Description
Microcontroller-Based Temperature Monitoring and Control is an essential and practical guide for all engineers involved in the use of
microcontrollers in measurement and control systems. The book provides design principles and application case studies backed up with
sufficient control theory and electronics to develop your own systems. It will also prove invaluable for students and experimenters seeking
real-world project work involving the use of a microcontroller.
Techniques for the application of microcontroller-based control systems
are backed up with the basic theory and mathematics used in these designs, and various digital control techniques are discussed with
reference to digital sample theory.
The first part of the book covers temperature sensors and their use in measurement, and includes
the latest non-invasive and digital sensor types. The second part covers sampling procedures, control systems and the application of
digital control algorithms using a microcontroller. The final chapter describes a complete microcontroller-based temperature control
system, including a full software listing for the programming of the controller.
Audience:
Electronic / control systems design engineers, electronic engineering undergraduates (esp. project work).
