PC BASED DATA ACQUISITION 

Whether you are designing automated test systems, or performing research in a laboratory, our range of PC-based data acquisition hardware and data acquisition software will provide the solution. Choose an analog input data acquisition card when you want to measure a variable signal with your PC. We can supply a wide range of low cost data acquisition, multifunction data acquisition and high speed data acquisition for sampling a range of analog signals. Analog output boards allow you to generate steady voltage signals or waveforms for testing your products or systems. We can offer high performance analog output boards which can generate high speed waveforms, and low cost boards for fixed output signals Our  digital I/O range of data acquisition hardware lets you monitor and control switches and alarms, or transfer data between machines. All our data acquisition devices may be used on Windows or Linux platforms. 
For real-time data acquisition or large channel count DAQ systems, please take a look at our real-time DAQ solutions section. This includes data acquisition boards which use on-board processors and operating systems, along with a multitude of signal conditioning and termination panels 

ANALOG INPUT/ MULTIFUNCTION

This section comprises PC based data acquisition cards or digitisers that convert analog signals into digital (A/D) so that a computer can process the data. Each analog data acquisition card or module (USB) can take several analog input signals, and may also have additional functionality such as the following: 

  • Analog output (D/A) - providing variable voltage or current outputs 
  • Digital input and/or output (digital I/O)
  • Counter/timers (abbreviated to CTR)

Our range includes a variety of analog data acquisition devices to suit your requirements of sampling speed, A/D resolution and whether you require simultaneous sampling or multiplexed inputs.Several of our very fastest sampling analog data acquisition cards are not just digitisers (A/D converters). They include signal conditioning and processing that you would find in bench top oscilloscopes from manufacturers such as Keysight (formerly Agilent).


 PCI EXPRESS 

PCI Express data acquisition cards:

The latest computers are likely to have a mixture of PCI and PCI Express slots, or maybe only PCI Express, which means you may not be able to install the PCI cards that you used in your previous system.
