Engineer’s Guide to Accurate
Sensor Measurements
Sensors convert physical phenomenon such as light, temperature, or pressure into a measurable electrical signal. Before the sensor output can be digitized, you may need signal conditioning and additional processing to produce a signal that a DAQ device can effectively measure. The Engineer’s Guide to Accurate Sensor Measurements helps you:
-
Understand required signal conditioning for different sensor types
-
Implement software processing such as linearization and scaling to display data in a meaningful format
-
Examine best practices for minimizing impact from sources of error such as electrical noise and temperature fluctuations
