Abstract.   Principles of interferometric measurement of transparent layer thickness are formulated. A description of optical-mechanical tract, electronic circuit, and software of a modernized interferometer is given. Mathematical justification of the measurement principles and electronic scheme of the signal registration are presented. A PC program for data processing is described in details.
