The ADwin-Light-16 Real-Time Data Acquisition System is an intelligent real-time data acquisition and control system with analog and digital inputs and outputs, counters and a microprocessor with local memory. They are ideal, low-priced solutions for fast data acquisition and control in real time under Windows. Different configurations and expansion modules make these boards cost-effective for application-specific use. Based on one common design, the different versions include a PCI plug-in board, a CompactPCI version, a EURO-size plug-in board, and an external system in a robust metal enclosure. The onboard SHARC DSP processor with its own local memory handles system management, data acquisition, on-line processing and control of outputs. Processing of each measurement can occur immediately after acquisition. The ADbasic control language allows users to program mathematical operations and functions which are executed immediately after each sampling step even at sampling rates as high as 100 kHz. The ADwin software environment can be used under Windows (XP/Win7/Win8/Win10) and Linux, or as a stand-alone data acquisition system. Also, ADwin has drivers for many of the popular programming environments including Visual Basic, Visual C/C++, LabVIEW/LabWindows, TestPoint and others.
