“LINGAYAS INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY” PRACTICAL FILE OF “ELECTRONIC MEASURMENT AND INSTRUMENTATION” SUBMITTED BY: INDEX S.No. EXPERIMENTS DATE SIGNATURE EXPERIMENT NO. 1 AIM: Measurement of displacement using LVDT APPARATUS: LVDT trainer kit, multimeter . THEORY: the basic construction of differential transformer is shown in fig .at three different core positions. The linear variable differential transformer consists of a primary and 2 secondary coils,axially spaced & wound on a cylindrical coil former,with rod shaped magnetic core positioned a preffered centrally inside a the coil assembly providing a preffered path for magnetic flux linking the coil . the displacement to be measured is transferred to the magnetic core through suitable linkages.When 1ry is energized with an a/c carrier signal wave,voltage is induced in each 2ndrysection, exact value depending upon position of magnetic core w.r.to the centre of coil assembly.If coil is symmetrically placed(electrically) w.r.to 2 2ndry coils,equal voltages are induced in 2ndry coils ,when these 2 coil output are connected in opposition,the magnitude of resultant voltage tend to 0 value. Such a balance point is turned as null position. In practice, a small residual voltage is present at a null position due to presence of harmonic in the excitation signal and stray capacitance coupling pt the 1ry& 2ndry winding,when the core is now displacedfrom null position,the induced voltage in secondary towards which the core has moved increase while that in other 2ndry decreases this results in differential voltage output from transformer.

A: EXPERIMENT NO .2 AIM: Measurement of speed by photoelectric pick up APPARATUS: Trainer kit, CRO, connecting wires. THEORY: This method consists of mounting an opaque disc on rotating shaft.The disc has no .of equidistant holes in its periphery . At 1 side of the disc a light fixed & on the other side of the disc ,on the line with the light source,light sensor such as phototube or some photosensitive semiconducting device is placed.When the opaque portion of the disc is between the light source and lightsensor ,the lattice is unilluminated & produces no o/p. But when a hole appears between the 2,light falling upon sensors produces an o/p pulse. The frequency at which these pulses are produced depends upon no of holes in the disc and its speed of rotation.Since the no of holes is fixed,the pulse rate is function of speed of rotation.pulse rate are measured by an electronic counter that can be directly calibrated in terms of speed in “rpm” .

Observation table and calculation: RESULT: EXPERIMENT NO 9 OBJECTIVE: To study working of cathode-ray oscilloscope. APPARATUS: Cathode-ray oscilloscope, multimeter, and oscillator. INTRODUCTION: The cathode-ray oscilloscope (CRO) is a common laboratory instrument that provides accurate time and aplitude measurements of voltage signals over a wide range of frequencies. Its reliability, stability, and ease of operation make it suitable as a general purpose laboratory instrument. The heart of the CRO is a cathode-ray tube shown schematically in Fig. 1. The cathode ray is a beam of electrons which are emitted by the heated cathode (negative electrode) and accelerated toward the fluorescent screen. The assembly of the cathode, intensity grid, focus grid, and accelerating anode (positive electrode) is called an electron gun. Its purpose is to generate the electron beam and control its intensity and focus. Between the electron gun and the fluorescent screen are two pair of metal plates - one oriented to provide horizontal deflection of the beam and one pair oriented ot give vertical deflection to the beam. These plates are thus referred to as the horizontal and vertical deflection plates. The combination of these two deflections allows the beam to reach any portion of the fluorescent screen. Wherever the electron beam hits the screen, the phosphor is excited and light is emitted from that point. This coversion of electron energy into light allows us to write with points or lines of light on an otherwise darkened screen. In the most common use of the oscilloscope the signal to be studied is first amplified and then applied to the vertical (deflection) plates to deflect the beam vertically and at the same time a voltage that increases linearly with time is applied to the horizontal (deflection) plates thus causing the beam to be deflected horizontally at a uniform (constant> rate. The signal applied to the verical plates is thus displayed on the screen as a function of time. The horizontal axis serves as a uniform time scale. The linear deflection or sweep of the beam horizontally is accomplished by use of a sweep generator that is incorporated in the oscilloscope circuitry. The voltage output of such a generator is that of a sawtooth wave as shown in Fig. 2. Application of one cycle of this voltage difference, which increases linearly with time, to the horizontal plates causes the beam to be deflected linearly with time across the tube face. When the voltage suddenly falls to zero, as at points (a) (b) (c), etc...., the end of each sweep the beam flies back to its initial position. The horizontal deflection of the beam is repeated periodically, the frequency of this periodicity is adjustable by external controls. To obtain steady traces on the tube face, an internal number of cycles of the unknown signal that is applied to the vertical plates must be associated with each cycle of the sweep generator. Thus, with such a matching of synchronization of the two deflections, the pattern on the tube face repeats itself and hence appears to remain stationary. The persistance of vision in the human eye and of the glow of the fluorescent screen aids in producing a stationary pattern. In addition, the electron beam is cut off (blanked) during flyback so that the retrace sweep is not observed. CRO Operation: A simplified block diagram of a typical oscilloscope is shown in Fig. 3. In general, the instrument is operated in the following manner. The signal to be displayed is amplified by the vertical amplifier and applied to the verical deflection plates of the CRT. A portion of the signal in the vertical amplifier is applied to the sweep trigger as a triggering signal. The sweep trigger then generates a pulse coincident with a selected point in the cycle of the triggering signal. This pulse turns on the sweep generator, initiating the sawtooth wave form. The sawtooth wave is amplified by the horizontal amplifier and applied to the horizontal deflection plates. Usually, additional provisions signal are made for appliying an external triggering signal or utilizing the 60 Hz line for triggering. Also the sweep generator may be bypassed and an external signal applied directly to the horizontal amplifier. CRO Controls The controls available on most oscilloscopes provide a wide range of operating conditions and thus make the instrument especially versatile. Since many of these controls are common to most oscilloscopes a brief description of them follows. CATHODE-RAY TUBE Power and Scale Illumination: Turns instrument on and controls illumination of the graticule. Focus: Focus the spot or trace on the screen. Intensity: Regulates the brightness of the spot or trace. VERTICAL AMPLIFIER SECTION Position: Controls vertical positioning of oscilloscope display. Sensitivity: Selects the sensitivity of the vertical amplifier in calibrated steps. Variable Sensitivity: Provides a continuous range of sensitivities between the calibrated steps. Normally the sensitivity is calibrated only when the variable knob is in the fully clockwise position. AC-DC-GND: Selects desired coupling (ac or dc) for incoming signal applied to vertical amplifier, or grounds the amplifier input. Selecting dc couples the input directly to the amplifier; selecting ac send the signal through a capacitor before going to the amplifier thus blocking any constant component. HORIZONTAL-SWEEP SECTION Sweep time/cm: Selects desired sweep rate from calibrated steps or admits external signal to horizontal amplifier. Sweep time/cm Variable: Provides continuously variable sweep rates. Calibrated position is fully clockwise. Position: Controls horizontal position of trace on screen. Horizontal Variable: Controls the attenuation (reduction) of signal applied to horizontal aplifier through Ext. Horiz. connector. TRIGGER The trigger selects the timing of the beginning of the horizontal sweep. Slope: Selects whether triggering occurs on an increasing (+) or decreasing (-) portion of trigger signal. Coupling: Selects whether triggering occurs at a specific dc or ac level. Source: Selects the source of the triggering signal. INT (internal) from signal on vertical amplifier EXT - (external) - from an external signal inserted at the EXT. TRIG. INPUT. LINE - 60 cycle triger Level: Selects the voltage point on the triggering signal at which sweep is triggered. It also allows automatic (auto) triggering of allows sweep to run free (free run). CONNECTIONS FOR THE OSCILLOSCOPE Vertical Input: A pair of jacks for connecting the signal under study to the Y (or vertical) amplifier. The lower jack is grounded to the case. Horizontal Input: A pair of jacks for connecting an external signal to the horizontal amplifier. The lower terminal is graounted to the case of the oscilloscope. External Tigger Input: Input connector for external trigger signal. Cal. Out: Provides amplitude calibrated square waves of 25 and 500 millivolts for use in calibrating the gain of the amplifiers. Accuracy of the vertical deflection is + 3%. Sensitivity is variable. Horizontal sweep should be accurate to within 3%. Range of sweep is variable. Operating Instructions: Before plugging the oscilloscope into a wall receptacle, set the controls as follows: (a) Power switch (b) Intensity fully (c) Vertical centering in (d) Horizontal centering in (e) Vertical (f) Sweep times 1 at counter the center the center at off clockwise of range of range 0.2 Plug line cord into a standard ac wall recepticle (nominally 118 V). Turn power on. Do not advance the Intensity Control. Allow the scope to warm up for approximately two minutes, then turn the Intensity Control until the beam is visible on the screen. WARNING: Never advance the Intensity Control so far that an excessively bright spot appears. Bright spots imply burning of the screen. A sharp focused spot of high intensity (great brightness) should never be allowed to remain fixed in one position on the screen for any length of time as damage to the screen may occur. Adjust Horizontal and Vertical Centering Controls. Adjust the focus to give a sharp trace. Set trigger to internal, level to auto. EXPERIMENT NO. 10 AIM: To measure voltage using load cell. APPARATUS: Trainer kit,multimeter,etc. THEORY: A load cell is an electronic device (transducer) that is used to convert a force into an electrical signal. This conversion is indirect and happens in two stages. Through a mechanical arrangement, the force being sensed deforms a strain gauge. The strain gauge converts the deformation (strain) to electrical signals. A load cell usually consists of four strain gauges in a Wheatstone bridge configuration. Load cells of one or two strain gauges are also available. The electrical signal output is typically in the order of a few millivolts and requires amplification by an instrumentation amplifier before it can be used. The output of the transducer is plugged into an algorithm to calculate the force applied to the transducer. Although strain gauge load cells are the most common, there are other types of load cells as well. In industrial applications, hydraulic (or hydrostatic) is probably the second most common, and these are utilized to eliminate some problems with strain gauge load cell devices. As an example, a hydraulic load cell is immune to transient voltages (lightning) so might be a more effective device in outdoor environments. Other types include piezo-electric load cells (useful for dynamic measurements of force), and vibrating wire load cells, which are useful in geomechanical applications due to low amounts of drift. Every load cell is subject to "ringing" when subjected to abrupt load changes. This stems from the spring-like behavior of load cells. In order to measure the loads, they have to deform. As such, a load cell of finite stiffness must have spring-like behavior, exhibiting vibrations at its natural frequency. An oscillating data pattern can be the result of ringing. Ringing can be suppressed in a limited fashion by passive means. Alternatively, a control system can use an actuator to actively damp out the ringing of a load cell. This method offers better performance at a cost of significant increase in complexity.

THEORY: A pressure transducer is a transducer that converts pressure into an analog electrical signal. Although there are various types of pressure transducers, one of the most common is the strain-gage base transducer. The conversion of pressure into an electrical signal is achieved by the physical deformation of strain gages which are bonded into the diaphragm of the pressure transducer and wired into a wheatstone bridge configuration. Pressure applied to the pressure transducer produces a deflection of the diaphragm which introduces strain to the gages. The strain will produce an electrical resistance change proportional to the pressure. OBSERVATION TABLE: RESULT:
