Introduction to common terminology of sensors-the second half


13. Output impedance

The impedance measured at the output of the sensor when the input is shorted.

 

14. Zero output

Under city conditions, the output of the sensor is measured as zero.

 

15. Lag

The maximum difference that occurs in the output as the measured value increases and decreases over the specified range.

 

16. Late

The time delay of the change in the output signal relative to the change in the input signal.

 

17. Drift

During a certain time interval, the sensor output is finally measured regardless of the amount of unwanted change.

 

18. Zero drift

Changes in zero output at specified time intervals and indoor conditions.

 

19. Sensitivity

The ratio of the increment of the sensor output to the corresponding increment of the input.

 

20. Sensitivity drift

A change in the slope of the calibration curve due to a change in sensitivity.

 

21. Thermal sensitivity drift

Sensitivity drift due to changes in sensitivity.

 

22. Thermal zero drift

Zero drift due to changes in ambient temperature.

 

23. Linearity

The degree to which the calibration curve is consistent with a specified specification.

 

24. Philippine linearity

The degree to which the calibration curve deviates from a specified straight line.

 

25. Long-term stability

The sensor remains capable of maintaining an error of no more than the specified tolerance for a specified period of time.

 

26. Intrinsic rate

When there is no resistance, the sensor's freedom (no external force) oscillates the rate.

 

27. Response

The characteristic that is measured and changed at the time of output.

 

28. Compensation temperature range

Allows the sensor to maintain the temperature range compensated by the zero balance within the range and within the specified limits.

 

29. Creep

When the measured machine has many environmental conditions that remain constant, the amount of output changes within a specified time.

 

30. Insulation resistance

Unless otherwise specified, the resistance value measured between the specified insulation parts of the sensor when a specified DC voltage is applied at room temperature.
