Measurement Data Acquisition book covers all aspects of the measuring chain

HBM is giving away a limited number of copies of its pocket-sized ‘Measurement Data Acquisition’ book, which gives detailed information on the electrical measurement of mechanical and physical quantities, covering every aspect of the measuring chain.

The book first introduces the importance of measurement technology and looks at the technical challenges that are involved in successful measurement and data acquisition. It reveals important aspects of connecting various types of transducers such as platinum resistance thermometers and inductive displacement transducers.

Specific aspects of the measurement channels are discussed including carrier frequency amplifiers, digital filtering and the use of electronic data sheets in the transducers. The structure of a measurement system is also considered and the book gives pointers on data storage, communication interfaces and visualization.   The technical aspects of developing measurement systems for high channel numbers are also discussed since these demand additional considerations.

The offer is only available until Wednesday, 31^st July, and only a limited number of copies are available. The book will be despatched on a first-come first-served basis so make sure you claim your free book today by visiting www.hbm.com and completing the brief on-line form.
