The four electrochemical sensors were carefully chosen and have two working electrodes of Au and two of Pt. One Au and one Pt electrode are operated at anodic potentials to facilitate oxidations, and the other two are operated at cathodic potentials to facilitate reductions. When an electroactive gas passes through this array, the half-wave potential of the chemical species is not measured. However, by comparing the signals from the sensors in the array, one can tell whether the half-wave potential is above or below 1.0 V vs. the standard hydrogen electrode (nhe). Thus, the array signals from these sensors, while not measuring the thermodynamic half-wave potential, do provide a set of chemical parameters related to the vapor s electrochemical properties. Hence, the term "chemical parameter spectrometry" was chosen to describe this technique. 

The data processing of the multivariate output data generated by the gas sensor array signals represents another essential part of the electronic nose concept. The statistical techniques used are based on commercial or specially designed software using pattern recognition routines like principal component analysis (PCA), cluster analysis (CA), partial least squares (PLSs) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA).

Fig. 5 a, b. Illustration of the computation principles for (a) artificial neural networks with input signals (array signals), hidden nodes chosen during the training of the net, and output signals (the parameters to be predicted) and (b) principal component analysis with two principal components (PC 1 and PC 2) based on three sensor signals (represented by the x, y and z axes). Normally reduces from approximately 100 signals down to two or three PCs... 

The embedded microcomputer board applies the ASD (Advanced Spectral Deconvolution) algorithm to the Diode Array signal, stores the spectra, the results together with the traceability data (time, user, sampling site...). All the results are displayed on a bright graphic screen with the traceability data and the multi-parameters concentrations. PASTEL UV can be used for a wide range of applications such as ... 

For each molecule, experimental and simulated spectra are digitalized by recording into separate arrays signal intensities at given intervals of the spectrum. 

The diode array signals are output on a video line. This was connected to a fast sample-and-hold and then a fast (2 js)... 

Figure 9. An evaluation of the response of the photodiode arrays signal as a function of light intensity of 50ps duration. The light intensity was varied with a neutral density filter. The light was created by exciting a solution of tetraphenyl ethylene in hexane with 30-ps, 355-nm light pulses. This molecule is known to have a fluorescence lifetime of 6 3 ps in these environments.

Sensor array signal processing. As noted above, data from sensor arrays can be treated as a pattern recognition problem. Many types of traditional and novel approach have been explored for practicality and suitability.

Is the resolution good enough to accurately quantify the array signals Each feature on the array surface should be covered by enough measurements to get a reasonable average reading (e.g., a lOO-pm spot with a 10-pm resolution scanner returns 100 pixels per spot). 

A variety of polymer films that have distinctly different electrical resistance responses to various vapors can be prepared to obtain diagnostic array signal patterns in response to a series of odorants. However, their use in RAC is very limited. 

ASUs are connected via dedicated busses. To control the data communication (multiplexers/demultiplexers), a hierarchically decomposed FSM is added. The decomposition of the FSM is required for timing reasons. To store array signals, distributed RAMs and pointer-addressed memories have to be provided.

Caution must be exercised with array names since the s3mthesizer may strip ofifiieir parentheses. For example, an array signal element A(0) would be converted to AO by the compiler. This will cause an error if a scalar signal has also been named AO. Therefore, avoid using names that end in a number, such as LOAD or D6, when also using array types. This also applies to variables and constants. 

In this second example the two input bits S and P have been concatenated to form a 2-bit array signal This is a useful technique, which avoids the construction of emb ded Case statements. Circuits s)nithesized from code using embedded Case statements will be larger than their equivalent If or Case constructs. An example follows. This performs the same function as the second example above. 

A 16-bit array signal, OUTBUS, of type BIT VECTOR has been assigned the binary value 1000111000111110. The signal could have been declared with either of the following statements.
