Desenvolvimento de hardware para a medição de parâmetros de temperatura e umidade em uma incubadora neonatal

Abstract

This paper presents the development of a control and validation hardware for neonatal incubators. The developed circuit is installed in the incubator located in the Electrical Engineering Course’s Laboratory of Control of the Federal University of Piauí - UFPI, and constitutes an important dynamic system for the development of control and data processing techniques for undergraduate and masters courses, focusing on the disciplines of Control, Instrumentation and Automation. The prototype created takes into account the requests of the IEC 60601-2-19 standard about the minimum requirements for hardware safety certification and equipment control for incubators. This project presents as result, two circuits, one being responsible for the processing and data acquisition and the other the control drive of the heating load. In addition, this work contains photos, schematics and graphics related to the system created
