Holder(s) :  Philippe Vanderbemden
Language :  Langue française
Course contents :  Preliminaries: terminology and instrument specifications, passive components, basic interfacing circuits, voltmeter and ammeter circuits, Null methods, Wheatstone bridge, operational amplifier measurement circuits, A/D converters, measurements in multi-phase circuits, interference problems and interference rejection, dynamical instruments, oscilloscope, digital multimeters, data acquisition systems and I/O interfaces.
Course objective :  The aims of this course are to:
- understand the theoretical and practical considerations involved in electrical measurement systems and methods;
- develop practical skills as well as the ability to conduct and evaluate electrical measurement experiments;
- appreciate the various sources of measurement errors and understand how to minimize them in order to make successful electrical measurements.
Prerequisites :  The "Circuits électriques" course (ELEC0053-1) should be attended the same year (if not, previously).
Workshops :  Practical courses involve laboratory experiments (6 sessions) and exercises.
Organization :  Theoretical lectures (30 hours) and practical courses (30 hours) : 1st semester.
Written notes :  The course material (theoretical part + practical part) is available at the "Centrale des cours de l'AEES"
Assessment :  Throughout the year : written tests during laboratory sessions , laboratory reports, + 1 test of exercices.

January : oral exam.
