Fundamentals of instrumentation and measurement /

Instrumentation and Measurement presents the general principles of instrumentation processes. The book explains the theoretical analysis of physical phenomena used by standard sensors and transducers to transform a physical value into an electrical signal. The preprocessing of these signals through...
