1 Furse, Cynthia M.Capacitance and inductance sensor circuits for detecting the lengths of open- and short-circuited wiresThe length of an open- or short-circuited wire is linearly proportional to the capacitance or inductance of the wire, respectively. Several types of simple and inexpensive circuits are introduced to measure these values. Open-circuited (capacitance) measurements are very effective. Short-circuited ...Aging aircraft wire; Capacitance sensors; Fault detection; Inductance sensors2009-08
2 Furse, Cynthia M.; Harrison, Reid R.Low-power STDR CMOS sensor for locating faults in aging aircraft wiringA CMOS sensor used to locate intermittent faults on live aircraft wires is presented. A novel architecture was developed to implement the Sequence Time Domain Reflectometry method on a 0.5- m integrated circuit. The sensor locates short or open circuits on active wires with an accuracy of +/-1 ft w...Aging aircraft wire; CMOS sensors; Fault detection; Pseudo-random noise; Reflectometry methods; Spread spectrum; Wire fault location2006-01-01
