Using KEMET Analog Flame Sensors Dealing with Analog Circuits
■General IR flame detectors must have a long detection distance.
■To detect flames at a long distance the amplifier gain must be extremely high.
■To reduce signal to noise ratios within the circuit, it is common practice to use multiple amplifiers rather than just a single amplifier with high gain. Also, the use of multiple amplifier circuits allows signal conditioning to be applied.
■If the signal conditioning takes the form of a Bandpass filter.The Bandpass filter conditions the output signal from the Flame detector, so that each stage of the amplifier ONLY amplifies the signal of interest and not amplifies the surrounding electrical noise. In this way we are able to reduce the signal to noise ratio (SNR) of the circuit while also applying a high gain to the electrical signal.
■This application note explains how to calculate the gain and flicker frequency of the band pass filter circuit.
