3 Automatic test equipment or automated test equipment (ATE) is any apparatus that performs tests on a device, known as the device under test (DUT), equipment under test (EUT) or unit under test (UUT), using automation to quickly perform measurements and evaluate the test results. An ATE can be a simple computer controlled digital multimeter or a complicated system containing dozens of complex test instruments (real or simulated electronic test equipment) capable of performing automatically tests and fault diagnosis.
4 Interface keyboard Instruments or SENSORS & SIGNALS Operating modes OFF-LINE: measurements are performed on the DUT when this is OFF. ON-LINE: measurements are performed on the DUT when this is working. REAL-TIME: measurements are performed very fast on the DUT during its operation.

19 Signal Conditioning Amplification Amplifiers boost the level of the input signal to better match the range of the analog-todigital converter (ADC), thus increasing the resolution and sensitivity of the measurement. Using external signal conditioners located closer to the signal source, or transducer, improves the signal-tonoise ratio of the measurement by boosting the signal level before it is affected by environmental noise. Attenuation Attenuation is the opposite of amplification. It is necessary when the voltages to be digitized are beyond the input range of the digitizer.
20 Signal Conditioning Filtering Signal conditioners can include filters to reject unwanted noise within a certain frequency range. Almost all DAQ applications are subject to some level of 50 or 60 Hz noise picked up from power lines or machinery. Therefore, most conditioners include lowpass filters designed specifically to provide maximum rejection of 50 to 60 Hz noise. Another common use of filters is to prevent signal aliasing a phenomenon that arises when a signal is undersampled (sampled too slowly). You can avoid this signal distortion only by removing any signal components above one-half the sampling frequency with low-pass filters before the signal is sampled.
21 Signal Conditioning Isolation Improper grounding of the system is one of the most common causes for measurement problems, including noise and damaged measurement devices. Signal conditioners with isolation can prevent most of these problems. Such devices pass the signal from its source to the measurement device without a physical connection by using transformer, optical, or capacitive coupling techniques. Multiplexing Typically, the digitizer is the most expensive part of a data acquisition system. By multiplexing, you can sequentially route a number of signals into a single digitizer, thus achieving a cost-effective way to greatly expand the signal count of your system. Multiplexing is necessary for any high-channelcount application. Simultaneous Sampling When it is critical to measure two or more signals at the same instant in time, simultaneous sampling is required.

23 A/D Conversion
24 A/D Conversion Advantages of operating with Digital Signals: - High noise rejection - Easily to be elaborated by PC or embedded architectures (Microcontroller based) - Easily to be trasmitted and stored
25 A/D Conversion [V] samples Sampling (in the time domain) A right sampling rate must be choosen in order to assure a reliable rapresentation of the analog signal in the digital domain Quantization (in the amplitude domain) The sample is then converted into a digital code (e.g. 0010)
26 A/D Conversion The sampling Theorem: In case of a signal f(t) with a Fourier Trasnform F( ): F( )=0 for >= c (band limited) The signal f(t) is completely determined by giving its ordinates at a series of points (samples) spaced 1/(2 c ) seconds apart. A sufficient sample-rate, s is therefore 2 c samples/second, or anything larger. f t f nt s 2 ; c sin T c c t t 2 / nt s nt

36 Signals to DAQ connection Different scenaria can appear when we have to connect a signal source to a DAQ device: The device input and the signal source have the same (or common) ground. The device input and the signal source have an offset voltage between their grounds (AC and/or DC). This offset is the common mode voltage. The device and the signal source already have isolated grounds.
37 Signals to DAQ connection The device input and the signal source have the same (or common) ground. CONNECTION Common ground / single-ended inputs Single-ended is the recommended configuration for common ground connections.
38 Signals to DAQ connection The device input and the signal source have the same (or common) ground. CONNECTION Common ground / differential inputs Using differential inputs to monitor a signal source with a common ground is acceptable, though it requires more wiring and offers fewer channels than selecting a single-ended configuration.
39 Signals to DAQ connection The device input and the signal source have an offset voltage between their grounds (AC and/or DC). This offset is the common mode voltage. CONNECTION Common mode voltage / differential inputs Systems with varying ground potentials should always be monitored in the differential mode.
40 Signals to DAQ connection The device and the signal source already have isolated grounds. CONNECTION Isolated grounds / single-ended inputs Single-ended inputs can be used to monitor isolated inputs, although using differential mode increases your system s noise immunity.

52 PXI PXI is a rugged PC-based platform for measurement and automation systems. PXI combines PCI electrical-bus features with the modular, Eurocard packaging of CompactPCI and then adds specialized synchronization buses and key software features. PXI is both a high-performance and low-cost deployment platform for applications such as manufacturing test, military and aerospace, machine monitoring, automotive, and industrial test.
53 PXI-CHASSIS PCI and PCI Express Communication The PXI chassis provides the communication buses of PCI and PCI Express for controller and modules. The PCI bus uses a shared bus topology where the theoretical 132 MB/s peak bandwidth is divided among multiple devices so the different devices on the bus can communicate. PCI Express provides a point-to-point bus topology, replacing the shared bus with a shared switch. This gives each device its own direct access to the bus, and thus its own dedicated data pipelines called lanes. You can group these lanes together to increase bandwidth to the slot to achieve up to 24 GB/s of throughput.
54 PXI-CHASSIS Timing and Synchronization PXI builds on its CompactPCI architecture base by adding integrated timing and synchronization that is used to route synchronization clocks and triggers internally. A PXI chassis incorporates a dedicated 10 MHz system reference clock, PXI trigger bus, star trigger bus, and slot-to-slot local bus, while a PXI Express chassis adds a 100 MHz differential system clock, differential signaling, and differential star triggers to address the need for advanced timing and synchronization.
55 PXI Embedded Controllers With embedded controllers, there s no need for an external PC. You have a complete system contained within the PXI chassis. Embedded controllers include standard features such as an integrated (multicore) CPU, hard drive, memory, Ethernet, video, serial, USB, and other peripherals. They are available for systems based on PXI or PXI Express, and you have your choice of OSs, including Windows or LabVIEW Real-Time.

63 Measurement BUS GPIB The General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB) is a system of hardware and software that allows you to control test equipment to make measurements quickly and accurately.
64 Measurement BUS GPIB Origin of GPIB The original GPIB was developed in the late 1960s by Hewlett-Packard (where it is called the HP-IB) to connect and control programmable instruments that Hewlett- Packard manufactured. In 1975, the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) published ANSI/IEEE Standard , IEEE Standard Digital Interface for Programmable Instrumentation, which contained the electrical, mechanical, and functional specifications of an interfacing system. The original IEEE was revised in 1978, primarily for editorial clarification and addendum. This bus is now used worldwide and is known by three names: General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB) Hewlett-Packard Interface Bus (HP-IB) IEEE 488 Bus
65 Measurement BUS GPIB Origin of GPIB Because the original IEEE 488 document contained no guidelines for a preferred syntax and format conventions, work continued on the specification to enhance system compatibility and configurability among test systems. This work resulted in a supplement standard, IEEE 488.2, Codes, Formats, Protocols, and Common Commands, for use with IEEE 488 (which was renamed IEEE 488.1). IEEE does not replace IEEE IEEE builds on IEEE by defining a minimum set of device interface capabilities, a common set of data codes and formats, a device message protocol, a generic set of commonly needed device commands, and a new status reporting model. In 1990, the IEEE specification included the Standard Commands for Programmable Instrumentation (SCPI) document, which defines specific commands that each instrument class (which usually includes instruments from various vendors) must obey. SCPI guarantees complete system compatibility and configurability among instruments. It is no longer necessary to learn a different command set for each instrument in an SCPI-compliant system, and it is easy to replace an instrument from one vendor with an instrument from another.
66 Measurement BUS GPIB
67 Measurement BUS GPIB Cables GPIB Cables are the physical link connecting all of the devices on the bus. There are: eight data lines in a GPIB cable that send data from one device to another. eight control lines that manage traffic on the data lines and control other interface operations. Maximum data rate - 1 megabyte per second over limited distances, 250 to 500 kilobytes per second typical maximum over a full transmission path. Limitations: - Do not connect more than 15 devices on any GPIB system. - Do not exceed a total of 20 meters of total cable length or 2 meters per device, whichever is less. - Avoid stacking more than three connectors on the back panel of an instrument. This can cause unnecessary strain on the rear-panel connector.
68 Measurement BUS GPIB Every GPIB instrument must have its own unique address on the bus. Each device can assume one of the following roles: Talkers are instruments that can be addressed to send data to the controller. Listeners are instruments that can be addressed to receive a command, and then respond to the command. All devices on the bus are required to listen. Controllers Controllers specify the instruments that will be the talker and listener in a data exchange. The controller of the bus must have a GPIB interface card to communicate on the GPIB. - The Active Controller is the computer or instrument that is currently controlling data exchanges. - The System Controller is the only computer or instrument that can take control and give up control of the GPIB to another computer or instrument, which is then called the active controller.

SCPI Commands The Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI) is a set of commands developed in The standardization provided in SCPI commands helps ensure that programs written for a particular SCPI instrument are easily adapted to work with a similar SCPI instrument. SCPI commands tell instruments to do device specific functions. For example, SCPI commands could tell an instrument to make a measurement and output data to a controller.

74 DUT Different scenaria Measurement of one quantity Measurement of multiple quantities by Data Acquisition Systems Instrument BUS (GPIB, IEEE 488.1, 488.2) VME, VXI BUS
75 Measurement BUS: VME/VXI VME is a high speed and high performance bus system with powerful interrupt management and multiprocessor capability. It was created by combining VERSAbus electrical specifications (1979) with the Eurocard format resulting in the VMEbus Revision A specification. The VMEbus specification has since then been refined through revisons B (1982), C, C.1, IEC 821 & IEC297 and IEEE VME represents one of today's most used industry bus standards (see VMEbus International Trade Association - VITA).

85 APPLICATION SOFTWARE LabVIEW LabVIEW is a program development application, much like various commercial C or BASIC development systems, or National Instruments LabWindows. However, LabVIEW is different from those applications in one important respect. Other programming systems use text-based languages to create lines of code, while LabVIEW uses a graphical programming language, G, to create programs in block diagram form. You can use LabVIEW with little programming experience. LabVIEW uses terminology, icons, and ideas familiar to scientists and engineers and relies on graphical symbols rather than textual language to describe programming actions. LabVIEW has extensive libraries of functions and subroutines for most programming tasks. For Windows, Macintosh, and Sun, LabVIEW contains application specific libraries for data acquisition and VXI instrument control. LabVIEW also contains application-specific libraries for GPIB and serial instrument control, data analysis, data presentation, and data storage. LabVIEW includes conventional program development tools, so you can set breakpoints, animate program execution to see how data passes through the program, and single-step through the program to make debugging and program development easier.
