4 Data Acquisition (DAQ) Wikiedia: Data acquisition is the rocess of samling signals that measure real world hysical conditions and converting the resulting samles into digital numeric values that can be maniulated by a comuter. Therefore need to: 1) Detect sensor signal (current, voltage) 2) Amlify signal and suress noise 3) Transfer signal along cables 4) Transform analog to digital signal 4
