Popis: | International audience; This paper presents an electronic platform for driving resonant MEMS in inertial sensors, and possibly other resonant or carrier based sensors. The architecture is fully integrated in a digital programmable device (FPGA), and avoids several critical components when dealing with space qualification. The core hardware functions are Direct Digital Synthesis , Sigma-Delta modulation, Time to Digital conversion. These functions are driven by an embedded processor, managing a second level of software functions : synchronous demodulation, Phase-Locked Loop, decimation, digital communications. The specificity of this digital platform is to avoid usual Analog-To-Digital and Digital-To-Analog conversion. All measurements are performed by means of digital delay counting, yet allowing an interesting resolution of 16 bits even on carried signals up to 100 kHz with a frequency resolution better than 1 µHz (11 digits on the frequency). A prototype of vibrating accelerometer has been integrated and characterized to experience the electronic performance on a real sensor. The results show that the embedded architecture is already close to the performance obtained with separate equipments on the test bench. |
