Advanced Instrumentation and Computer I/O Design (PDF)

Written by an expert in the field of instrumentation and
measurement device design, this book employs comprehensive
electronic device and circuit specifications to design custom
defined-accuracy instrumentation and computer interfacing systems
with definitive accountability to assist critical applications.

Advanced Instrumentation and Computer I/O Design, Second
Edition begins by developing an understanding of
sensor-amplifier-filter signal conditioning design methods, enabled
by device and system mathematical models, to achieve conditioned
signal accuracies of interest and follow-on computer data
conversion and reconstruction functions. Providing complete
automated system design analyses that employ the Analysis Suite
computer-assisted engineering spreadsheet, the book then expands
these performance accountability methods--coordinated with
versatile and evolving hierarchical subprocesses and control
architectures--to overcome difficult contemporary process
automation challenges combining both quantitative and qualitative
methods. It then concludes with a taxonomy of computer interfaces
and standards including telemetry, virtual, and analytical
instrumentation.

Advanced Instrumentation and Computer I/O Design, Second
Edition offers:

* Updated chapters incorporating the latest electronic devices
and system applications

* Improved accuracy of the design models between their
theoretical derivations and actual measured results

* End-of-chapter problems based on actual industry, laboratory,
and aerospace system designs

* Multiple real-world case studies performed for technology
enterprises

* Instrumentation Analysis Suite for computer I/O system
design

* A separate solutions manual

Written for international engineering practitioners who design
and implement industrial process control systems, laboratory
instrumentation, medical electronics, telecommunications, and
embedded computer systems, this book will also prove useful for
upper-undergraduate and graduate-level electrical engineering
students.
