42-682 Bioinstrumentation

12 units, Carnegie Mellon University

This course aims to build concepts and skills in electronics for the design and construction of instruments for biomedical applications. The course uses a flipped, fastpaced format to cover a range of electronic components and circuits, including resistors, capacitors, transistors, sensors, actuators, amplifiers, signal filters, and microcontrollers, through lectures, tutorials, weekly lab projects, and term projects. Students, with or without a background in electronics, will gain handson skills to build functional instruments for physiological measurements such as temperature, gas concentration, blood pressure, and EKG signals.
