Mouser Electronics has just launched a new Instrumentation Applications Site. This new applications site on Mouser.com offers developers component guidelines and system requirements for building instrumentation and data acquisition systems.

The new Instrumentation Applications Site, available on Mouser.com has several sections designed to help developers build instrumentation systems. The Applications section provides articles, resources and videos on building instrumentation and data acquisition systems including design guidelines for high performance data acquisition systems, input protection for analog to digital converters (ADCs), what typical values in a datasheet really mean, and when to use a high precision programmable current source. The Articles section provides reference information on the design challenges and solutions when building instrumentation projects. The Resources section contains many useful videos, articles, and white papers to assist developers in solving instrumentation design challenges. Last, the Featured Products section offers direct links to products useful in designing instrumentation and data acquisition systems including Analog Devices AD7176-2 Sigma-Delta ADCs, Freescale Kinetis K-Series Cortex-M0+ microcontrollers, and Molex EdgeLine High Speed Connectors.

Mouser Electronics offers a variety of products appropriate for instrumentation and data acquisition systems from more than 500 manufacturers to assist developers in achieving the most accurate instrumentation design appropriate for their target application. In addition, Mouser’s product comparison feature allows developers to do side-by-side comparisons of their selected product’s features and specifications, allowing them to compare product specifications and quickly select the proper components for their designs.
