Electronic Instrumentation and Measurements (2nd Edition)

Electronic Instrumentation and Measurements (Second Edition)
By David A. Bell

Designed as a textbook for undergraduate students of electrical, electronics, and instrumentation disciplines, this book presents a comprehensive treatment of the operation, performance, applications, and limitations of both digital and analog instruments normally encountered in an electronics laboratory. Since publication of the first edition, analog instruments have largely been replaced by digital instruments in the laboratory environment, and this second edition responds by providing the most complete treatment of digital instruments available at the time. Starting with SI units, dimensions, and standards, the text works through measurement errors before covering electromechanical instruments and analog electronic instruments (VOMs), then devotes dedicated chapters to digital instrument basics, digital voltmeters, and frequency meters, with instrument calibration and resistance/inductance/capacitance measurement techniques covered in detail throughout. The specialized instruments explored in the latter half of the book include analog and digital storage oscilloscopes, signal generators, waveform analyzers, and graphic recording instruments, alongside dedicated chapters on magnetic measurements, transducers, and telemetry.

Topics commonly covered include:

• Measurement systems, units, and standards
• Measurement errors
• Classical electromechanical instruments (ammeters, voltmeters, ohmmeters)
• Analog electronic instruments
• Digital instrument basics, digital voltmeters, and frequency meters
• Resistance, inductance, and capacitance measurement techniques
• Analog and digital storage oscilloscopes
• Signal generators and waveform analyzers
• Instrument calibration, power/energy measurement
• Magnetic measurements, transducers, and telemetry

Key features:

• Most complete treatment of digital instruments available at the time of this edition
• Dedicated chapters on both classical/analog and modern digital instrumentation
• Comprehensive coverage of oscilloscopes, signal generators, and specialized lab instruments
• Additional chapters on magnetic measurements, transducers, and telemetry for broader scope
• Long-standing standard text for electronics laboratory instrumentation courses

Perfect for:

• Electrical, electronics, and instrumentation engineering undergraduates
• Students taking a dedicated electronic instrumentation and measurements laboratory course
• Students needing both analog and digital instrument operating knowledge
• Faculty teaching a comprehensive instrumentation and measurement course
