A nice project - thanks for your write-up, Jan!

I had used LabView (releases LV8.0, LV 2009 and LV2014) in the past for similar projects. However, I had changed my mind a bit and I am learning some Python programming and https://pyvisa.readthedocs.io/ PyVisa now.
LabView allows one to create very nice GUIs and post-processing, but even with the extensive use of subVIs more complex projects turn into hard-to-comprehend visual coding.

Really no offense here, as I think this is a great project - but if you were to explain the data flow of your code to another person, this would take you some serious amount of time...

Cheers,

M.

This looks like an interesting project Jan. Are you trying to characterize the ADCs to later calibrate them?

Which are you using, LabVIEW or LabVIEW NXG [I can't easily make out what the differences are, though one seems to be 32-bit and the other 64-bit]? Perhaps it's really obvious and I'm just being dense.

Here's a link if anyone wants to take a look, though it's easy enough to find on a search engine.

I've added a PDF of the flow - allows you to see the flow in full detail without LabVIEW.

Very nice test project and blog. No doubt it will be a useful concept that gets reused multiple times.

Kind regards.
