Instrumentation – Data Acquisition Card

Data acquisition (DAQ) is the process of measuring an event in terms of voltage, current, pressure, temperature or sound. A DAQ system includes high-speed data acquisition measurement hardware (a DAQ card or module), input devices such as sensors, and a computer or processor. Personal computer-based DAQ systems use the display, processing power, and connectivity of modern computers to provide a flexible, powerful and especially cost-effective measurement solution.
