Real World Instrumentation with Python

Suggested Reading

If you would like to explore test equipment and measurement topics in more depth, I would suggest the following book as a good place to start:

Electronic Test Instruments: Analog and Digital Measurements, 2nd ed. Robert A. Witte, Prentice Hall, 2002.

This book provides a solid introduction to basic measurement theory, followed by a very readable and informative survey of modern electronic test instruments and their applications. Each topic is supported with real-world examples drawn from the author’s own experiences.

You can also find appendixes in books on electronic circuit theory that describe the basic theory and applications of instruments such as DMMs and oscilloscopes.

Finally, many test equipment manufacturers offer excellent online tutorials for their products, so I would suggest that you look there first for more information when searching the Web.
