The Newnes Know It All Series takes the best of what our authors
have written to create hard-working desk references that will be an
engineer's first port of call for key information, design
techniques and rules of thumb. Guaranteed not to gather dust on a
shelf
Field Application engineers need to master a wide area of topics to
excel. The "Test and Measurement Know It All" covers every angle
including Machine Vision and Inspection, Communications Testing,
Compliance Testing, along with Automotive, Aerospace, and Defense
testing.
A 360-degree view from our best-selling authors
Topics include the Technology of Test and Measurement, Measurement
System Types, and Instrumentation for Test and Measurement.
The ultimate hard-working desk reference; all the essential
information, techniques and tricks of the trade in one volume"
Without sensors most electronic applications would not exist-they
perform a vital function, namely providing an interface to the real
world. The importance of sensors, however, contrasts with the
limited information available on them. Today's smart sensors,
wireless sensors, and microtechnologies are revolutionizing sensor
design and applications. This volume is an up-to-date and
comprehensive sensor reference guide to be used by engineers and
scientists in industry, research, and academia to help with their
sensor selection and system design. It is filled with hard-to-find
information, contributed by noted engineers and companies working
in the field today. The book will offer guidance on selecting,
specifying, and using the optimum sensor for any given application.
The editor-in-chief, Jon Wilson, has years of experience in the
sensor industry and leads workshops and seminars on sensor-related
topics.
In addition to background information on sensor technology,
measurement, and data acquisition, the handbook provides detailed
information on each type of sensor technology, covering:
-technology fundamentals
-sensor types, w/ advantages/disadvantages
-manufacturers
-selecting and specifying sensors
-applicable standards (w/ urls of related web sites)
-interfacing information, with hardware and software info
-design techniques and tips, with design examples
-latest and future developments
The handbook also contains information on the latest MEMS and
nanotechnology sensor applications. In addition, a CD-ROM will
accompany the volume containing a fully searchable pdf version of
the text, along with various design tools and useful software.
*The onlycomprehensive book on sensors available!

design examples, standards, hardware and software interfacing
information, and manufacturer pros/cons to help make the best
sensor selection for any design
*Covers sensors from A to Z- from basic technological fundamentals,
to cutting-edge info. on the latest MEMS and the hottest
nanotechnology applications
