Abstract:
This volume provides a hands-on glimpse of the field of electrical engineering. The introduced applications utilize the NI ELVIS platform to explore concepts such as: circuits, power, analog sensing, and introductory analog signal processing such as signal generation, analog filtering, audio and music processing. These principals and technologies are introduced in a very practical way and are fundamental to many of the electronic devices we use today. Some examples include photodetection, analog signal (audio, light, temperature) level meter, and analog music equalizer.
The provided hands-on applications can each be performed within a 3-hour lab session and can be easily expanded into longer-duration design projects.
