  • OPTICALLY-PUMPED MAGNETOMETER (OPM) WITH AN OPM CONNECTOR THAT MITIGATES ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) AND STORES OPM OPERATIONAL DATA
    Publication number: 20230243902
    Abstract: Various embodiments comprise an apparatus to mitigate Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) buildup. In some examples, the apparatus comprises an Optically Pumped Magnetometer (OPM) and a connector. The connector is operatively coupled to the OPM. The OPM is configured to sense magnetic fields. The connector comprises a protective shorting link. The connector is configured to disconnect the protective shorting link in response to coupling and to connect the protective shorting link in response to decoupling.

  • Optically-pumped magnetometer (OPM) with an OPM connector that mitigates electrostatic discharge (ESD) and stores OPM operational data
    Patent number: 11630170
    Abstract: An Optically Pumped Magnetometer (OPM) system is configured to characterize a magnetic field. The OPM system comprises an OPM sensor that is coupled to an OPM cable that is coupled to an OPM connector that is detachably coupled to an OPM controller. The OPM connector stores OPM operational data. The OPM controller reads the OPM operational data when the OPM connector is coupled to an OPM controller. The OPM controller generates sensor control signals based on the OPM operational data and transfers the control signals to the OPM sensor. The OPM sensors characterize the magnetic field in response to the sensor control signals and transfer output signals that characterize the magnetic field to the OPM controller. The OPM controller models the magnetic field based on the output signals and transfers new OPM operational data to OPM connector. The OPM connector stores the new OPM operational data in the memory.
