Questão de Língua Inglesa

Texto para a Questão 19 The block A consists of circuitry for the audible alarm, the wye hot wire flow sensor, the gas ID, the inspiratory and expiratory pressure transducers, the source gas pressure transducers, the exhaled flow sensor, the FiO2 cell, and communications with the UIM. A micro-controller is used to generate alarm waveforms for an compliant alarm. A super capacitor is used to provide a minimum of 120 seconds of power without wall AC or a battery. Analog circuitry is provided to signal condition the wye Hot Wire Flow Sensor signal and a 12 bit ADC is used to digitize the signal. A Flow Sensor Fail signal is provided to allow the Control Processor to determine when the flow sensor wire is broken. The Flow Sensor EEPROM is SPI bus compatible and is read at power up and when a Flow Sensor is connected. The air inlet fitting contains a resistor for determining which gas source is connected to the Air inlet, Air ( 5K ohm) or Heliox (10K ohm). The type of gas connected is determined with a resistor divider, one half of the divider is contained in a connector and the other half is located on the block A. The resistor contained in the connector is different for each gas source and therefore produces a different voltage output from the divider. The output of the divider is read via an ADC.
