In this text on electronic measurement and instrumentation, Dr. Klaassen concentrates on theoretical principles relevant to all measurements for electrical, thermal and mechanical systems. Dr. Klaassen follows a system science approach rather than employing the more common method of instrument description. The author deals with all the fundamental aspects of measurement, including theory of measurement, systems of units, standards, measurement methods, data acquisition, sampling, multiplexing and aliasing. He also covers more practical aspects of measurement, including transducers, interference, noise, AD and DA conversion and instrument data busses. This book is targeted at engineers and scientists in both industry and academia. It will be of particular interest to those active in the fields of electrical, mechanical and control engineering and will be widely used as a text for undergraduate courses.

First Sentence:
The contents of this book on measurement and its applications can be divided into three sections: a general section (Chapter 1), a section in which we restrict ourselves to the measuring of physical quantities (Chapter 2) and a section in which we restrict ourselves even further to electrical and electronic measurements (Chapters 3 and 4). Read the first page Key Phrases - Statistically Improbable Phrases (SIPs): (learn more)
inductive injection, characteristic attenuator, capacitive injection, servo recorder, electronic measurement systems, switching detector, influencing error, time base signal, order hold circuit, quantisation error, null detector, multiplicative disturbances, measurement object, interference voltage, cardinal measurement, input transducers, excess deviation, relative inaccuracy, quantisation noise, analogue display, energetic phenomenon, noise matching, null indicator, allowable transformations, additive disturbance New!
