Design of a portable sensor analyzer : a report submitted to the faculty of the Milwaukee School of Engineering in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Engineering / by David Wilcox. by Wilcox, David., Milwaukee School of Engineering Subjects Detectors -- Testing.   Automobiles -- Electronic equipment   Measurement   MSE Project. Description:  177 leaves : illustrations, some of which are in color ; 29 cm. Contents:  Introduction -- Description of project -- Product specification -- Hardware design -- Software design -- System evaluation -- Conclusions -- Appendix A: Embedded system control software -- B: User interface visual basic code. The purpose of this project is to develop an instrument that is able to evaluate the functionality of sensors used at MGA Research Corporation. This functionality test references calibration values stored in a database located on a company server by use of a silicon serial number. Once the testing routine is complete the device compares the values measured with the reference values drawn from the database. The data are displayed to the user in an easily understandable format. This instrument required both hardware, embedded software, and a graphical user interface program to be designed to meet the product specifications. The hardware modules include a power supply block, an array of multiplexors, a microcontroller, a USB to 1-Wire interface, and a host computer. The embedded software module designed handles the communication structure between the host computer and the analog-to-digital converter system on a chip. The embedded software also controls the multiplexor array through its general purpose input output ports. The graphical user interface draws information from the database as well as controls the tests conducted and relays the collected information to the user. A fault evaluation test circuit was used to evaluate the sensor analyzer. It was found that the prototype sensor analyzer designed and fabricated for this project meets all of the product specifications. The sensor analyzer could detect the most common sensor failures found at MGA Research Corporation.
