Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The concentration monitoring of trace pollutants (such as particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxides, etc.) in the air has become an important research direction of environmental protection. To realize real-time detection and high-precision analysis of these pollutants, it is of great significance to develop high-sensitivity, low-noise detection equipment.

[0003] Traditional air quality detection instruments are mainly based on chemical analysis or optical measurement methods. These methods usually require complex pretreatment processes, expensive equipment and long response times, making it difficult to meet the needs of rapid, portable and on-site monitoring. In recent years, sensor technology based on electrical signal measurement has received widespread attention in environmental air detection. This technology generates weak electrical signals by detecting the interaction between gases or particulate matter and sensors, reflecting the concentration of target substances. However, such signals are often very weak and susceptible to noise interference, so high-performance signal amplification and processing modules are needed to improve detection accuracy and stability.

[0004] Existing signal amplification circuits mainly use multi-stage amplifier design, but it is difficult to balance between high gain and low noise, and oscillation and instability problems often occur in high frequency range. In addition, due to the extremely low concentration of pollutants in the environment air (especially when detecting trace components in background air), the dynamic range of sensor output signals is very small, which puts higher requirements on the sensitivity and reliability of signal processing circuits. Therefore, how to design a high-sensitivity, low-noise, stable signal amplification and processing circuit is a problem that needs to be solved in the field of environmental air detection. SUMMARY

[0025] The communication unit 104 is used to transmit the digital signal to the cloud server.

[0026] In the signal amplification and processing unit 102, the negative electrode of the transimpedance amplifier OPA657 is connected to the output end of the photodetector, the positive electrode thereof is connected to a first external power supply, the compensation capacitor C8 and the first feedback resistor R6 are connected in parallel between the negative electrode and the output end of the transimpedance amplifier OPA657 respectively, the output end of the transimpedance amplifier OPA657 is further connected to one end of a coupling capacitor C13, the other end of the coupling capacitor C13 is connected to the negative electrode of the inverting amplifier OPA192, the positive electrode of the inverting amplifier OPA192 is connected to a second external power supply, and the output end thereof outputs a voltage signal.
