description | This paper presents a portable magnetic induction tomography (MIT) transceiver integrated circuit to miniaturize conventional equipment-based MIT systems. The miniaturized MIT function is enabled through single-chip transceiver implementation. The proposed MIT transceiver utilizes a phase-locked loop (PLL) for frequency sweeping and a phase-domain sigma⁻delta modulator with phase-band auto-tracking for a full-range fine-phase resolution. The designed transceiver is fabricated and verified to achieve the measured signal to noise and distortion ratio (SNDR) of 101.7 dB. Its system-level prototype including in-house magnetic sensor coils is manufactured and functionally verified for four different material types. |
