Name: Introduction to Benchtop Equipment and Data Acquisition
ID: m13771
Language: English (en)
Summary: Many sensors produce analog (continuous) electrical signals. Once recorded, these signals are scaled to determine the magnitude of the physical phenomenon. In this lab, you will learn about some common methods for recording and displaying voltage signals. Your focus will not be on any particular sensing technology. In the process of performing the lab exercises, you will learn about hardware and software that you will use throughout the semester.
