description | The accuracy and stability of excitation source determine the measurement accuracy of passive sensor measurement system, but the implementation of high-precision excitation source (especially AC excitation source) is difficult or costly in design and process. For this purpose, this paper proposes a systematic proportional method. In this method, the DC voltage converted by the excitation signal is taken as the reference voltage of the ADC used in this system. And then the ratio of the measured signal to the excitation signal is obtained by using the transmission characteristics of the ADC, therefore the amplitude fluctuation of the excitation signal is compensated. The method can greatly suppress the measurement error caused by the amplitude fluctuation of the excitation signal and the fluctuation of the ADC reference voltage, and effectively improve the measurement accuracy of the measurement system. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, the Wheatstone bridge measurement circuit is designed. The experimental results show that when the amplitude of the excitation signal changes 50%, the measurement result of the measurement system using non-proportional method changes about 50%, while that of the measurement system using proportional method only changes about 1%. To further improve the measurement accuracy, the DC bias voltage compensation circuit is added, and the maximum variation error of the measurement result after compensation is only 0.3%. More importantly, the method can also be extended to other linear measurement systems with excitation source in principle, which has greater application value. |
