RECAP• Measures vibrations resulting from sound

waves.• Designed for covert surveillance but has

other uses.

EDWARD

PROBLEMS• Lab access

– Need sponsorship• Optics

– Alignment– Expensive

• Lasers– Safety

EDWARD

ACCOMPLISHMENTS• Basic photodiode

– Viewed a distorted version of original signal• Working sound box

– Aquarium with speakers• A/D Converter

– Confirmed capability– Stores digital signal

EDWARD

LOW GOALS•Basic bounce at an angle configuration•Replay Signal•Basic Filtering

EDWARD

MEDIUM GOALS• Identify audio source through DSP (FFT)• Store audio signal• Terminal Control

EDWARD

HIGH GOALS• Interferometry configuration• LCD Display• FFT signal analysis directly on board• Wireless signal communication

HARDWARE FUNCTIONAL DECOMP

SUN

POWERWall Wart• 12 V DC• 1-2 A

SUN

3.3V RAIL• Powers the microprocessor• Can be powered by either USB or Wall

wart• RS232RL chip

SUN

± 10V RAIL• MUX• OpAmps

SUN

LASER DRIVER• Adjustable intensity• Power the laser

SUN

OPTICS• Interferometery is on the backburner.• Focusing on Bounce System• Mounting

– Rail– Board– Tripods

KAREEM

FILTERS• All Filters are Active• Bessel Filters

– Maximally flat group delay– All filters are second order

• Antialiasing Filter– 4th order Butterworth– Very sharp cutoff– Phase delay not particularly important

OP-AMPS• Op-Amps are LMP7704

– Low Noise– Wide Supply Range– High Bandwidth– Quad Package

• 14 Pin SOIC Narrow

KAREEM

DETECTOR• Using a BPW21R photodiode for bounce

– Detects light between 450nm and 700nm• Detection speed is not particularly

important– No need to bias the photodiode– Sensitivity is increased when photodiode is

unbiased• Gain can be adjusted easily
