In this book Ian Sinclair provides the practical know-how required by technician engineers, systems designers and students.

The focus is firmly on understanding the technologies and their different applications, not a mathematical approach.

The result is a highly readable text which provides a unique introduction to the selection and application of sensors, transducers and switches, and a grounding in the practicalities of designing with these devices.

The devices covered encompass heat, light and motion, environmental sensing, sensing in industrial control, and signal-carrying and non-signal switches.

Audience
Technician engineers, circuit designers, advanced hobbyists
