Figure 1.1 Generalized instrumentation system The sensor converts energy or information from the measurand to another form (usually electric). This signal is then processed and displayed so that humans can perceive the information. Elements and connections shown by dashed lines are optional for some applications.

Figure 1.2 simplified electrocardiographic recording system Two possible interfering inputs are stray magnetic fields and capacitively coupled noise. Orientation of patient cables and changes in electrode-skin impedance are two possible modifying inputs. Z1 and Z2 represent the electrode-skin interface impedances.

Figure 1.3 (a) Static-sensitivity curve that relates desired input xd to output y. Static sensitivity may be constant for only a limited range of inputs, (b) Static sensitivity: zero drift and sensitivity drift. Dotted lines indicate that zero drift and sensitivity drift can be negative. [Part (b) modified from Measurement Systems: Application and Design, by E. O. Doebelin.
