Data Acquisition with Personal Computers

Abstract

This report describes representative samples of the hardware and software available for data acquisition and specialized analysis on XT and AT class personal computers and relates the authors' experience with three integrated systems. For all but the most demanding acquisition tasks and the most hostile environments, we recommend that users strongly consider using a plug-in board with menu-driven acquisition software and statistical and specialized analysis packages suited to their application.
