RESUMO

The purpose of this work was the development of an acquisition, processing and storage system of a signal from an arrangement of sensors based on IEEE 1451.4 standard, resulting in a plug&play sensors system. The acquisition signal system proposed will permit to monitoring several kinds of sensors for a variety application in the fields of biomedical, industrial automation and environment and many others. The system proposed is formed by a module, called STIM (Smart Transducer Interface Module) that the main element is a general purpose microcontroller with RISC architecture, [Johnson 2001]. The STIM module is connected with a PC computer by serial interface (RS232) to transmit the data from sensors and to receive the control commands. The analog sensors here utilized was adapted to the system utilizing a technique called MMI (Mixed Mode Interface) attending the IEEE 1451.4 standard, transforming the sensors in a plug&play system. The STIM module is assisted by a PC via resident software that will permit the acquired data viewing and recording in file for further study. The plug&play sensors system was developed utilize the TEDS structure (Transducer Electronic Data Sheet) recorded in a non volatile serial memory. The TEDS has specifications and technical information from the transducer according a model (template) in conformity of IEEE 1451.4 standard , as well, when a sensor is connected , the system shows information on the PC screen, as the connected channel , the kind of the sensor , the model , serial number, producer name and produced date. In this work three MMI modules were implemented utilizing three analog sensors; temperature, pressure and pH. These three MMI modules lets realize comparative measurements that grounds the system operation.
