signal integration

Hello everyone,
I`m new in using LabVIEW and also here so I apologize in advance if I put this topic in wrong area.
I`m using  LabView and the USB-6351 for experimental depiction of the BH-loop for different magnetic cores (f = 100kHz). For H, things are clear but for  B  I`m thinking two options..i) two use the signalexpress  and ii) use and RC integrator in my circuit and then acquire the signal. What would you propose? Is it more difficult or maybe worse (regarding the time consuming) to use the signalexpress to measure the integral of my signal?

Thanks in advance

SignalExpress is a data acquisition software package that is ready-to-run.  It allows you to easily take data, analyze it, and store it without writing any code.  It can generate code into LabVIEW of most projects you create.  If SignalExpress supports the measurement you wish to take, it is easier to use than LabVIEW for data acquisition.  Unfortunately, SignalExpress does not directly support integration.  You would need to create a LabVIEW plugin for it to do this.  At that point, it is easier to use LabVIEW, which does have integration functions.

 

My recommendation is to use LabVIEW for you problem.  Take your raw data (the DAQ Assistant makes this fairly easy), then use one of the integration subVIs to do your integration.  It is much easier to tweak integration parameters in software than in hardware.

 

If you need further help, let us know.  LabVIEW ships with lots of examples, so there is no need to start your project from scratch.  Look through them, pick one that is close to what you want, and modify it to finish up.  Good luck!

Hi,

 

I have the same problem I am trying to get the BH loop by integrating the induced voltage and plotting it against applied voltage. I was wondering if you got your BH loop working ? Are you plotting voltage? or you are plotting actuall magnetic field values?

I haven't b it built the vi yet cause i didn't work on my project for the last few days. Hopefully I'm back in work from tomorrow so i will inform for any possible solutions 😉
