Features
Price and performance beyond compare
Go ahead and compare the Keysight Technologies, Inc. DAQ970A
Data Acquisition System with other data acquisition systems
currently available. You’ll find it hard to come up with a system
that offers the powerful measurement performance, flexibility,
connectivity options and ease of use of the DAQ970A—even in
systems costing three to five times as much.
What can you expect from a data acquisition
system thats this affordable? Measurements you
can trust
We took the measurement engine from our best-selling benchtop
DMM and embedded it inside a 3-slot mainframe. You get the
benefit of proven Keysight measurement performance, universal
inputs with built-in signal conditioning, and modular flexibility, all
in a low-cost, compact data acquisition package. The DAQ970A
features 6½ digits (22 bits) of resolution, 0.004% basic dcV
accuracy, and ultra-low reading noise. Combine that with scan
rates of up to 450 channels/sec, and you’ve got the speed and
accuracy you need to get the job done right the first time.
Built-in signal conditioning to get your job done
Whether you need to measure temperature, ac/dc volts,
resistance, frequency, or current, the DAQ970A can handle it.
The internal autoranging DMM directly measures 12 different
functions, eliminating the need for expensive external signal
conditioning. And our unique design allows complete per channel
configurability for maximum flexibility and quick, easy set up. It’s
like having an independent, high-performance DMM behind each
channel.
Standard connectivity to the PC
The DAQ970A has built-in Gigabit LAN and USB 2.0. With the
standard LAN connections you also get the added benefit of a
graphical Web interface for easy configuration of measurements
and monitoring of results using a standard Web browser.
Convenient data storage with USB flash drive
The DAQ970A also features a built-in USB memory port so that
you can use a USB flash drive to collect data without being
connected to a PC. Data can be logged directly to the USB
flash drive, extending your instrument’s memory, or copied from
internal memory for transfer to a computer in another location.
