Aim of the course

To familiarize with the basic methods and measuring instruments.

To familiarize with the basic operations of the analog, analog - digital and digital-to-analog on measuring signals.

To familiarize with the basic types of sensors and measuring systems functional blocks.

To shape skills to perform simple measurement tasks.

Prerequisites

Experimental techniques I

Scope

Principles of planning the instrumental realization of the experiment. Nature of the research object and assumed objective of the experiment – their influence on the choice of measurement method and procedure, and  measurement instruments and systems.

Basic measurement methods and measuring instruments. Metrological properties of measuring instruments. Selected analogue electronic instruments.

Digital processing of measurement signals. Sampling, quantisation and coding. Analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters. Digital measuring instruments.

Measurements of selected electric and non-electric quantities. General characteristics of sensors. Principle of operation and properties of selected sensors. Smart sensors.

General characteristics of measurement systems. Types and configurations  of measurement systems. Basic functional blocks of measurement systems. Converters and system instruments, sub-systems for measuring Signac acquisition, fieldbus, interface, system controller.
