NI DAQ systems include NI devices, sensors, and software like NI LabVIEW and NI FlexLogger™ software, offering a complete solution for accurate data capture and analysis.
Learn about mioDAQData acquisition (DAQ) is the process of measuring an electrical or physical phenomenon, such as voltage, current, temperature, pressure, or sound. A DAQ system consists of sensors, DAQ measurement hardware, and a computer with programmable software such as LabVIEW.
Why Choose NI
NI DAQ systems combine a huge catalog of quality, scalable hardware with productive software you need to maximize your design and research. Choose NI when you need confidence and flexibility.
Identifying the right DAQ system or device for your project requires considering many factors. These resources can help you choose the approach that delivers the data you need to make business decisions.
If your measurement needs fall within ±10 VDC input/output and TTL digital signals, a multifunction I/O device provides the best performance-to-cost ratio. These all-in-one devices connect to a computer over USB or can be installed in a computer.
Recommended Uses:
For more diverse measurement options, upgrade to a CompactDAQ system. These systems include a selection of measurement modules that support various voltage and digital input ranges, a wide array of sensors, and options for isolated measurements and rugged environments.
Recommended Uses:
Compact vibration and acoustic measurements
Electromechanical component test systems
High-channel count, distributed systems
For optimal system performance, upgrade to a PXI system. These systems combine and synchronize instruments with data acquisition, sensor measurements, a high-speed bus, and the latest processor technology.
Recommended Uses:
Production test systems for electronics where minimizing test time is crucial
Automated test systems that combine instruments with data acquisition
High-channel-count, high-data-throughput applications
The software and hardware environment need for fast, convenient, and stable system development is indispensable, and NI has it all.
