Sensor and high-voltage meas vital part of many test systems. Wha measurements different from typical volt measurements is that a special type of required to bring these signals into a me Some of the common examples of sign include filtering to eliminate 50 or 60 H completion to amplify small signals, isolati voltages or attenuating high-voltage signals It is not uncommon to have systems with t of channels of the above measurements, pu area of medium- to high-channel-count channel-count signal conditioning systems p design as well as implementation challeng foremost being synchronizing multip measurements while providing differ conditioning to each sensor or signal. This paper dives into some of the most com and software considerations and best implementing large-scale systems. It co topics including synchronizing multiple systems using open, industry-standard ha PXI; data acquisition rates and resolutio connectivity; and expansion and spares. best software practices, large data ma documentation will also be discussed.
