PDA Labview Question

[Country Loon]

I need a spectrum analysis on a PDA. Can I use LabVIEW for this.I have not
used the smaller version for PDAs - is it fully compatible and what I/O
cards are available for up to say 100kHz.

Thanks

Tom

Yes, you can perform spectrum analysis on a PDA. While the LabVIEW PDA module (software required to run LabVIEW on the PDA) is limited in the functionality of a development system, data acquisition and analysis are still supported.

To give an idea on the speed of this performance, we have created a benchmark of a standard application. Please see this link. [broken link removed]

If you want more general information on which DAQ products are supported for PDAs, please see the overview on the LabVIEW PDA Product Page. [product page no longer available]

Let me know if you have further questions. Remember that our Field Engineer in your area is willi
ng to demo the features to you - if you want.

Thanks Philip but I cannot get your link to work. I removed the html stuff
and have

Can you please verify this link?

Thanks

Hi Tom,

The document I was trying to show you is actually not up to date with the current speeds of today�s PDAs, so we don�t want to use it as an official reference benchmark.

What I can tell you is that even with the �old� LabVIEW PDA 7.0, you were able to perform spectral measurements of a 500,000kS/s 12 bit analog input signal using the NI DAQCard-6062E PCMCIA card.

Note that if you want greater resolution we have the NI DAQCard-6036E that sports a full 16 bit resolution at 200,000kS/s.
