7.3 TEDS transducer identification
Series U93 force transducers can be purchased with integrated TEDS chip. TEDS stands
for "Transducer Electronic Data Sheet".
An electronic data sheet can be stored in the transducer as defined in the IEEE1451.4
standard, making it possible for the amplifier to be set up automatically. A suitably
equipped amplifier imports the transducer characteristics (electronic data sheet), trans­
lates them into its own settings and measurement can then start.
At the gray connection (to ground at black), there is a digital identification system avail­
able. The basis for this is a DS2433 1‐wire EEPROM, made by Maxim/Dallas.
HBM provides you with the TEDS Editor program, for storing your data. This is a compo­
nent part of the MGCplus Assistant software, for example, or the TEDS dongle module
from HBM, that allows you to program TEDS, even without an amplifier.
