How do I Generate the Report?

Glossary of Terms

A/D

Abbreviation for Analog-to-Digital, a process that converts a continuous analog
signal into a discrete digital approximation of the analog signal.

ADC

Abbreviation for Analog-to-Digital Converter, the hardware that performs the A/D
conversion.

API

Abbreviation for Application Programming Interface. An API defines the syntax of
the data structures and functions of software services.

Buffer

A block of memory used to receive data from a data-acquisition device or to write
data to a data-acquisition device.

Clocking

A periodic pulse or signal that data-acquisition hardware uses to read or write the
next sample or block of samples. Also referred to as “pacing”.

D/A

Abbreviation for digital-to-analog, a process that converts a discrete digital value into
a continuous analog voltage representing that value.

DAC

Abbreviation for digital-to-analog converter, the hardware that performs the D/A
conversion process.

DMA

Abbreviation for Direct Memory Access, a technique where the system board can
transfer data between a device and memory without using the CPU. In the PC, a
standard chip on the system board controls the transfer.
