    This document introduces smart sensors, which combine a sensor and interfacing electronic circuits. Smart sensors have processing and communication capabilities that allow them to self-calibrate, broadcast information, and perform computations on sensor data. They have various applications in industries like accelerometers, optical sensors, and integrated multi-sensor chips. Key advantages include reduced size, cost-effectiveness, reliability, and flexibility. Challenges include increased complexity compared to simple sensors and higher costs for wired versions.

    Introduction What is Smart Sensors?

    Usefulness of Si technology in Smart Sensors


    Why smart sensor? Components of smart sensor General architecture of Smart Sensors Evolutions of Smart Sensors Advantages Application of Smart Sensors Industrial application area of Smart Sensors Disadvantages

    INTRODUCTION

    sensors are capable of manipulation and computation of the sensor-derived data Sensor + interfacing circuit = smart sensor Capable of * logic functions, * two-way communication, * make decisions.

    WHAT IS SMART SENSORS

    A sensor producing an electrical output when combined with interfacing electronic circuits is known as Smart Sensor", it is a combination of both sensor and actuator. It simply physical, biological or chemical input & converts it to the measured value into a digital format.

    USEFULNESS OS SILICON TECHNOLOGY IN SMART SENSORS

    Single chip solution

    Very small in size

    Less space in configuration

    Work with small signals

    WHY SMART SENSORS?


    Smart sensor enhances the following applications:

    Self calibration: Adjust deviation of o/p of sensor from desired value.


    Communication: Broadcast information about its own status. Computation: Allows one to obtain the average, variance and standard deviation for the set of measurements. Multisensing: A single smart sensor can measure pressure, temperature, humidity, gas flow and infrared, chemical reaction surface acoustic vapour etc. Cost effective: less hardware and reduction of repetitive testing make smart sensor cost effective.

    GENERAL ARCHITECTURE OF SMART SENOSRS


    The generalized architecture of smart sensor is shown below:

    EVOLUTION OF SMART SENSORS

    First generation devices had little, if any, electronics associated with them.

    Second-generation sensors were part of purely

    analog systems with virtually all of the electronics remote from the sensor.

    APPLICATIONS OF SMART SENSORS

    Accelerometer: It consists of the sensing element and electronics on silicon. The accelerometer itself is a metal-coated SiO2 cantilever beam that is fabricated on silicon chip where the capacitance between the beam and the substrate provides the output signal.

    APPLICATIONS

    Optical sensor: Optical sensor is one of the examples of smart sensor, which are used for measuring exposure in cameras, optical angle encoders and optical arrays. Similar examples are load cells silicon based pressure sensors.

    APPLICATIONS

    Infrared detector array:


    It is developed at solid laboratory of university of Michigan. Here infrared sensing element is developed using polysilicon.

    APPLICATIONS

    Integrated multisensor:

    This chip contains MOS devices for signal conditioning with on chip sensor. it is developed in university of California.

    INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION AREA OF SMART SENSORS


    Structural

    monitoring:

    It is needed to detect damages of industrial infrastructure.

    INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
    Geological

    mapping:

    It is needed mainly to detect the minerals on the geological areas. Digital imaging & interpretation of tunnel geology. Remote measurements of tunnel response.

    DISADVANTAGES

    The smart sensor consists of both actuators & sensors, so it is more complexed than other simple sensors.

    The complexity is much higher in the wired smart sensors, as a consequence the costs are also higher.
