基于SR7265硬件的虚拟锁相放大器、频谱仪、阻抗计和半导体参数分析仪

摘要

锁相放大器是用来测量微弱信号的专用仪器.即使噪音上千倍于被测信号,通过锁相放大器,也能得到精确结果.随着数字信号处理技术在仪器中的应用,可编程仪器变得越来越灵活.结合虚拟仪器的技术,论文通过对SR7265的硬件重新编程,在同一个硬件上实现了虚拟锁相放大器、虚拟频谱仪、虚拟阻抗计和虚拟半导体参数分析仪等等功能.本虚拟仪器采用了4层的逻辑结构.同样的功能也在一个FPGA板上成功地部署.%Lock-in amplifiers are used to detect and measure very small alternating current (AC) signals down to the range of nVs.Accurate measurements can be made even when the small signals are buried by noise thousands of times larger.With the digital signal processing (DSP) technology involved in modern instrumentation,a lock-in amplifier is more versatile in sensing and recovering small signals.Combining the virtual instrumentation technology,we reorganize the functional blocks of a programmable lock-in amplifier and build it as a virtual spectrum analyzer,virtual impedance meter,virtual network analyzer,virtual semiconductor parameter analyzer,signal generator,etc.A 4 layer model is used to implement these virtual instruments.The same virtual instrument can also be implemented on a general purpose FPGA developing board.
