The hardware setup consists of Arduino UNO connected to LM35 temperature sensor. The technical specifications of Arduino UNO are mentioned in the Table 1. The board operates by providing external power supply through the USB connected to the computer. The first pin of LM35 is connected to the 5V pin on board that provides a regulated 5V supply to operate the sensor. Its second pin that 1 INTRODUCTION A large number of engineering applications require effective control systems that rely upon several physical quantities like temperature, pressure, humidity, speed, position, current, voltage, etc. Monitoring and control of such parameters being very important for maximizing the performance of systems, it becomes necessary to acquire accurate data corresponding to it. A computer-assisted real time module including suitable data acquisition systems and software can give a proper insight to these physical quantities (Blanco et al. 2014). LabVIEW is one such versatile program development application that can solve our purpose (Bayoumi et al. 2015). It uses graphical programming language. The execution of LabVIEW programs, called Virtual Instruments (VIs), is determined by the structure of graphical block diagrams (Javier et al. 2014). Every VI uses functions to manipulate input from the user and display it. In order to acquaint with its versatility, we have created an application specific VI that runs to acquire data from temperature sensor through Arduino Uno and plots the output in the form of chart. The sequences of steps followed are mentioned through Figure 1.
