Data acquisition is the digitizing and processing of multiple sensor or signal inputs for the purpose of monitoring, analyzing and/or controlling systems and processes.
Data Acquisition Products Categories
Chart Recorders (271 suppliers)
Chart recorders and strip charts are data acquisition tools used to generate a plot, graph or other visualization of data versus time.
Chart Recording Paper and Consumables (32 suppliers)
Paper recording charts and consumables consist of circular charts, strip charts, markers, fanfolds, sheets, pens, and pen arms used in chart and strip recording instruments.
Counter and Timer Boards (67 suppliers)
Counter and timer boards are computer cards that perform digital counting and/or timing functions.
Data Acquisition (2,098 suppliers)
Data acquisition is the digitizing and processing of multiple sensor or signal inputs for the purpose of monitoring, analyzing and/or controlling systems and processes. Signal conditioning includes the amplification, filtering, converting, and other processes required to make sensor output suitable for rereading by computer boards.
Data Acquisition Computer Boards (157 suppliers)
Data acquisition computer boards are self-contained printed circuit boards that typically plug into the backplane, motherboard, or otherwise interface directly with the computer bus.
Data Acquisition Systems and Instruments (550 suppliers)
Data acquisition systems and instruments collect, digitize, and process multiple sensor or signal inputs for the purpose of monitoring, analyzing and/or controlling systems and processes.
Data Collection Terminals (118 suppliers)
Data collection terminals are portable or handheld devices that are used to input, read, and/or log data. They often have barcode and wireless data transmission capability.
Data Input Modules (306 suppliers)
Data input modules accept sensor and other signal output for data acquisition systems. They may include signal conditioning prior to the analog-to-digital conversion stage.
Data Loggers and Data Recorders (1,115 suppliers)
Data loggers and data recorders acquire digital data from sensors and other signals. They are primarily used to store data for subsequent downloads to a host PC, but may also include real-time features such as monitors and alarms.
Data Output Modules (209 suppliers)
Data output modules or cards transfer amplified, conditioned, or digitized signals.
I/O Modules and Instruments (534 suppliers)
Data acquisition I/O devices have both input and output functionality. Digital or discrete I/O modules include on-off signals used in communication, user interface, or control.
Signals Intelligence Systems (6 suppliers)
Signals intelligence (SIGNT) systems intercept technical and other intelligence-rated information from foreign electronic emissions.
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Systems Software (SCADA) (154 suppliers)
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are large-scale, industrial control and measurement systems that consist of a central host, one or more remote units, a communications network, and specialized software.
Telemetry Receivers and Telemetry Transmitters (360 suppliers)
Telemetry receivers and telemetry transmitters are data acquisition components used to gather information from remote locations via wireless communication.
