Electronic Sensors

Make a stand-alone weather data recorder to collect air pressure, air temperature, and humidity data using only an Arduino, SD-card, LCD display, and solar power. Start with that base data. Then easily extend your project to include more such as an XBee radio and sensors for air quality and radiation. Chunyin has years of experience as a researcher in meteorology and oceanography. The projects in this book are based on actual deployable weather data recorders used for collegiate and professional applications. These weather recorders were deployed over coastal water and lands including the Arctic. And you can deploy your own finished model in your backyard, school yard, roof top, or even in the field to collect data at programmed intervals.

To support the textbook “Electronic Measurements: Measurement Theory, Circuits and Sensors”, this book contains insightful questions and answers. The questions are organised in the same chapters as the accompanying textbook. In addition, two projects are offered where the reader can make sensors with simple office materials and a multimeter. By executing these projects, the basic concepts from the measurement theory will be encountered.

This book is based on the 18 tutorials presented during the 29th workshop on Advances in Analog Circuit Design. Expert designers present readers with information about a variety of topics at the frontier of analog circuit design, with specific contributions focusing on analog circuits for machine learning, current/voltage/temperature sensors, and high-speed communication via wireless, wireline, or optical links. This book serves as a valuable reference to the state-of-the-art, for anyone involved in analog circuit research and development.
