Materia: Instrumentación.

Tema: Sensors

This lecture discusses the conversion of information from the non-electrical world around us to an
electrical signal by means of sensors. The basic operating principles, characteristics and applications
of various sensors are discussed: resistive, capacitive, inductive, thermoelectric, and
semiconducting sensors. In the following lectures, these sensors will come back in context of the
readout electronics that are used to process their output signals.
