Don’t Miss this Special ITC Short Course – “Sensors – Principles of Data Acquisition”
During the International Telemetry Conference (ITC) October 26, 2023 in Las Vegas, NV.  John Moors, DTS Aerospace & Defense Applications Support Lead, is teaching a half-day course, “Sensors – Principles of Data Acquisition Systems.” Be sure to also visit DTS booth #901 at ITC.

October 26th | Thursday
Starting at 08:00am
Las Vegas, NV
The Horseshoe Las Vegas (formerly known as Bally’s)

Course Description
This course provides an overview of the fundamentals of collecting data in flight test, from the physics of what is being measured through analog to digital conversion. Topics include: sensor theory, common sensors and limitations, shunt and empirical checks, data acquisition system features and functions, anti-alias filtering, sampling error, analog considerations of channel to channel time synchronization, grounding and shielding, and specifying a complete system. Compared to others, this course is more “analog” in nature, focusing on the physical measurement before data is formatted and streamed.
