The requirements are sampling at 16 bit resolution at a rate of 4Hz. The incoming signal is from thermocouples mainly and shouldn't exceed 100mv. If anyone knows of articles and/or places which might help with some questions, it would be greatly appreciated. Someone here also mentioned that filtering and grounding are important considerations. Is this true? Please respond via e-mail at the address below as I am borrowing someone's account. advTHANKSvance Pavneet Arora ...!utgpu!rom!pavneet Royal Ontario Museum 100 Queen's Park Toronto, Ontario M5S 2C6 (416) 585-5626
