A Small format microbolometer imaging sensor with digital video outputs Yalçın, Cem; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2016) This thesis presents a small format Readout Integrated Circuit (ROIC) for surface micromachined resistive microbolometer imaging sensors. The imaging sensor is designed to work in the Long Wave Infrared region (8 – 14 um) and is designed with an 80 x80 format with a pixel pitch of 25 um. The ROIC is optimized to perform the readout of MEMS pixels with resistance values around 60 Kohm, where infrared blind reference resistors with similar values are also used to cancel effects of selfheating and high biasi...
A low-cost uncooled infrared detector array and its camera electronics Akçören, Dinçay; Akın, Tayfun; Eminoğlu, Selim; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011) This thesis presents the development of integrated readout electronics for diode type microbolometers and development of external camera electronics for microbolometers. The developed readout electronics are fabricated with its integrated 160x120 resolution FPA (Focal Plane Array) in the XFAB SOI-CMOS 1.0 μm process. The pixels in the FPA have 70 μm pixel pitch, and they are sensitive in the 8–12 μm band of the infrared spectrum. Each pixel has 4 serially connected diodes, and diode turn on voltage changes ...
A Wireless Metamaterial-Inspired Passive Rotation Sensor With Submilliradian Resolution Gargari, Ali Maleki; Ozbey, Burak; DEMİR, Hilmi Volkan; ALTINTAŞ, AYHAN; Albostan, Utku; Kurç, Özgür; ERTÜRK, VAKUR BEHÇET (2018-06-01) A novel passive wireless rotation sensing system with high levels of sensitivity and resolution is proposed and demonstrated for measuring elastic-region bending in materials such as steel. This system is composed of a transceiver antenna and a double-plate sensor in the form of an inter-digital configuration, which does not incorporate any active component. The sensor exhibits a large rotation resolution of 20 mu-rad, an excellent sensitivity of 28 MHz/degrees in average, and a large linear dynamic range o...
A high-performance silicon-on-insulator MEMS gyroscope operating at atmospheric pressure Alper, Said Emre; Azgın, Kıvanç; Akın, Tayfun (Elsevier BV, 2007-03-30) This paper presents a new, high-performance silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MEMS gyroscope with decoupled oscillation modes. The gyroscope structure allows it to achieve matched-resonance-frequencies, large drive-mode oscillation amplitude, high sense-mode quality factor, and low mechanical cross-talk. The gyroscope is fabricated through the commercially available SOIMUMPS process of MEMSCAP Inc. The fabricated gyroscope has minimum capacitive sense gaps of 2.6 mu m and a structural silicon thickness of 25 mu m,...
A Sigma Delta micro accelerometer with 6 mu g/root Hz resolution and 130 dB dynamic range Sonmez, Ugur; Külah, Haluk; Akın, Tayfun (2014-11-01) This paper reports the implementation of a low noise, high dynamic-range I I" pound readout for low cost capacitive Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) accelerometers. The readout circuit sets the bandwidth of the I I" pound loop through an extra feedback path, and hence allows the closed loop system to operate with the low noise characteristics similar to a second-order I I" pound analog-to-digital converter. A thorough noise analysis of the proposed accelerometer shows that the mechanical noise is the...
