I'm pretty sure that don't have any ADC's with this gain. It should be +/- 10V for 16 bits.

Jenne told us that the ADC was +/- 2V for 16 bits so our calibration is wrong. Since, the ADC is +/- 10V for 16 bits we need to change our calibration and now we can also use the purple STS breakout box.

New calibration for Guralp:
ADC: 216counts = 20V Hence, calibration of ADC is (215x0.1) counts/V.
GURALP
Sensitivity = 800 V/ms-1
(215 x 0.1) counts/V x 800 V/ms-1 = 2621440 counts/ms-1 -----> 3.8147e-07 ms-1/count
Calibration = 3.8147e-07 ms-1/count
Using the above calibration we obtain the following plot:
When we compare this plot with the old plot (see here) we see that in our calibration, we have got a factor of 10 less than the old plot. We do not know the gain of the Guralp. If we assume this missing 10 factor to be the gain of Guralp then we can get the same calibration as the old plot. But is it correct to do so? |
