Good day.
Shorty I need to acquire analog data (up to 10 signals, frequency is more then 10 Khz) and store them on PC and also control up to 10 discreet signals (frequency of state change is 1Khz).
How to do it better?

Possible ways:
1. use CPLD or MCU. On my job I have some of it. Issue I do not know how to transfer data on PC and how to store them.
2. use LabView + NI USB-6341 .

Suggest me idea.
 

What's it going to be used for and where (in a lab, product..etc). How about some more information.
 

Thanks for reply.
So basic task:
1. Design measurement system for Power Semiconductor Lab
2. Environment condition - room.
3. Installation will measure electrical and mechanical parameters of IGBT and estimate Reliability.
4. Installation has matrix of 40- 50 DUTs.
5. Installation "core" must choose one of the IGBT and measure its parameters then save result and choose another one.
 

i would suggest labview and daq ... as it can also be used to process the data that u acquire , if needed. and working with GUI bases programming is much simpler !!....
 

The easiest would probably be to use LabVIEW + NI USB-6341. Their equipment and software environment are somewhat expensive, however it is fairly easy to get things up and going which is usually a fair trade-off. If you want to generate test reports and sequence different code modules you'll probably need their TestStand software as well, so possibly plan on that.
