More specifically, students will be able to,
- Design, construct and test measurement circuits for the accurate measurement of signals (k3/4/5),
- Perform automated computer-assisted measurement and analysis using the GPIB interface (k3/4),
- Analyse and minimise the effects of conducted coupling mechanisms (inductive, capacitive, galvanic) on measurement and data lines (k4/5),
- Evaluate the effects of electromagnetic interference on measurement circuits and implement appropriate mitigation measures (k3/4),
- acquire and process signals with poor signal-to-noise ratio using lock-in amplifiers (k3/4),
- perform high-precision current measurements to determine high-impedance resistances and the smallest capacitances and analyse the measured values (k3/4),
- write measurement protocols according to scientific standards and document the measurement results (k5).
