PHY 5740 - Sensors and Transducers (4)

When Offered: Spring
This applications-oriented course covers the integration of transducers into sensor-based systems. Students will integrate transducers with signal conditioning circuitry and will develop proficiency in interfacing the conditioned signals with data acquisition hardware, using programs such as the National Instruments LabVIEW software program. Sensors covered include, but are not limited to, temperature, pressure, optical, and humidity.
Prerequisite: PHY 5730 or equivalent.
Lecture three hours, laboratory three hours.
