Electronic Measurement Techniques

Electronic Measurement Techniques provides practical information concerning the techniques in electronic measurements and a working knowledge on how to adopt and use the appropriate measuring instruments. SI units are used as the unit of measurement in the book. The text contains chapters focusing on a variety of measurement techniques. The initial chapter discusses the system of measurements and principles used in electronic measurements. Subsequent chapters cover instruments for direct current measurement, electronic voltmeters, methods for the measurement of alternating currents and potential differences, and measurement of power. Chapters are also devoted to the elaboration of the construction of standards for comparison purposes and the measurement of non-electrical quantities. Engineers will find the book very useful.

Suitable for an introductory course or a second course in Instrumentation, this book includes: software-controlled measurements; time interval measurement when the two events occur arbitrarily, and to indicate the order of occurrence, and a practical set up for the time interval measurement; multi-phase sequence indicator; decibel meter; and more.

The Electronic Measurement Techniques manual provides an engaging guide to introductory electrical and computer engineering theory and measurement techniques. Students will benefit from the clear prose in the manual and the effective scaffolding of lab experiments. Instructors will appreciate the comprehensive nature of the manual and the "been there, done that" insights from the authors. The experiments bring students from their first experience with the measurement equipment through entry-level design problems. The book begins with an introduction to the fundamentals of measurement and follows with labs that reinforce the learning of core electrical engineering concepts. Students who follow the manual will work through an introduction to linear circuit analysis, filters, power electronics, and more. This comprehensive manual aims to effectively prepare students for a productive electrical and computer engineering career.

The book Electronic Instrumentation and Measurement has been written for the students of BE/BTech in Electronics and Communication Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, and Electronic Instrumentation Engineering. It explains the performance, operation and applications of the most important electronic measuring instruments, techniques and instrumentation methods that include both analog and digital instruments. The book covers a wide range of topics that deal with the basic measurement theory, measurement techniques, such as analog meter movements, digital instruments, power and energy measurement meters, AC and DC bridges, magnetic measurements, cathode ray oscilloscope, display devices and recorders, and transducers. It also explains generation and analysis of signals along with DC and AC potentiometers, and transformers. Key Features • Complete coverage of the subject as per the syllabi of most universities • Relevant illustrations provide graphical representation for in-depth knowledge • A large number of mathematical examples for maximum clarity of concepts • Chapter objectives at the beginning of each chapter for its overview • Chapter-end summary and exercises for quick review and to test your knowledge • A comprehensive index in alphabetical form for quick access to finer topics

In this edition, the book has been completely updated by adding new topics in various chapters. Besides this, two new chapters namely : "Microprocessors and Microcontrollers" (Chapter-13) and "Universities Questions (Latest) with Solutions" (Chapter-14) have been added to make the book still more useful to the readers.
