Design of CMOS capacitance to frequency converter for high-temperature MEMS sensors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We present a CMOS capacitance to frequency convertor for capacitive MEMS sensors working in high temperature environments. Many MEMS sensors are needed to work at the extended military temperature range from -55 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">o</sup> C to 175 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">o</sup> C and require a suitable readout circuitry to detect, process, and transmit the sensor measurement data. The proposed CMOS circuitry uses a current to frequency conversion circuit to convert the sensor capacitance output into a digital output modulated in frequency. Pulse width control is implemented on-chip to control the pulse width of the output digital signal. The circuitry is implemented using IBM 0.13μm CMOS technology. Simulation results show that the circuitry has excellent stability over wide temperature range, good accuracy and high sensing resolution. The novelty in this work lies in the fact that a digital output is achieved without using complex analog to digital converter (ADC).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
