted to the negative and an output of the signal converting circuit is decreased, the leaked charges are superimposed and become the negative. An automatic correction circuit detects the negative output and discharges the charges so as to set the input to null0null. Thus, the offset of the signal level due to the charge leakage is automatically corrected.

    摘要: The piezoelectric effect of an optical sensor (6) made from quartz is a function of temperature. Without correcting or compensating measures, this temperature dependence leads to a falsification of the measuring signal if the temperature of the sensor element is not held constant. In order to obtain accurate measurements for variable sensor temperatures T.sub.s, a temperature-corrected measuring signal M is provided in accordance with:M=U13.multidot.(1+.alpha..multidot.(T.sub.0 -T.sub.s)),U13 signifying a control signal, T.sub.0 a prescribable calibration temperature of the sensor (6), and .alpha. the temperature coefficient of the sensor (6). In this case, the sensor temperature (T.sub.s) is calculated in accordance with:T.sub.s =f(K,E(U.sub.Tr)),K being a contrast parameter which is calculated from light power signals (U1, U2), is a function of the sensor temperature (T.sub.s) and is proportional to the interference contrast, and U.sub.Tr signifying a signal receiver temperature signal and T.sub.r signifying a signal receiver temperature. The contrast parameter (K) is arrived at by virtue of the fact that an oscillator signal (U.sub.HF) of prescribable amplitude is superimposed on a control signal (U13) of a differential voltage regulator (11), the frequency (f) of said oscillator signal being at least so high that a light modulation effected in the receiving fiber (r) by the oscillator signal (U.sub.HF) is not compensated by the differential voltage regulator (11).

    摘要: Disclosed is a system wherein the compensation for temperature effects on a pressure measurement gauge are accomplished by processing the raw pressure measurement signal from the gauge through a linear differential equation to produce a thermally compensated measurement. The linear differential equation expresses the thermally compensated pressure determination as a relation between a derivative of temperature and a derivative of pressure error. The linear differential equation contains several coefficients having constant values, and these constant values are computed by calibrating the pressure gauge in a pressure tank having a known pressure and temperature. When the gauge is later placed in an oil or gas well, the coefficient values are used to obtain the corrected measured pressure from the raw measured pressure received from the gauge.

    摘要: A pressure sensor, comprising: a substrate having a measuring membrane, and an electrically conductive cover layer, which has electrical contact elements and is electrically isolated from the substrate by an insulating layer. The cover layer is divided in such a manner that two independent measurements of the respective resistance between two contact elements are possible in two regions electrically isolated from one another. The regions of the cover layer serve to shield external electromagnetic influences from the sensor elements of the measuring membrane, to detect damage to the measuring membrane, as well as for determining exact temperature.
