Chapter 1. Product Overview

1.1 INTRODUCTION

This chapter provides an overview of the PT100 RTD Evaluation Board and covers the following topics:

• What is the PT100 RTD Evaluation Board?

• What the PT100 RTD Evaluation Board kit includes.

1.2 WHAT IS THE PT100 RTD EVALUATION BOARD?

The PT100 RTD Evaluation Board demonstrates how to bias a Resistive Temperature Detector (RTD) and accurately measure temperature. Up to two RTDs can be connected. The RTDs are biased using constant current source and the output voltage is scaled using a difference amplifier. In addition to the difference amplifier, a multiple input channel Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA) MCP6S26 is used to digitally switch between RTDs and increase the scale up to 32 times.

The output of the difference amplifier is connected to a 12-bit differential Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) MCP3301. The ADC outputs serial data to the PIC18F2550 using a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). The data is transmitted to a PC using a USB interface.

Chapter 2. Installation and Operation

2.1 INTRODUCTION

The PT100 RTD Evaluation Board allows the user to evaluate Microchip’s solution to accurately measure temperature using RTD. When biasing RTDs to measure temperature, self-heat due to power dissipation has to be considered. RTD resistance availability typically ranges from 100Ω to 5,000Ω. In order to measure the output voltage across the RTD over a wide temperature range, the biasing current has to be relatively high. This higher current causes more power dissipation through heat and skews the temperature reading. Microchp’s solution to this challenge is to use an MCP6S26 Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA) to increase the sensor dynamic output range and increase measurement resolution while significantly reducing the biasing current magnitude.

This board consists of a surface mount RTD to measure the PCB temperature. In addition, the user can connect and measure an external leaded RTD (2, 3 or 4-Wire) and configure the corresponding jumper to remotely measure temperature. The multiple input channel PGA adds gain programmability into the analog circuit. The multiple input channels are used to switch between RTDs and the gain is used to increase the sensor dynamic range.

The PGA output is connected to a differential amplifier circuit which allows the user to scale the sensor output. The differential output is digitized using an MCP3301 12-bit differential analog-to-digital converter. The data is transmitted to the PC using the USB interface. A Microsoft Excel-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) is used to obtain and display the data in real-time.

2.4 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

2.4.1 The PT100 RTD Evaluation Board

The PT100 RTD Evaluation Board uses surface mount RTD to measure temperature. An external 2, 3 or 4-wire PT100 RTD can also be connected to measure temperature in remote locations. The RTDs are biased using a constant current source. In order to reduce self-heat due to power dissipation, the current magnitude is relatively low. The small voltage across the RTD is amplified using the MCP6S26 PGA. The PGA allows the user to digitally program the amplifier gain and increase the sensor output range. The output of the PGA is scaled using a differential amplifier. The differential amplifier drives a 12-Bit + sign differential ADC, MCP3301. The digital data is read using PIC18F2550 and transmitted to PC using a USB interface.

2.4.1.1 THE CONSTANT CURRENT SOURCE

The constant current source uses a reference voltage, one amplifier and a PNP transistor, as shown in Figure 2-4.

The amplifier maintains constant voltage at the transistor emitter terminal. Therefore, the emitter and collector currents are constant. The collector current biases the RTD. The biasing current can be fine tuned by adjusting the 10 kΩ digital potentiometer using the GUI. A 100Ω, 0.1% resistor is available for system calibration at 0°C (RTD resistance at 0°C is 100Ω). This resistor can be jumped using JP1.

When connecting an external PT100 RTD, connect JP2 to External Position.

2.4.1.2 RTD SIGNAL CHAIN

The PGA is used to amplify the small voltage across the RTD. The reference input pin of the PGA is connected to the RTD negative terminal and Channel 0 and Channel 1 are connected to the positive terminals of each RTD. This allows only the voltage across the sensor to be amplified. The PGA has a gain error of ±1% (max.) for gains greater than 1 V/V. Refer to the datasheet (DS21685) for details.

The RTD negative terminal and the PGA output are connected to the differential amplifier. The differential amplifier scales the PGA output. The difference amplifier gain is shown in Equation 2-1.

2.4.1.3 THE GUI

⎛⎞ ⎝⎠

The GUI uses a Microsoft Excel-based macro to open the USB port and communicate with the PIC18F2550. When the file is opened, the macro checks hardware status. The status display indicates hardware status as shown in Figure 2-6.

FIGURE 2-6: Hardware Status

When start is clicked, the macro double checks hardware availability before starting the acquisition.

All user options such as Sampling time, Stripchart buffer size, Digi. Pot Positions, or PGA Chn/Gain setup can be changed during acquisition.
