Heimir Thordarson 9.1 25 The Sensor module is designed to measure any extra analog signals rear of the firewall. For AR26, the module is designed to measure two suspension displacement sensors, two oil temperature, four water pressure, four water temperature, and one air temperature sensor. All of the measurements are then transmitted to a CAN network, which there are two of.

Heimir Thordarson 11.3 29 In the following section, how the sensor module is connected will be covered. The connector for the sensor module is a [[High-Density d'sub-44>>https://www.te.com/en/product-2311770-1.html]] which is directly solderen onto the circuit board. The plug needed for this system is the [[204517-3>>doc:Sandbox.TestPage3]], which uses crimps instead of solder cups which is common for the dsub connectors

Heimir Thordarson 12.1 111
Heimir Thordarson 16.12 112 The air temperature sensor will be used to have a dynamic reference setpoint for the cooling system. This could reduce the current draw from the low voltage system compared to having a fixed reference point. This is because the regulator will not try to cool the water to a temperature lower than the ambient temperature. The sensor works as a resistor which varies depending on its temperature. Where in this case, the resistance lowers when the temperature increases (NTC). To make the microcontroller able to measure the changes in resistance, the thermistor is put into a voltage divider circuit.

Heimir Thordarson 35.6 117 As shown in the figure above, the thermistor is put into a voltage divider circuit with a 4k7 ohm resistor to convert the resistance changes of the thermistor to a measurable voltage. To find the temperature of the thermistor based on the voltage measure by the analog-to-digital converter (ADC), the resistance of the thermistor needs to be calculated based on the voltage from a voltage divider.

Heimir Thordarson 46.8 203 The sensors output latency can be expected to be a lot shorter than the air temperature sensor as the sensor is just a variable sensor based on placement. The limiting factor for the system which uses this information is the CAN-BUS messages from the inverters which send the information each 6.25 milliseconds. This means that the cut-off frequency cannot be any lower than 160 Hz, which will make the same type of low pass filter from the air temperature sensor acceptable with a cut-off frequency of 1591 Hz.

229 Knowing this, the resistance of the thermistor can be added into the following equation. This will determine the temperature of the thermistor based on the known resistance and the beta value of the thermistor.

247 === Filtering ===
248
Heimir Thordarson 58.3 249 The sensors output latency can be expected to be a lot shorter than the oil temperature sensor as the sensor is just a variable sensor based on placement. The limiting factor for the system which uses this information is the CAN-BUS messages from the inverters which send the information each 6.25 milliseconds. This means that the cut-off frequency cannot be any lower than 160 Hz, which will make the same type of low pass filter from the oil temperature sensor acceptable with a cut-off frequency of 1591 Hz.
