Emphasis is placed on how industrial grade sensors and transducers function and upon how they are interfaced into control systems. Study topics include: transducers and sensors for light, heat, motion, pressure, and position control; switching devices; input and output signal conditioning; continuous, closed-loop, and proportional integral derivative process control; and safety. This course is not open to students who have received credit for, or are enrolled in EL 133, ET 133, or CEL 133.
