Acoustic Wind Sensor

Ultrasonic Wind Sensor
- Updates:
- Right before the CDR, made the realization that instead of going through the trouble of offsetting the received signal and using a threshold detector, we could keep the received signal centered at 0V and use a zero-crossing detector. This will simplify our design by quite a bit (we would forego the Schmitt trigger, threshold detectors, and possibly the amplifier). Also, the zero-crossing detector is relatively simple to build.
- Experiments from 4/12/17:
- Delay 12.5us using nops:
- Not very reliable, a better approach would be to try and modify the timer's prescaler and initial value to achieve a 12.5us trigger.
- Receiver response when sending just 1 pulse:
- DigitalWrite() vs. fastDigitalWrite():
- digitalWrite() rise ~
- digitalWriteFast() rise ~22ns
