| Language : | Langue française |
|
| 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). |
