Abstract

This paper presents a SOI Hall sensor based microsystem for energy measurement. The mixed-mode signal circuitry has been entirely designed and integrated in the experimental 0.5 mu m fully depleted SOI 3 V technology. It consists of an integrated Hall element, chopper stabilized sensor bias system, analog front end and digital back end. Aiming at performing accurate measurements, we have implemented a high linearity analog front end, as well as a high-resolution analog-to-digital conversion technique. Two versions of the microsystem have been realized. The first test chip contains a classical instrumentation amplifier as sensor amplifier, whereas the second one contains a linearized differential-difference amplifier as sensor amplifier. Both microsystems are fully functional and permits one to perform the measurements with an overall system error that is less than 1.5%. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Analog-to-digital converter

In electronics, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC, A/D, or A-to-D) is a system that converts an analog signal, such as a sound picked up by a microphone or light entering a digital camera, into a digital signal. An ADC may also provide an isolated measurement such as an electronic device that converts an analog input voltage or current to a digital number representing the magnitude of the voltage or current. Typically the digital output is a two's complement binary number that is proportional to the input, but there are other possibilities.

Digital camera

A digital camera is a camera that captures photographs in digital memory. Most cameras produced today are digital, largely replacing those that capture images on photographic film. Digital cameras are now widely incorporated into mobile devices like smartphones with the same or more capabilities and features of dedicated cameras (which are still available). High-end, high-definition dedicated cameras are still commonly used by professionals and those who desire to take higher-quality photographs.

Digital audio

Digital audio is a representation of sound recorded in, or converted into, digital form. In digital audio, the sound wave of the audio signal is typically encoded as numerical samples in a continuous sequence. For example, in CD audio, samples are taken 44,100 times per second, each with 16-bit sample depth. Digital audio is also the name for the entire technology of sound recording and reproduction using audio signals that have been encoded in digital form.
