Synopsis:

Subject is devoted to distributed and centralized DAQ systems and to the design of their elements. Selected industrial interfaces and buses (CAN, Profibus, HART, Modbus, Ethernet), VXI/PXI systems, USB and wireless sensor networks (ZigBee, WiFi) are presented in detail in order to provide information required for efficient design of their components. Project-oriented laboratories provide students with practical experience in the implementation of modern DAQ systems.
