Using Intelligent Oversampling to Extract Important Information

Oversampling is a feature whereby a data acquisition instrument can sample data at a faster rate than what is being reported in the software. Intelligent Oversampling allows the instrument to evaluate the data that isn’t being reported, and yield just the information you’re looking for (average, maximum, minimum, the DC equivalent or frequency, for example).

Our latest YouTube playlist demonstrates how intelligent oversampling works, and shows you how it is used in conjunction with WinDaq data acquisition software to derive average, minimum, maximum, RMS and Frequency data.
