Introduction to Modeling
Define the terms System Surroundings Input/output Transducer
Distinguish between sensors and actuators For a given transducer, identify the
appropriate inputs and outputs For a given transducer, find find/calculate
span, full scale output, sensitivity, accuracy, and resolution
Distinguish between static and dynamic response characteristics of transducers
For a given transducer, find find/calculate
response time, overshoot, gain, and phaseshift, and
Explain the concept of resonance
Some definitions
System:Region of space set aside for analysis
Boundary:Defines a system such that everything within it is the system
Surroundings:Everything outside the system
Interactions between the system and surroundings:• Inputs from surroundings to the system• Outputs from system to the
surroundings.

surroundings“Stuff” can be a physical quantity (p. ej., masa, energía) or something more abstract (p. ej, information, a signal, or a reading)

MEMSsensor
This is the “MEMS” we usually model.
• How many inputs/outputs are
there?
• What are the inputs?
• What are the outputs?
• What is the relationship between
the inputs and the outputs?
• What do we need to know about
what is inside the “black box” in
order to find those relationships?
Transducers
Most MEMS are transducers.
Sensors
• Input is some physical quantity whose value we wish to know (p. ej., temperatura)
• Output is some other physical quantity (p. ej., voltage) whose value correlates to the measurand
Sensors measure something
Actuators
• Input is usually a voltage or some other electrical signal
• Output is physical motion of some kind
Actuators move something

Loading
The act of measuring alters the thing we’re trying to measure

Power input to transducers
Many sensors require a voltage supply as a second input to provide power for signal conditioning—circuits that help convert the output signal to a form useful for the application
Sensors and actuators require different amounts of input power. Sensors are low input-power devices; actuators are high-input-power
devices
Power input Converted into the actuation outputControl input Tells the system what to do
Transducer characteristics
Static response characteristics
Span (or full scale input)Range of input values over which a transducer produces output values with acceptable accuracy
UnitsSame as input. (p. ej., Pa for a pressure sensor)
Full-scale output (FSO)Range of output values corresponding tothe span.
UnitsSame as output (p. ej., V for a pressure sensor)
For an actuator? μm
Transducer characteristics
Static response characteristics
Sensitivity Constant of proportionality between output and input for a linear transducer.
Slope of the best-fit line.
UnitsOutput units/input units.
Accuracy How close the transducer output is to
• (sensor) true value of the measurand, or
• (actuator) the desired output effect.
Accuracy is determined by a calibration procedure
Transducer characteristics
Static response characteristics
Resolution
• (sensor) smallest detectable change in the measurand
Unitsunits of the measurand
• (actuator)smallest change in output that can effected by changing the input
Unitsunits of the output effect(e.g., μm for displacement)

y(t)
Amplitude ratio (or gain)
Ratio of the output amplitude to the input amplitude• Usually reported in decibels (dB)• dB = 20log(gain).
Can change as a function of the input frequency
Can be magnified at some frequencies and attenuated (reduced) at others.

• Amount of by which an output sine wave is “misaligned” with the input
• Usually reported as phase angle φ = ωt
