Bioinstrumentation

This short book provides basic information about bioinstrumentation and electric circuit theory. Many biomedical instruments use a transducer or sensor to convert a signal created by the body into an electric signal. Author John Enderle's goal with this book is for students to develop expertise in electric circuit theory as applied to bioinstrumentation.He begins with a description of variables used in circuit theory, charge, current, voltage, power and energy. Next, Kirchhoff's current and voltage laws are introduced, followed by resistance, simplifications of resistive circuits, and voltage and current calculations. Circuit analysis techniques are then presented, followed by inductance and capacitance, and solutions of circuits using the differential equation method. Finally, the operational amplifier and time varying signals are introduced.Enderle, John is the author of 'Bioinstrumentation ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781598291322 and ISBN 1598291327.
