MT 3301 - Electromechanical Instrumentation2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
Measurement and control devices and their properties are examined. Electrical, mechanical, thermal, fluid flow and other measurement elements are described and tested. Static, dynamic and frequency response performance measures are applied to device operating characteristics. Analog signal conditioning methods are used. (prereq: ET 2550 )
