A sensor generates an electrical signal that depends on the physical quantity we aim to measure. Achieving the desired performance is an iterative process that begins with finding suitable materials, sensing methods, and control parameters. A complete toolset to characterize the prototype with efficient workflows is crucial to keep up with the project timelines. In this webinar, Kıvanç Esat and Jim Phillips present the measurement requirements, discuss the essential tools, and explain best practices with examples to accelerate your testing.
You will learn:
- The essential measurement steps to find a sensor’s optimal operation conditions;
- Several control strategies, including Phase-locked Loops (PLL) and Pound-Drever-Hall (PDH);
- How efficient workflows with correct instruments enable sensing yottagrams and attonewtons.
