Summary

This book uses LabVIEW as its subject, organizing content around the LabVIEW programming environment, methods and techniques for processing data through programming, and tips for improving programming skills, with detailed introductions to commonly used LabVIEW programming methods, programming techniques, and application examples. The book has 11 chapters in total; Chapters 1–6 introduce basic LabVIEW programming knowledge, including the programming environment, data processing methods, program design, and NI data acquisition fundamentals, while Chapters 7–11 introduce hands-on practice in sensor data acquisition using LabVIEW with NI ELVIS. The book is rich in content, clearly structured, and highly practical, fully explaining programming techniques so that readers can quickly master program design methods. It is suitable for use as a comprehensive hands-on laboratory textbook in higher education institutions with limited class hours, as a self-study textbook for schools that do not offer LabVIEW courses, and also has reference value for readers who need to study systematically and pursue CLAD certification.

Editor's review

Published by Publishing House of Electronics Industry, LabVIEW Data Acquisition is written by Tang Gan, who has a deep technical background and extensive practical experience in the field of virtual instrumentation. The book systematically introduces the application of LabVIEW in data acquisition, covering everything from basic concepts to advanced programming techniques, and explains them with numerous engineering examples. As a technical monograph, it is more than an operation manual: it focuses on cultivating readers' ability to solve real engineering problems. It provides in-depth analysis of core steps such as data acquisition card configuration, signal conditioning, and real-time data processing, making it especially suitable for engineers who need to develop systems in industrial automation, test and measurement, and related fields. Compared with similar books, its highlight is its practice-oriented approach emphasizing the integration of software and hardware, offering many lessons drawn from frontline projects and avoiding the dullness of purely theoretical instruction. For readers who wish to gain an in-depth command of LabVIEW data acquisition technology, this is a professional book of considerable reference value.
