Electronic Sensors

A section of Sensors (ISSN 1424-8220).

Section Information

Electronic Sensors Section publishes the original research related to electronic sensors, circuits and signals. This Section addresses to the electronic component that is part in a device used to measure a physical quantity such as temperature, humidity, pressure, light, distance, acceleration, loudness or other physical quantities and convert it into an electrical signal. Submitted papers should focus on the design of innovative electrical and electronic circuitry configurations for the development of sensor systems, including interfaces, chip, SoC implementation, etc. Novel approaches for smart sensors and advances in electronic transduction mechanisms, enabling enhancements in selectivity, sensitivity, signal-to-noise ratio, dynamic range, miniaturization, as well as the detection of novel measurands fall within the scope of this Section. Furthermore, the applications of electronic sensors to a range of relevant challenges are highly important.
