CompactDAQ Modules
The NI CompactDAQ™ (cDAQ) Modules provide modular, high-accuracy input and output for data acquisition and measurement applications across laboratory, industrial, and field environments. Designed to work seamlessly with NI CompactDAQ chassis, these modules enable precise measurement and generation of real-world signals with synchronized, reliable performance. CompactDAQ modules support a wide range of I/O types, including analog input, analog output, digital I/O, counter/timer functions, and specialty measurements such as temperature, strain, vibration, sound, and motion. Their hot-swappable, modular design allows engineers to quickly configure and reconfigure systems to meet changing measurement requirements. NI CompactDAQ Modules are widely used in product validation, electronics testing, structural and environmental monitoring, academic research, and industrial automation. With rugged options available for harsh conditions and tight integration with NI software, CompactDAQ modules provide a scalable and dependable foundation for flexible data acquisition systems.
