Practical Interfacing in the Laboratory
Using a PC for Instrumentation,
Data Analysis, and Control
This text describes in practical terms how to use a desk-puter to monitor and control labora-
tory experiments. The author clearly explains how to design electronic circuits and puter
programs to sense, analyze, and display real-world quantities, including displacement, temperature,
force, sound, light, and biomedical potentials. The book includes numerous laboratory exercises and
appendices that provide practical information on puter architecture and interfacing, includ-
plete circuit diagrams ponent lists. Topics include analog amplification and signal
processing, digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital conversion, electronic sensors and actuators, dig-
ital and analog interfacing circuits, programming, and data analysis and control. Only a very basic
knowledge of electronics is assumed, making it ideal for college-level laboratory courses and for
practicing engineers and scientists.
Stephen E. Derenzo is Professor-in-Residence in the Department of Electrical Engineering -
puter Sciences at UC Berkeley and a Senior Scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
He has been teaching courses on electronic circuits, electronic transducers, and puter in-
terfacing for over 15 years and this book was developed from those courses. He has authored and
co-authored over 150 technical publications, was awarded the 1992 Annual Merit Award and the
2001 Radiation Instrumentation Outstanding Achievement Award of the Nuclear and Plasma Sciences
Society of the IEEE, and is a Fellow of the IEEE.
