Smart Sensor Systems (SSS' 2011)

EuroTraining QL

A Four-day EuroTraining Quality Labeled (QL) Approved Engineering Course (ET4233)

11- 14 April, 2011 Delft, The Netherlands

General Information About the Course

The Smart Sensor Systems Course is a post-graduate engineering course. The lecturers are given by top experts from academia and industry thus ensuring a good mix between recent developments and established practice. The prerequisite for the course is a basic knowledge of electrical circuits and systems. The course will be taught in English. After the course, each attendee will receive a certificate of attendance.

Short Description

The design and development of smart sensor systems is described. After a general overview, various aspects of sensor systems are discussed: sensor principles, tandem transducers, smart analog interfaces, A/D conversion, bus interfaces, DSPs and microcontrollers. A systematic approach towards the design of smart sensor systems is presented. The lecturers are augmented by case studies and hands-on demonstrations.
