I can't remember ever seeing such a book.Could you suggest me a complete book about electronic measurement. It should be about:
Thanks
- Multimeter
- spectrum analyzer
- Fourier analyzer
- Wattmeter
- logic analyzer
- Automatic measurement
- Impedence measurement

I do remember a book by Peatman, J.B. on Hardware Design that talked about "Signature Analysis". I'm not sure the technique ever caught on.Read the manuals.
There isn't one. Simply because the topics are too broad and some are too large to be sensibly covered in a single book. Spectrum analysis alone fills a complete book.Could you suggest me a complete book about electronic measurement. It should be about:

Interesting stuff but most of it is really old (i.e. historic), and like the oscilloscope books or the book about automated test systems not really relevant for this day and age unless you're curating a test instrument museum.Maybe some of the books here will help. Be warned that they may assume knowledge you don't yet have. But, they will help you formulate more specific questions that can be answered here on this forum.

True, the books are very old -- nearly 50 years old.Interesting stuff but most of it is really old (i.e. historic), and like the oscilloscope books or the book about automated test systems not really relevant for this day and age unless you're curating a test instrument museum.

Yes, but unfortunately here that is only true for the electronsTrue, the books are very old -- nearly 50 years old.
But, electrons still act the same now as they did then.
I have to disagree, the development test gear has undergone in the last almost five decades is a lot more than window dressing.The scope probe books are a good example of this. Also, spectrum analyzers still work by the same principles. Sure, there is a fancy user interface on new ones but that is just window dressing.
That's great, but really, how useful do you think reading up on vertical amplifiers made of valves and early ICs is when newer scopes rely on DSPs and software in the analog input path to provide linearity that is magnitudes better than anything found on those analog old-timers?As far as the theory books on how o-scopes work, the best ones are the ones that deal with issues of the vertical amplifier. Sure, it uses tubes and transistors in the circuits but there is information there that is not always easy to find elsewhere.
