Exponentially damped signals, generally provided by specific sensors, are of great interest because they are used in various applications (e.g., laser detectors, biomedical devices, particle physics, study of vibrations). The aim of this work is to design, build and characterize a small device (the use of the term “board” would be very reductive) which can acquire and process this kind of signals. Within the actual framework of devices for this purpose, the innovation the authors introduce is related to the “intelligence” included within the device, based on inherent requirements associated with their use. The current proposal, opportunely tuned, could be also applied to a number of different applications. The above signals are generally processed using both hardware and software features. But hardware procedure allows to process large data-based signals. One of the most advantage of their work is related to the use of such a board for portable apparatuses. |
