Objectives Students know and understand the basics of measurement and sensor technology based on the measurement chain and can apply them to simple tasks. They are able to:

  • find suitable instruments, methods and sensors for a given measurement task as well as to evaluate and understand their application range and limits
  • explain and check the function of electronic measuring circuits
  • determine the measurement uncertainty of a measurement system
Subject
  • Introduction: the measurement chain, characterization of measurement systems, measurement signals
  • Measurement result and measurement uncertainty
  • Measurement of electrical quantities: current, voltage and power
  • Measurement of resistances and impedances, bridge circuits
  • Measuring circuits and operational amplifiers as measuring amplifiers
  • Measurement of non-electrical quantities (position, angle, speed, acceleration, strain, force, temperature, pressure and flow)
  • Resistive, capacitive, magnetic and active sensors and their sensor effects
  • Time and frequency measurement
  • Digital measurement technology: sampling, digital-to-analogue and analogue-to-digital converters
  • Measuring devices (oscilloscope, multimeter) and computer-aided data acquisition
Criteria for evaluation Written and/or oral exam
