Abstract

This thesis presents the design and development of a system with the capability to detect up to forty channels of signals generated from different analog sources and to process them under the control of a microcomputer.

The present work offers the design and implementation of a hardware interface unit in a multichannel real-time data acquisition system as well as the application software program to operate it. This kind of system can be widely used in process control, musical instrument interfacing, and machine automation.

This interface unit follows the general instrumentation architecture in both signal processing and logic control. The software program is written in MCS BASIC-52 of Intel 8052AH. Easy operation as well as versatility in system architecture enhances the system's flexibility for future expansion and a variety of applications.
