Course Description: Sensors and Measurement Chains
This course introduces students to the fundamental principles of sensors and measurement systems used in industrial and automation environments. It focuses on the structure and operation of measurement chains, from physical quantity acquisition to signal processing and interpretation.
Students will learn how different types of sensors operate, including temperature, pressure, level, flow, displacement, and speed sensors. The course also covers the essential metrological characteristics of sensors such as sensitivity, accuracy, linearity, and dynamic response, which are critical for proper sensor selection and usage.
A significant part of the course is dedicated to signal conditioning techniques, including the use of operational amplifiers, instrumentation amplifiers, bridge circuits, and linearization methods. These elements are essential for converting raw sensor outputs into usable signals for control and monitoring systems.
Through theoretical explanations and practical examples, students will develop the ability to analyze measurement systems, design basic conditioning circuits, and choose appropriate sensors for real-world engineering applications.
This course is essential for students in automatic control and industrial engineering, providing the foundation required for instrumentation, process control, and embedded measurement systems.
