| Course contents : | Physical principles of resistive, inductive, capacitive, piezoelectric, magnetic, thermoelectric, ultrasonic and optoelectronic (micro)sensors. Interface electronic circuits. | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Course objective : | The aims of this course are to: - understand the physical principles of sensors as well as their respective interface electronic circuits; - develop practical skills as well as the ability to design and use various sensors; - to develop an awareness of various sources of noise and errors using sensors (e.g. industrial / biomedical applications and severe environmental conditions). | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Prerequisites : | --- | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Workshops : | Practical courses involve laboratory experiments (5 sessions) about position, speed, pression, temperature and displacement sensors. | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Organization : | Theoretical lectures (30 hours) : 2nd semester. Practical courses (30 hours) : schedule to be determined depending on the measurement lab vacancies | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Written notes : | Course material is available at the "Centrale des cours de l'A.E.E.S." Reference book : "Les capteurs en instrumentation industrielle", G. Asch et collaborateurs (Dunod 1999). | ||||||||
| |||||||||
| Assessment : | Throughout the year : written tests during laboratory sessions, laboratory reports June : oral exam (theory + lab). | ||||||||
