Sensor Sub-system Circuit
Coils are also used as induction
sensors.
• Placing ferromagnetic
cookware above the coil, its
measurable impedance
changes .
• Impedance change, affects
measurable power.
Kegan
18
Sensor Sub-system Circuit
A bridge rectifier and low pass filter
turns the AC signal across the coil into
a DC signal.
Kegan
19
Sensor Sub-system

The DC signal is fed into an analog to digital converter
to be processed by the microcontroller.

When the voltage across the coil drops below a
threshold, the LED turns on and a varying frequency
PWM is initiated.
