Describing Sensor Performance: When describing sensors and instrumentation systems we make use of a range of terms to quantify their characteristics and performance. It is important to have a clear understanding of this terminology‚ so we will look briefly at some of the more important terms. • Range: This defines the maximum and minimum values of the quantity that the sensor or instrument is designed to measure. • Resolution or discrimination: This is the smallest discernible change
