Introduction to mechatronics and measurement systems" provides an accessible overview of the evolving field of mechtronics. David g. Alciatore and michael b. Histand have taken careful steps to present measurement systems and electronics, which are fundamental to understanding mechatronic systems. This second edition features a new chapter that presents microcontroller programming and interfacing. In addition to analysis techniques, design considerations are presented throughout the text. The text's numerous illustrations, examples, and problems provide an opportunity to see and apply mechatronics to actual problems encountered in engineering practice. This text has been tested over several years to ensure accuracy.
