6. USU 6/16 Block Diagram

7. USU 7/16 Operation Overview Altitude measurement based on barometric pressure is a function of temperature The MS5534A Digital Barometer senses both pressure and temperature Both pressure and temperature outputs are converted from analog to digital on-chip

8. USU 8/16 Operation Overview (cont.) Outputs:  Pressure: 16 bit number “D1”  Temperature: 16 bit number “D2” Each sensor is factory calibrated at two pressures and temperatures. This gives two constants. Pressure, Temperature, and the constants are used off-chip to calculate the altitude

15. USU 15/16 Altitude readout steps 1. Word 1 to Word 4 are read out of the serial interface. 2. Compensation coefficients C1 to C6 are extracted through the serial interface. 3. Then the 16 bit pressure and 16 bit temperature numbers can be read out in a loop. 4. Altitude is calculated from pressure, temperature, and the constants off-chip.

28. 28 Actuator: SQL Series Linear Motors Seth Young Mecatronics March 2006

29. USU 29/16 Features: Piezoelectric motor Scalable to millimeters in size Simple construction for high-volume, low-cost manufacturing Direct linear movement

30. USU 30/16 Features (cont.): Robust construction to withstand high shock loads Sub-micrometer precision Silent, ultrasonic operation Wide operating temperature range

31. USU 31/16 Overview SQL series linear SQUIGGLE motors are very small and have low power requirements. Because of this they are great for medical devices that are portable. They can withstand high shock. They also offer sub- micrometer precision and can supply up to four Newtons of force.

32. USU 32/16 Overview (cont.)

33. USU 33/16 Advantages of the Squiggle motor Electromagnetic motors have reached the limit of minimization In EM motors, more power is converted to heat than motion in motors smaller than 6mm There is less torque to overcome friction in the micro-gears

34. USU 34/16 Advantages of the Squiggle motor Squiggle motor gives greater efficiency for power Higher reliability Ten times better precision than EM motors

35. USU 35/16 Ultrasonic driver

36. USU 36/16 Design Fundamentally threaded nut and screw Two-phase sinusoidal drive signals cause piezoelectric actuators to vibrate the nut at fixed resonate frequency Because it’s ultrasonic it’s very quiet

37. USU 37/16 Design (cont.) The nut vibrates in a “hula hoop” motion The screw translation is bidirectional and the position of the tip of the screw is precisely controlled by the driver A position sensor is required to achieve repeatable steps.

38. USU 38/16 Design (cont.) The vibration stops at zero power and the threads hold position with very high stability and stiffness. Battery power is preserved because the screws stay in position without continuous power.
