Measurement Data Acquisition Print Measurement Data Acquisition (DAQ) is widely used in industry and research. A great amount of measurement data from a diverse range of instruments and sensors has to be acquired and stored reliable under computer control. Every data acquisition task has its own special challenges. A DAQ system consists of sensors, DAQ measurement hardware and a computer with specialized software. The Signal Conditioning, Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) and the appropriate Computer Bus are the key components of a DAQ Device. The operation of the DAQ device is controlled by a computer in combination with specialized data acquisition software in order to process, store and visualize measurement data. Prev Next
