    The goal Introducing students with the hardware and software foundations of measurement systems. Provide the students with the ability to analyze, design and implement analog and digital interfacing circuits and to integrate computer-based measurement system. Training students to analyze the program and develop application software for data acquisition, signal processing and display of measurement data.
    The outcome Upon completion of this course, students should know how to: - Analyze and design analog and digital interfacing circuits for transducers and electronic measurement devices, - Develop LabVindows/CVI program for the data acquisition, signal processing and display of measurement results to PC.
