Overview

ABSTRACT

This article recalls the overall architecture of an acquisition and data processing chain via a microprocessor before focusing on information processing hardware and software. The microprocessor is presented in its environment, the various existing peripheral circuits (slave, interface, etc.) are described and the design of the part related to their operation is explained. The specificities of programming are then detailed: the real-time operation, as well as the importance of choice of the programming language and switch management.

Read this article from a comprehensive knowledge base, updated and supplemented with articles reviewed by scientific committees.

 INTRODUCTION

This article reviews the architecture of a microprocessor-based data acquisition and processing chain, distinguishing its fundamental components and illustrating their specific roles with selected examples. This broad overview is divided into two sections: the first [R 525v2] was devoted to sensors and associated measurement chains, while this one focuses on hardware data processing, while highlighting a few special precautions to be taken when using software.
