Sensor Authentication: Embedded Processor Code

Abstract

Described is the c code running on the embedded Microchip 32bit PIC32MX575F256H located on the INL developed noise analysis circuit board. The code performs the following functions: -Controls the noise analysis circuit board preamplifier voltage gains of 1, 10, 100, 000 -Initializes the analog to digital conversion hardware, input channel selection, Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) function, USB communications interface, and internal memory allocations -Initiates high resolution 4096 point 200 kHz data acquisition -Computes complex 2048 point FFT and FFT magnitude. -Services Host command set -Transfers raw data to Host -Transfers FFT result to host -Communication error checking
