Complete Experimental Set with a Period Meter

The study describes a multitask platform composed for measuring purposes. The elaborated system is applied for observation and control of time-dependent parameters obtained from a strain gauge transducer. It consists of hardware and software components intended, on one side, to transfer effectively the primary information from the sensor with a period meter as transducer, and on the other hand, to demonstrate the methods used by microcontrollers in accessing the important parameters of a type of pulse-width-modulated signal. The software part is based on time-interrupt handles and Graphical User Interface. In this way, the constructed experimental set represents the contemporary techniques of processing sensor data.
