Course detail
Electronic Measurement Systems
FEKT-BEMSAcad. year: 2014/2015
The course deals with the modern approach to the implementation of measurement - using and working with electronic measuring systems. It is focused on technological means of automation - standard interfaces, eliminating the measurement uncertainty, using the DSP in measurement. Deals also with selection of components used in measuring instruments.
