Intro to Bioinstrumentation

This course will go over the basic principles of instrumentation in particular for biomedical applications. The course is roughly divided into three sections: The first focuses on analog instrumentation including amplifiers, filters, and noise issues. The second focuses on digital circuitry with emphasis on sampling and aliasing, resolution as well as basic building blocks of digital circuits. The third focuses on electronic transducers and sensors such as piezoresistors, piezoelectricity, fluorescent detection.
