1 测控技术与仪器专业英语unit 2 Unit3 Smart Sensors 第1页/共34页 3 Introduction Just about everything today in the technology area is a candidate（申请求职者，候选人；报考者）for having the prefix （前缀）smart added to it. The term smart sensor was coined in the mid-1980s, and since then several devices have been called smart sensors. 译为：在今天几乎一切的技术领域都将智能一词作为其前缀的候选。智能传感器这一术语是在20世纪80年代中期出现的，从那以后，一些设备已被称之为智能传感器。 第2页/共34页 4 The intelligence required by such devices is available from microcontroller unit (MCU), digital signal processor (DSP), and application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) technologies developed by several semiconductor manufacturers. 句中microcontroller unit(MCU)意为“微控制器单元”，digital signal processor (DSP)意为“数字信号处理器”，application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC)意为“特殊应用集成电路”。 全句译为：这些设备所具有的智能源于半导体生产厂家开发的微控制器（MCU）、数字信号处理器（DSP）和特殊应用集成电路（ASIC）技术。 第3页/共34页 5 Some of those same semiconductor manufacturers are actively working on smarter silicon devices for the input and output sides of the control system as well. The term microelectromechanical system (MEMS)（微机电系统）is used to describe a structure created with semiconductor manufacturing processes for sensors and actuators. 译为：一些半导体制造商正在积极的进行控制系统的输入和输出两个方面的智能装置的研究。微机电系统（MEMS）这个术语用来描述对传感器和加载器用半导体制造工艺建立的结构。 第4页/共34页 6 Before the availability of microelectronics, the sensors or transducers used to measure physical quantities, such as temperature, pressure, and flow, usually were coupled（连接，联结，联系）directly to a readout device, typically a meter that was read by an observer. 译为：应用微电子技术之前，传感器或转换器用于测量物理量，如温度，压力，流量，通常直接与读数装置相连，通常一个仪表有一个观察员读数。 第5页/共34页 7 The transducer converted the physical quantity being measured to a displacement. The observer initiated system corrections to change the reading closer to a desired value. The typical blocks of a measurement system are shown in Figure 3.1. 译为：该转换器将测量的物理量进行转换。观察员对系统进行修正以使结果接近理想值。典型的测量系统的组成框图如图所示。 Figure 3.1 General sensing system 第6页/共34页 8 Many home thermo
