Regarding Core Subjects of Instrumentation

Most of Instrumentation students needs help in core subjects of GATE exam.

I feel, we should do following things


  • In NPTEL, free course on available on Industrial Instrumentation and Automation. Please follow those lectures (Based on Syllabus of GATE) 
  • For Transducers, one can follow 

 
        Ref Book: (1)  A course in Electrical and Electronic Measurement and                    
                             Instrumentation BY A.K.Sawhney
                          (2) Instrumentation, Measurement and Analysis by 
                                B C Nakal  Chaudhary 
  • For Analytical, optical and biomedical,
  • Ref: (1) Principles of Instrumental Analysis, Skoog, Holler, Nieman, Saunders College
    Publishing, 1998
    (2) Instrumental Methods of Analysis by Willard
     
    (3) Handbook of Biomedical Instrumentation By R. S. Khandpur. TMH  (Examples, given indirectly) 
  • For optical, please see blog...

Transducer: piezoelectric transducer

Piezoelectric Sensor Piezoelectric Transducer   It is example of active and passive transducer.  Piezo-electric effect Direct Effect: generating an electric charge when subjecting it to a strain Indirect Effect: Generating a mechanical strain in response to an applied electric field   Piezoelectric Material:  Natural :  Tourmaline; Quartz; Topaz; Rochelle salt  Synthetic: Barium Titanate (BaTiO 3 ); Lead Zirconate (PbZio 3 ); Polymer Films (Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), (-CH2-CF2-)n). Applications:  Mechanical variables such as pressure, force and acceleration.  Gas Lighters Quartz clocks Loudspeaker Signal Conditioning Circuit: Charge Amplifier  Formula for piezoelectric transducer
