Principles of Electronic Instrumentation and Measurement

Principles of Electronic Instrumentation and Measurement By Howard M. Berlin and Frank C. Getz

A widely used electronics course reference, spanning fourteen chapters and covering the working principles, construction, calibration, and application of the instruments used to make electrical and electronic measurements. Building from measurement units and error/accuracy fundamentals, the text moves through noise reduction and grounding/shielding techniques before covering the operation of meters, bridges, transducers, and a range of specialized measuring instruments, aiming to give students a solid working understanding of the electronic measurements and measuring instruments used in industry. Long adopted directly into university electronics curricula as a core course text, it pairs measurement theory with the practical instrument knowledge students need before entering a lab or industrial setting.

Topics commonly covered include:

• Units, standards, and measurement error/accuracy

• Noise reduction, grounding, and shielding

• DC and AC meters (ammeters, voltmeters, ohmmeters)

• Electrodynamometer and PMMC instrument movements

• Bridges and impedance measurement

• Oscilloscopes and time-base circuits

• Transducers and strain gages

• Frequency counters, logic analyzers, and digital instrumentation

• Signal generators and waveform analysis

Key features:

• Fourteen chapters spanning nearly 470 pages of instrumentation theory and application

• Strong grounding in noise, grounding, and shielding practice alongside instrument theory

• Widely adopted directly into university electronics/instrumentation course syllabi

• Balanced coverage of both analog (PMMC, electrodynamometer) and modern digital instruments

• Long-standing standard reference in electronic instrumentation education since 1988

Perfect for:

• Electrical and electronics engineering students taking an instrumentation and measurement course

• Students needing grounding/shielding and noise-reduction practical knowledge

• Students studying both classical analog meters and modern digital instruments

• Faculty teaching a dedicated electronic instrumentation and measurement course
