DAQ adapter for Matlab when used with Matlab and Matlab's Data Acquisition Toolbox provides a single environment for data acquisition and analysis.
"Our customers require high performance yet easy to use USB data acquisition solutions", commented Tim Ludy, Product Marketing Manager at Data Translation.
"Matlab, with over 1000,000 users, is a standard environment for developing applications containing both data acquisition and analysis".
"The DAQ adapter for Matlab offers our customers a powerful, yet simple-to-use interface between Data Translation hardware and Matlab".
"Data Translation has made a significant investment integrating these leading-edge data acquisition modules into Matlab's Data Acquisition Toolbox", comments Steven Kolak, Test and Measurement Product Manager at The MathWorks.
"This added support will enable applications to be developed in the Matlab environment that are both high performance and low cost".
The DAQ adapter for Matlab supports the complete range of Data Translation USB and PCI boards and is available immediately as a free download.
Matlab and the Data Acquisition Toolbox are available separately from The MathWorks.
The DT9836 Series modules are available in two packaging configurations: a BNC connection box and an OEM embedded version, both are available immediately.
