Description

Invenţia se referă la domeniul tehnicii de măsurare şi poate fi utilizată în aparate de măsurat, în care se utilizează senzori pe bază de oxizi semiconductori nanostructuraţi. The invention relates to the field of measurement technology and can be used in measuring devices, in which sensors based on nanostructured semiconductor oxides are used.

Este cunoscut un dispozitiv de măsurare a rezistenţei senzorilor bazat pe legea lui Ohm pentru circuite electrice sau punţi de măsurare, care include măsurarea rezistenţei active pe curent continuu cu ajutorul ohmmetrului digital, galvanometrului diferenţial şi potenţiometrului curentului continuu [1]. A sensor resistance measuring device based on Ohm's law for electrical circuits or measuring bridges is known, which includes measuring the active resistance on direct current using a digital ohmmeter, differential galvanometer and direct current potentiometer [1].

Cea mai apropiată soluţie este interfaţa analog-digitală de precizie pentru lucru cu senzorii micro- şi nanorezistivi, care conţin punţi de măsurare, ieşirile diagonalei de putere fiind conectate la sursa de tensiune, iar ieşirile diagonalei de măsurare fiind conectate cu intrările diferenţiale ale amplificatoarelor instrumentale [2]. The closest solution is the precision analog-digital interface for working with micro- and nanoresistive sensors, which contain measurement bridges, the outputs of the power diagonal being connected to the voltage source, and the outputs of the measurement diagonal being connected to the differential inputs of the instrumental amplifiers [2].

Un dezavantaj comun al acestor dispozitive este că pentru măsurarea rezistenţelor cu valori mari ale micro- şi nanostructurilor este necesar de utilizat amplificatoare instrumentale diferenţiale cu rezistenţele de intrare foarte mari (US 8263002 B1 2012.09.11; Oleg Lupan, Guangyu Chai, Lee Chow. Novel hydrogen gas sensor based on single ZnO nanorod, Microelectronic Engineering, Volume 85, Issue 11, November 2008, p. 2220-2225; O. Lupan, V.V. Ursaki, G. Chai, L. Chow. Selective hydrogen gas nanosensor using individual ZnO nanowire with fast response at room temperature, Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, Volume 144, Issue 1, 29 January 2010, p. 56-66). A common disadvantage of these devices is that for measuring high resistance values of micro- and nanostructures it is necessary to use differential instrumental amplifiers with very high input resistances (US 8263002 B1 2012.09.11; Oleg Lupan, Guangyu Chai, Lee Chow. Novel hydrogen gas sensor based on single ZnO nanorod, Microelectronic Engineering, Volume 85, Issue 11, November 2008, p. 2220-2225; O. Lupan, V.V. Ursaki, G. Chai, L. Chow.

Dispozitivul, conform invenţiei, înlătură dezavantajul menţionat mai sus prin aceea că include o sursă de tensiune de referinţă (Uref), tensiunea căreia se aplică la intrarea unuia din convertorii analogic-digitali (ADC) ai unui microcontroler (MCU) printr-un amplificator operaţional, şi care este conectată în serie cu o nanostructură cercetată (Rx) şi un rezistor suplimentar (R0), iar căderea de tensiune de pe rezistorul suplimentar (R0) se aplică la intrarea unui al doilea convertor analogic-digital (ADC) al microcontrolerului (MCU) prin cel de-al doilea amplificator operaţional; ieşirea microcontrolerului (MCU) este conectată la un ecran pentru afişarea rezultatelor obţinute. The device, according to the invention, eliminates the aforementioned disadvantage by including a reference voltage source (Uref), the voltage of which is applied to the input of one of the analog-to-digital converters (ADC) of a microcontroller (MCU) through an operational amplifier, and which is connected in series with a researched nanostructure (Rx) and an additional resistor (R0), and the voltage drop across the additional resistor (R0) is applied to the input of a second analog-to-digital converter (ADC) of the microcontroller (MCU) through the second operational amplifier; the output of the microcontroller (MCU) is connected to a screen for displaying the obtained results.

Rezultatul invenţiei constă în eliminarea influenţei rezistenţelor de intrare ale amplificatoarelor de instrumentaţie asupra rezultatelor măsurate. The result of the invention consists in eliminating the influence of the input resistances of the instrumentation amplifiers on the measured results.

Schema de principiu a dispozitivului este prezentată în fig. 2. Structura cercetată Rx, împreună cu rezistenţa calibrată în serie R0, sunt conectate la sursa de referinţă B1. Tensiunea sursei UB1 şi căderea de tensiune pe rezistenţa calibrată UR0 se amplifică şi se limitează cu ajutorul amplificatoarelor operaţionale U2:A şi U2:B într-un diapazon de la 0 V la 5 V, ceea ce este necesar pentru lucrul convertorului analogic-digital, şi ajung la intrările ADC0 şi ADC1 ale microcontrolerului U1. Valoarea rezistenţei calculate a senzorului se converteşte în coduri de control pentru indicatorul cu şapte segmente. Ieşirile portului C (PC0-PC7) ale microcontrolerului U1 determină cifra afişată, iar ieşirile PD0-PD3 ale portului D comutează ieşirile indicatorului, care lucrează în regim dinamic.

Exemplu de realizare Example of implementation

Tensiunea de referinţă U1 de pe sursa B1 se aplică la intrarea ADC0 a convertorului analogic-digital al microcontrolerului prin amplificatorul operaţional U2:A cu un coeficient de amplificare K1=R2/R3=1. La intrarea ADC1 a convertorului analogic-digital al microcontrolerului, prin amplificatorul operaţional U2:B cu coeficientul de amplificare К2=R6/R9=160, se aplică căderea de tensiune U2 de pe rezistorul etalon R0. În cazul analizat, tensiunea de la intrarea ADC0 a microcontrolerului constituie U1=1,2 V, iar tensiunea de la intrarea ADC1 U2=0,4 V. După conversia valorilor acestor tensiuni în format digital se realizează calculul valorii rezistenţei măsurate a nanostructurii conform expresiei : The reference voltage U1 from the source B1 is applied to the input ADC0 of the microcontroller's analog-to-digital converter through the operational amplifier U2:A with an amplification coefficient K1=R2/R3=1. At the input ADC1 of the microcontroller's analog-to-digital converter, through the operational amplifier U2:B with the amplification coefficient К2=R6/R9=160, the voltage drop U2 on the standard resistor R0 is applied. In the analyzed case, the voltage at the microcontroller's ADC0 input is U1=1.2 V, and the voltage at the ADC1 input is U2=0.4 V. After converting the values of these voltages into digital format, the measured resistance value of the nanostructure is calculated according to the expression:

Rx=( U1-U2 / K2 ) · R0 · K2 / U2 Rx=( U1-U2 / K2 ) · R0 · K2 / U2

ce va constitui, în cazul de faţă: what will constitute, in this case:

Rx = ( 1,2 - 0,4 /160 ) ·100 · 160 / 0,4 = 47,9 kΩ Rx = ( 1.2 - 0.4 /160 ) ·100 · 160 / 0.4 = 47.9 kΩ
