Microcontroller
The microcontroller handles all the logic functions of the instrument, performs the linearization for non linear transducers,
compensates for the reference junction temperature, drives the digital display and acknowledges all the operator’s
instructions.
The core of the circuit is a single-chip microcomputer that utilizes HCMOS technology to provide the low power
characteristics and high noise immunity of CMOS plus the high speed operation of HMOS.
The microcomputer provides highly sophisticated, on- chip peripheral functions including: 256 bytes of static RAM, an 8
channel analog to digital (A/D) converter (used to read the Rj value, the setting of the input comparator, the battery
package voltage and the value of the auxiliary input), a serial communication interface (SCI) subsystem, and a serial
peripheral interface (SPI) subsystem.
The microprocessor works with an 8-bit communication bus to EPROM and EEPROM memories and is interfaced with a
decoder, a latch of address and an inverter-driver.
4.4
Firmware
The operating system firmware handles all the logic instructions to the internal peripheral circuits and performs the
computation of the linearization equations.
The application system firmware is resident on the non-volatile memory (EEPROM) of the microprocessor chip.
It is used to store the installation parameters (autocalibration data, program data, etc.)
4.5
Display
The custom display, placed on an auxiliary board, uses high contrast LCD technologies (STN liquid).
OSP
thermometers
are standard equipped with a backlight device for easy readings in poor light conditions.
4.6
Battery charger
The auxiliary module, supplied as a standard accessory, allows operations from 115 Vac 50/60 Hz.
OSP
, if needed, can
be operated directly from a line source through the charger.
The plastic case of the battery charger incorporates the line voltage plug and a cable with a connector for
interconnections to the instrument.
The charger circuit is designed with an insulating transformer and a voltage stabilizer circuit. The step-down transformer
reduces the power line 115 Vac to a value of 10 Vac. The above voltage is full wave rectified , filtered and stabilized. The
output voltage of 5.6 Vdc is the ideal value to recharge the internal Ni-MH batteries
4.7
Digital interface
The digital interface circuit is essentially based on the serial communication interface subsystem (SCI) on the chip of the
microprocessor at 0 / +5V level. Adapters to convert TTL to RS 232 voltage levels are available from OMEGA.
