Analog and Digital Circuits for Electronic Control System Applications: Using the TI MSP430 Microcontroller
暫譯: 電子控制系統應用的類比與數位電路：使用 TI MSP430 微控制器

Description:

In system design (in particular, industrial
control systems), there is, and has been, a continuous need to sense real-world analog quantities (such as temperature, pressure, or humidity), make computations with them, and then perform some action with the result. In today's systems, the computations need to be made at increased speeds and the accuracy with which the computations must be made, even as the speed increases, must be the same or higher as time progresses. The advent of the microcontroller, and its extensive use in all types of control applications, many of them battery powered, has led to new control system design approaches. Rather
than computing using analog quantities, the analog quantities are sensed, conditioned, and converted to digital, processed digitally, and then converted back to an analog output, which is then used to perform the necessary output action. This practical textbook covers the latest techniques in microcontroller-based control system design. It is aimed at engineering students and engineers new to working with microcontrollers. It covers the
fundamentals of:
1. Sensors and the electrical signals they output.
2. The design and application of the electronic circuits that receive and condition (change or modify) the sensor analog signals.
3. The design and application of the circuits that convert analog signals to digital and digital signals to analog.
4. The makeup and operation of a microcontroller and how to program it.
5. The application of electronic circuits for system power control.
The book, written by an experienced microcontroller engineer and textbook author, is suitable for community college students, technical school students, technicians and engineers just being introduced to microcontroller system design. It is an introductory book, focusing on real-world implementation of a basic control system, with real-world circuit examples. Readers will find clearly written discussion coupled with lots of illustrations. They will also find worked-out examples that illustrate principles within each chapter and quizzes to aid understanding. Besides these specifics, a hands-on project, suitable for an electronics microcontroller laboratory course, using the popular and low-cost TI MSP430 microcontroller, is discussed in detail.
The accompanying CD-ROM contains microcontrollers application notes, code for the software examples, and problem solutions.
