Description:
The materials for this Data Acquisition and Measurement course are provided by Maricopa Advanced Technology Education Center (MATEC). This course provides an overview of data acquisition and measurement for students pursuing an Associate of Applied Science in computer programming or information technology. Topics covered include Electrical and Electronic Measurement Principles; Survey of Common Test Instruments, Specifications, Applications, Measurement Examples; Systems of Instrumentation; Introduction to Systems, Data Acquisition Fundamentals; and Application Examples of Data Acquisition Systems. 

Contents:
Course materials include a Data Acquisition and Measurement PDF, lab activity guides, and related files. 

The 6-page Data Acquisition and Measurement PDF describes the traditional view and new systems view of digital courses and provides a detailed list of the materials included in this course.

The 9-page Introduction to Computer-Based Data Acquisition document is included and describes a lab activity. The purpose of this lab is to "familiarize the student with the basic principles of computer based data acquisition, data store, and display." The student guide features Systems Rationale, System Concepts, Learning Outcomes, Prerequisite Knowledge and Skills, Learning Objectives, and more.

The 10-page Temperature Measurement Using a Thermocouple document is included and describes a lab activity. The purpose of this lab is to "teach you to assemble, troubleshoot, and calibrate such a system for accurate temperature reporting." The student guide features Systems Rationale, System Concepts, Learning Outcomes, Prerequisite Knowledge and Skills, Learning Objectives, and more.

The 5-page Lab 3: Oscilloscope Operations document is included and describes a lab activity. The purpose of this lab is to "introduce(s) you to the basic theory and operation of a lab oscilloscope." The guide features Systems Rationale, System Concepts, Student Learning Outcomes, Prerequisite Knowledge and Skills, Learning Objectives, and more.

Additional course materials are divided into the following sections: ECG Lab, FPGA Beer Module, and Web Server and Projects. The ECG Lab folder includes two instructor guides for the Electrocardiogram Circuit lab project and related files. The purpose of this lab is to "introduce the student to biological electrical signals and how they can be captured." The instructor guide features Systems Rationale, System Concepts, Learning Outcomes, Prerequisite Knowledge and Skills, Learning Objectives, and more.

The FPGA Beer folder includes an instructor guide for the Operations of Pasteurization Process Control lab project and related sound files. The purpose of this lab is to "learn the use of Spartan 3E FPGA development board from Xilinx and how to create the hardware connections between the development board and your PC." The instructor guide features Systems Rationale, System Concepts, Learning Outcomes, Prerequisite Knowledge and Skills, Learning Objectives, and more. 

The Web Server and Projects folder includes an instructor guide for the Building a Web Server for I/O Control lab project, related resources, and five separate projects. The purpose of this lab is to "give an instructor the necessary information and instructions for setting up a web server through which server I/O can be controlled." The instructor guide features Systems Rationale, System Concepts, Learning Outcomes, Prerequisite Knowledge and Skills, Learning Objectives, and more.

For orientation purposes Data Acquisition and Measurement.pdf is included as a separate attachment and provides a detailed description of the course.
