Sinopsis

This authoritative new book focuses on recent developments in the instrumentation for sending voltages and currents. It covers new trends and challenges in the field, such as measurements of biocurrents, the increased speed of the components for data taking, testing of computers and integrated circuits where the measurement of rapid voltage and current variations on a very small geometrical scale is necessary. The first chapter concentrates on recent methods to sense voltages and currents, while the rest of the book investigates the applied side, covering for instance electrical power and energy measurements. The main purpose of this volume is to illustrate commonly employed techniques rather than track the scientific evolution and merits and therefore mainly covers patent literature aimed at industrial applications. It is an exciting addition, justifying the series' claim to cover state-of-the-art developments in both the applied and theoretical fields of sensors and actuators. The measurement of voltages and currents is a common task in the field of electricity and electronics. From a technical point of view it is useful to identify schematically different steps of such a measurement. In a first step a voltage or a current is sensed, intermediate steps such as amplification, transmission and further treatment may follow to yield the result in the final step. Today in most cases microprocessors perform the final steps of such measurements. Analog-to digital converters digitise a voltage that is proportional to the value to be measured and a processor performs further computations and handles the storage and the display of the results. The prerequisite for such measurements are sensors or transducers that respond in a known way to the voltage or current to be measured. The emphasis of this book is put on recent developments of the instrumentation for sensing voltages and currents. Aside from the general trend towards smaller, cheaper and more reliable instrumentation, new demands have arisen. New applications, like measurements of biocurrents, ask for higher sensitivities. Computers and integrated circuits pose new challenges. To exploit the increased speed of the components for data taking, suitable sensors are required. The accuracy that can be achieved depends more than ever on the first step, the acquisition of the raw data. The influence of the measurement process on the results becomes more crucial. Testing of integrated circuits themselves is a completely new application. For such tests one has to measure rapid voltage and current variations on very small geometrical scales. Here, as well as in the traditional high voltage applications, contactless measurements play an important role. The organisation of this book is as follows: In the first chapter different methods to sense voltages and currents are described. For the sake of completeness most commonly used methods are mentioned, we concentrate, however, on those developed recently. The chapters address the subject from the side of different applications in which voltages and currents are sensed. Since the main purpose of this publication is to illustrate commonly employed techniques rather than to track the scientific evolution and merits in particular fields, in general those publications that illustrate a particular measurement principle best have been cited. The citation of a particular reference does therefore not imply that this is the first or most pertinent publication in the respective field.

The measurement of voltages and currents is a common task in the field of electricity and electronics.

Derecho a cancelaci�n

Si eres un consumidor puedes cancelar el presente contrato de acuerdo con lo indicado a continuaci�n. Son consumidores las personas f�sicas que act�en con un prop�sito ajeno a su actividad comercial, empresarial, oficio o profesi�n.

Documento de informaci�n al consumidor y usuario sobre el desistimiento

Derecho de desistimiento:

Tienes derecho a desistir del presente contrato en un plazo de 14 d�as naturales sin necesidad de justificaci�n.

El plazo de desistimiento expirar� a los 14 d�as naturales del d�a en que t� o un tercero que hayas indicado, distinto del transportista, adquiera la posesi�n material del �ltimo bien, componente o pieza.

Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, deber�s notificarnos a Chiron Media, 2 Lester Way, OX10 1DW, Wallingford, United Kingdom, 44 8008085306, de tu decisi�n de desistir del contrato a trav�s de una declaraci�n inequ�voca (por ejemplo, una carta enviada por correo postal, fax o correo electr�nico). Podr�s utilizar el modelo de formulario de desistimiento que figura a continuaci�n, aunque su uso no es obligatorio. Tienes asimismo la opci�n de cumplimentar y enviar electr�nicamente el modelo de formulario de desistimiento o cualquier otra declaraci�n inequ�voca a trav�s de nuestro sitio web a "Mis pedidos" en "Mi cuenta". Si recurres a esta opci�n, te comunicaremos sin demora en un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electr�nico) la recepci�n de dicho desistimiento.

Para cumplir el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que la comunicaci�n relativa al ejercicio por tu parte de este derecho sea enviada antes de que venza el plazo correspondiente.
