This volume examines sensors that convert physical variables (ie temperature, speed, light and chemical concentration) into electric signals so they can be measured and used. The book describes a a broad range of sensors, including electronic circuit requirements. It aims to provide engineers with the actual specifications for several commercial sensors which are compiled in tables, and emphasizes the advantages and limitations of each sensing method. It includes several worked-out circuit design examples and references at the end of each chapter.
