10. Low-Pass Filter/Amplifier

11. System Diagram Cigarette Lighter Regulated Boost Converter (15V) Potentiometer, Tachometer, Load cell Regulated Boost Converter (20-30V) @ (2-20mA) Tri-axis and Single-axis Accelerometers Regulated Boost Converter (5V) @ (100mA) Motorola 68HC12

12. Sensor Power Supplies Potentiometer – Constant Voltage Output based on input Voltage Tachometer Load Cell Output based on input voltage All these devices need constant 15V source and will draw less than 100mA

13. Regulated 15V from a 12V DC Source

14. Accelerometer Supplies Tri-axis Accelerometer Single-axis Accelerometer These sensors require 20 – 30V at 2 – 20mA

15. 12-24V Boost Regulator

16. 68HC12 Power Supply Processor requires 3-5V and Imax=100mA Use LP2980 Buck Regulator

17. Control Box Microprocessor 8 Sensor Inputs A/DMemory Filter/ Amplification Serial Link Calibration

18. Microprocessor Behavior Tachometer Readings Trigger Operation In operation Sampled signals saved in memory Information streamed from memory to serial output

19. Potential Auto Calibration Verify that signals are within acceptable ranges If not, feedback signals are sent back to filter/amplification LED indicates that calibration has been performed
