“…There is a demand for a universal data acquisition (DAQ) system, which can be used in the laboratory. While some systems have been developed for use in the areas of bioelectric measurement [1], cell-based biosensors [2], nuclear detection [3] and laboratory test and measurement [4,5], there is no universal DAQ system for all general applications, and most DAQ systems employ a microcontroller/DSP to implement data acquisition and to communicate with a computer. The main disadvantages of the existing systems are that they are usually complex and the development cost is high [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8].…”

This note presents a low-cost data acquisition and function generation unit with a USB interface in such a way that it helps others to design a USB-based system without knowing details of the USB itself. The unit integrates most functions commonly used in the laboratory, such as analogue-to-digital converter (ADC), digital-to-analogue converter (DAC), synchronous direct digital synthesizers (DDSs) and digital in/digital out, into a single unit. Dedicated software with a user-friendly interface has been developed in Visual C++ 6.0, to control the hardware operation and to log the sampled data into a PC or a laptop. Preliminary tests show that all the designed functions are working. Due to the USB latency, however, the ADC sampling rate is slower than expected. An alternative design is suggested to increase the sampling rate.

“…Recent advances in programmable digital signal processors (DSP) together with novel approaches in signal processing and programming techniques allow the development of a costeffective, universal data acquisition system with a wide range of application. We have developed such data acquisition system [20], which have been successfully implemented in both the sidelooking dual frequency radar and the cloud radar systems.…”

A review is given of recent activities undertaken in the Institute of Radio Astronomy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine for the development of millimeter-wave radars. The radars constructed include cloud radars and a side-looking airborne radar system. They are capable to perform real-time, high-resolution measurements in the frequency bands of 36 and 95 GHz. The setup of these instruments, the novel technical solutions, and the signal processing technique introduced are discussed. The results obtained with such instruments during measurement campaigns are presented as well.
