Inhaltsangabe

For every electronics professional, Electronic Test Instruments: Analog and Digital Measurements offers a thorough survey of the field of electronics instrumentation: devices and techniques, digital and analog. KEY TOPICS: Witte introduces basic measurement theory, along with commonly used electronic test equipment -- including meters, signal sources, oscilloscopes, frequency counters, power supplies, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers and logic analyzers. He presents detailed examples of applying each type of equipment in real-world applications, emphasizing basic functionality and guidance on choosing the instrument most likely to obtain a valid measurement. He offers a unified treatment of both analog and digital devices, explaining their commonalities and differences, while presenting up-to-the-minute coverage of the measurement techniques required by today's advanced digital systems. MARKET: For all engineers, technicians, and students who understand basic electronics and want a deeper understanding of electronic measurements.

Electronic Test Instruments: Analog and Digital Measurements, Second Edition offers a thorough, unified, up-to-date survey of the entire field of electronic instrumentation: instruments and techniques, digital and analog.

Robert A. Witte first introduces basic measurement theory, then covers each type of commonly used electronic test equipment. Using detailed examples, Witte shows how these systems are applied in real-world applications, introducing core functionality and showing how to choose the right instrument for each task. This new second edition has been updated throughout, reflecting the latest technologies and presenting extensive new coverage of digital oscilloscopes and power supplies.

• Introduces essential measurement theory and explains its relationship to practical measurements
• Covers all mainstream test instruments, including meters, signal sources, oscilloscopes, frequency counters, power supplies, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, logic probes, and logic analyzers
• Presents circuit models and conceptual block diagrams that clarify the behavior of complex circuits and instruments
• Explains key commonalities and differences between digital and analog instrumentation from the user's standpoint
• Introduces advanced circuit concepts and techniques that help users achieve higher quality measurements
• Illuminates important concepts such as loading effect, grounding, and bandwidth
