Purpose • Mission •Main target
The course "Electric and electronic measurements" is dedicated to studying and for practice of measurement of the main electric quantities. The balance in studying of this domain is realized between
the necessary background knowledge about the physical quantities and the measurement methods based on dedicated measurement instruments and systems, also between the electric, electronic and computer based techniques.
Course specific targets:
- Increasing the students capacity in understanding the measurement process as an essential link in studying of all phenomena.
- Developing their ability in investigation and knowing of the reality with small disturbance.
- To appreciate in a quantitative manner the correlation degree between measured values and true values, the significance of the errors in an experiment and to accept the uncertainties as inherent.
- The design of the instruments based on electronic devices and tools as well as the understanding and modeling of the instrumentation set-up able to measure electrical quantities.
