Applied Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering
open-in-new
<p>Applied Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering is an advanced branch of engineering which deals with the application of existing or known scientific knowledge in <a href="/facts/Electronics/E4JhgISq">electronics</a>, instrumentation, <a href="/facts/Measurements/rsLLbn1s">measurements</a> and <a href="/facts/Process_control/tmjQhchm">control</a> for any process, practical <a href="/facts/Calibration/xkqmdeVl">calibration</a> of instruments, automation of processes etc. It is a combination of Electronics and <a href="/facts/Instrumentation_Engineering/znu7yF5t">Instrumentation Engineering</a>. This branch is an industry-oriented engineering branch which needs more knowledge and experience in industrial applications to excel in a career. The course has been introduced in many universities across <a href="/facts/India/1kKHcnxM">India</a>. Many universities have different variants of courses like Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering, Instrumentation Engineering etc. </p><p>Apart from covering core subjects such as <a href="/facts/Industrial_control_system/YzgsMy2x">Industrial Instrumentation</a>, Measurements, Sensors & Transducers, <a href="/facts/Process_Control/tmjQhchm">Process Control</a>, Bio-Medical Instrumentation and <a href="/facts/Robotics/wkmvodJz">Robotics</a>, students deal with software and hardware topics such as <a href="/facts/Microprocessor/Fx9CaQht">Microprocessor</a> and <a href="/facts/Microcontroller/MKrnAhnm">Microcontroller</a>-based instrumentation, <a href="/facts/VLSI/l1Wgqr27">VLSI</a> and <a href="/facts/Embedded_System/a4muX1wU">Embedded System</a> designs, <a href="/facts/OrCAD/knU8hh5s">pSPICE</a>, <a href="/facts/Computer_architecture/tHtwxgR2">Computer Architecture</a> and organization, Virtual Instrumentation (<a href="/facts/LabVIEW/ue0vyha4">LabVIEW</a>), Industrial Automation (<a href="/facts/Programmable_logic_controller/bqh0GAdb">PLC</a>, <a href="/facts/SCADA/nKL6Mfd1">SCADA</a> etc.) and computer control of processes. Computer languages such as <a href="/facts/C_(programming_language)/Ky2No763">C</a> and <a href="/facts/C%2B%2B/Et0F2qn9">C++</a> are also part of the curriculum. </p>
