- safety sensor 73 is here as another sensor unit 33 of
- the values detected by the safety sensor 73 are also taken into account for the determination of the temperature by the sensor device 3.
- the values of the safety sensor 73 are used. So z. B. the temperature, which was determined by means of the other sensor unit 23 on the detected thermal radiation, are compared with the temperature detected by the safety sensor 73. This adjustment can on the one hand serve to control the function of the sensor device 3, but on the other hand can also be used for a tuning or adjustment of the sensor device 3.
- the task of the other sensor unit 23 can also be taken over by the safety sensor 73 in an embodiment not shown here.
- the safety sensor 73 serves to determine the temperature of the glass ceramic plate 15. For example, with knowledge of this temperature from the heat radiation, which detects the first sensor unit 13, the proportion of a pot bottom can be determined.
- Such a configuration has the advantage that the other sensor unit 23 and an associated filter device 53 can be saved.

- Amplifier device 620 based on various output signals 130 (see Figure 6) of the first sensor unit 13.
- Amplifier device 620 tapped and applied over time 302. To clarify the advantages of offset matching, the amplifier signals 621 .1, 621 .2 shown here are based on 621 .3 on different output signals 130, which were not adjusted by an offset 600. Due to the lack of offset matching, the amplifier device 620 is overdriven at the upper amplifier signal 621.3, while the lower two amplifier signals 621.1, 621.2 are in the linear amplifier range.

B. can occur even with induction hobs in frying operations. In this case, an overdriving of the amplifier device 620 occurs. With such a signal curve, reliable determination of the reflectance is no longer possible.
- One approach would be e.g. to reduce the gain, which would, however, corresponding losses in terms of the resolution and thus the accuracy of the reflectance measurement would result, since the output signal 130 of the sensor unit must be suitably high amplified in order to obtain a sufficient resolution for the reflection measurement. Besides, one would
- the output signal 130 of the respective sensor unit is first adjusted by the adjustable offset 600 and only then amplified.
- the offset 600 (cf., FIG. 7) is advantageously selected such that the voltage of the output signal on the output signal 130 based input signal for the amplifier device 620 is moved to a voltage range in which a possible linear gain is ensured.
- FIG. 6 shows a schematized amplifier device 620 with a displacement device 610 and a differentiation device 650.
- the output signal 130 of the first sensor unit 13 is transmitted via the intermediate difference formation device 650 as
- Input signal 651 of the amplifier means 620 is supplied and amplified by this.
- the now amplified by the amplifier means 620 output signal 130 of the first sensor unit 13 leaves the amplifier means 620 as the amplifier signal 621 and can be further evaluated for temperature determination, for. B. from the sensor device 3 itself or from the controller 106th
- the amplifier signal 621 is applied to the
- Displacement device 610 forwarded.
- the shifter 610 evaluates the incoming amplifier signal 621. If the signal lies in an overdriven area or outside a region defined by a threshold value 663 (see FIG.
- Displacement device 610 an adjustment of the output signal 130 of the sensor unit, before it is the amplifier means 620 is supplied as an input signal 651, by an offset 600, to push the resulting amplifier signal 621 back into an area which does not overdrive.
- the reference voltage 641 applied to the second input of the intermediate device 650 connected between the sensor unit and amplifier device is adapted via a fine adjustment.
- Differentiating means 650 and the reference voltage 641 at the second input of the differentiating means 650 then gives rise to a differential voltage, which can then be amplified by the amplifier means 620, so that the differential voltage is the voltage of the input signal 651 for the amplifier means.
- a suitably high reference voltage is set. This results in a reference voltage minus the output signal voltage Differential voltage, which is smaller than the voltage of the output signal 130 and thus can be amplified without overdriving.
- Versatz prepared 610 at least one microcontroller 61 1 with at least one
- Input module 612 and at least one output module 614 is provided.
- Input module 612 comprises in particular an A D converter, which preferably also for
- the output module 614 comprises a D / converter and / or a PWM output for switching over reference voltages, preferably in combination with a low-pass filter, and / or at least one digital output. It may also be provided as shown here, an additional circuit 640 for fine adjustment. The fine adjustment takes place in particular before the actual reflection measurement is carried out. With this solution, an equivalent measurement of the reflectance is independent of the instantaneous temperature of the glass ceramic plate 15 and the cooking vessel possible.
- the amplifier device may also be designed as an operational amplifier and thereby include the difference forming means, so that it is not separately perform.
- Such an amplifier device would have two inputs, wherein the output signal of the sensor device is applied to one input and the reference voltage set in each case by the offset device is present at the other input.
- FIG. 7 shows a profile of an amplifier signal 621.
- the output voltage 662 at the amplifier was plotted against the output voltage 661 of the sensor signal, that is, the voltage of the output signal 130 of the sensor unit.
- the output signal 130 to be amplified is automatically adjusted by the offset 600 when the amplifier signal 621 reaches a threshold 663 at which overdriving is imminent.
- the offset 600 is set by the microcontroller 61 1, which applies a suitable reference voltage to the subtraction device 650.
- the reference voltage is set here so that the maximum permissible input voltage 651 results as the differential voltage, which does not lead to overdriving the amplifier.
- the offset 600 is selected here from a group of skews 601, 602, 603, 604, depending on how high the exceeded threshold value is.
- Each offset 600 is characterized by a predetermined voltage. This results in the characteristic Z offset shown here, ie a Z-like profile of the amplifier signal 621.
- signals with a very wide voltage range can be amplified without the amplifier device 620 must have multiple stages or amplifier areas. As a result, calibrations of amplifier ranges can be saved.
- the offset 600 is taken back accordingly. This is z. B. reduces the reference voltage.
- the corresponding amplifier signal 621 always lies in a linear range and thus offers an optimum resolution, so that a reliable temperature determination based on the output signal 130 is possible.
