PHYS250

This course is intended for science, engineering and computer science majors. The LabView software package has become a standard in academic and industrial environments for instrumentation control and data processing. Basic principles of LabView programming will be studied. Our focus will be on user interface, data structures, file input/output, hardware interfacing, data analysis and signal processing. Students should be able to develop basic virtual instruments (LabView Programs), and design and analyze data acquisition systems in LabView environment. We will be applying programming techniques to control some standard measuring instruments such as oscilloscopes, trandsducers. Students are expected to build self-learning skills after a successful completion of the course which is essential in science and engineering. Lab Fee.
