Item type:Publication, Linear Variable Differential Transformer Signal Conditioning Circuit Based on Phase-Locked LoopThe purpose of this paper is to propose a novel technique for extracting the position signal from an inductive displacement transducer named a linear variable differential transformer (LVDT). In general, the movement of the LVDT core causes its primary inductance change in linear form. The primary winding of the LVDT is used as a time-dependent element for the triangular and square wave generator, which can be called self-oscillation, to generate frequency. The advantage of the proposed technique is that it can measure the displacement using the LVDT without an external oscillator. The change in primary inductance causes the frequency deviation generated by the oscillator. The deviated frequency is captured and converted into a voltage signal using the principle of the phase-locked loop. All the components used in this study are commercially available. The merits of this proposed technique are simple configuration, small size, and low cost. Moreover, the operating range of the LVDT can be extended without the limitation of the nonlinear transfer characteristic. The performance of the proposed technique is discussed in detail and confirmed by experimental implementation. Experimental results show that the maximum error from the proposed technique is about 0.42% and the operating range of the LVDT can be extended to more than 200%. It can be seen that the proposed technique is suitable for embedded measurement in small or micro robots. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Wireless Carbon Monoxide Level Control and Monitoring SystemThis paper proposes an online carbon monoxide control and monitoring system. The proposed system comprises an MQ-7 CO gas sensor module, a DHT11 digital temperature and humidity sensor module, an ESP8266 module, and a Relay Module. The ThingSpeak platform is used to create HMI for online monitoring of CO level, temperature, humidity, and status of the ventilation fan. This proposed system can measure CO and monitor all parameters of measurement data, alert users when CO values exceed the set value. In addition, the measured CO values are used to control the ventilation system operation (ON or OFF) to maintain the CO at a non-harmful level. The experiment testing and results with three conditions show that the proposed system can measure and monitor CO level, temperature, and humidity online with satisfying values. The ventilation fan can operate with function as a design procedure and maintain CO at a non-harmful level. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Resistive-Sensor Interfacing Circuit for Remote Measurement Using CFOA(2024-01-01); ; ; Kaewpoonsuk, AnuchaAn alternative approach to implementing an interfacing circuit for resistive sensor-based remote measurement is presented. The proposed technique uses a Current Feedback Operational Amplifier (CFOA) as an active building block to produce an output voltage linearly related to the resistance of the sensor. Moreover, the accuracy of the output voltage is improved by the enhancement of CFOA. In addition, the proposed circuit provides compensation for the effects of lead-wire resistance. The performance of the proposed technique is discussed in detail and confirmed by PSPICE program simulation and experimental implementation. The resistance decade box is used in the experiment. The maximum error on the output voltage of the experimental results is about 0.4234 %. The experimental results show that the proposed technique provides good performance. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Timer-Based Capacitance-to-Voltage Converter(2026-03-01); This article presents the design and analysis of a capacitance-to-voltage converter based on 555-timer Integrated Circuits (ICs) as the core design element. The circuit structure consists of two primary active components: two 555-timer ICs connected in conjunction with a low-pass filter circuit. The first 555-timer IC operates in astable mode to generate a signal that controls the timing of the second IC. The target capacitor or capacitive sensor to be measured is connected to the second 555-timer IC, which operates in monostable mode. The output signal from the second 555-timer IC is then converted into a DC voltage output using a low-pass filter circuit. The circuit was tested using laboratory capacitors in the range of 52.72 pF to 807.61 pF, and the data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel. The results showed excellent agreement with the measurements obtained from the GW INSTEK LCR-819. The maximum uncalibrated error was found to be −3.32% of full scale. After applying linear curve fitting in Excel, the maximum error was reduced to 0.92% of full scale, confirming the effectiveness of the calibration approach. Furthermore, the circuit was applied to measure the moisture content of paddy rice using a cylindrical capacitive sensor within the moisture range of 12.1% to 23.2%. The experimental data were fitted to a derived equation, which was then used to predict rice moisture content, producing results that corresponded closely with those obtained from the KETT PM-450 grain moisture meter.
