Bridge Sensing with the MCP6S2X PGAs
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Resistive sensors configured as Wheatstone bridges are primarily used to sense pressure, temperature or loads. An external A/D converter (ADC) and a digitally Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA) can easily be used to convert the difference voltage from these resistor bridge sensors to usable digital words for manipulation by the microcontroller. When the PGA is used in this system, the other channels of the MCP6S2X can be used for other sensors without an increase in signal conditioning hardware or PICmicro® microcontroller I/O pin consumption. The multiplexer and high-speed conversion response of the PGA/Analog-to-Digital (A/D) conversion allows a differential input signal to be sampled and converted in the analog domain and then subtracted in the digital domain with the microcontroller.

Target detection Bridge Modelling using Point Cloud Segmentation Obtained from Photogrameric UAV
In recent years, great efforts have been made to generate 3D models of urban structures in photogrammetry and remote sensing. 3D reconstruction of the bridge, as one of the most important urban structures in transportation systems, has been neglected because of its geometric and structural complexity. Due to the UAV technology development in spatial data acquisition, in this study, the point cl...

The persistence and costs of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors + prostaglandin analogues (CAIs + PGAs) vs alpha-2 adrenergic agonists + prostaglandin analogues (alpha-2 agonists + PGAs) were compared, based on The United Kingdom General Practitioner Research Database. Patients with a diagnosis of ocular hypertension, glaucoma, or treated for this, were selected. Selected patients were prescribed CA...
متن کاملThe Outlaw Method for Solving Multimodal Functions with Split Ring Parallel Genetic Algorithms
The similarities between island model parallel genetic algorithms (PGAs) and natural islands invite the application of certain geobiological concepts to the eld of evolutionary computation. Heretofore, island model PGAs have usually been used to nd single solutions to unimodal functions. However, geobiology's split ring species phenomenon| which refers to the tendency of related environments to...
متن کاملParticle gibbs with ancestor sampling
Particle Markov chain Monte Carlo (PMCMC) is a systematic way of combining the two main tools used for Monte Carlo statistical inference: sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). We present a new PMCMC algorithm that we refer to as particle Gibbs with ancestor sampling (PGAS). PGAS provides the data analyst with an off-the-shelf class of Markov kernels that can be used ...
متن کاملTowards a Complexity Model for Design and Analysis of PGAS-Based Algorithms
Many new Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) programming languages have recently emerged and are becoming ubiquitously available on nearly all modern parallel architectures. PGAS programming languages provide ease-of-use through a global shared address space while emphasizing performance by providing locality awareness and a partition of the address space. Examples of PGAS languages include...
