electrically act as variable resistors in each of the bridges. The sensors hold a
constant temperature at all times as they contain a linear resistance change
with temperature. The Neonatal Flow sensor is connected to the Ventilator
Monitoring Board (VMB) through the Motherboard via Port 1 and a 2

meter
long shielded cable, detachable at both ends. The other Wheatstone bridge
resistors and all associated drive circuitry reside on the VMB. As gas (Air and
Oxygen) flows, current through the hot wire elements increases. These
currents are converted to a voltage, amplified, offset with a voltage reference
and converted to a digital value by the 12-bit ADC. Because of the
bidirectional nature of gas flow at the patient wye, a post that is situated
between the elements serves to shadow the downstream element and reduce
the downstream signal. By comparison of the individual signal levels of the
two hot wire elements, flow direction can be ascertained.
