Abstract:
A system may include a data acquisition hardware device (DAQ) for acquiring sample data and/or generating control signals, and a host system with memory that may store data samples and information associated with the DAQ and host system operations. The DAQ may push hardware status information to host memory, triggered by predetermined events taking place in the DAQ, e.g. timing events or interrupts. The DAQ may update dedicated buffers in host memory with status data for any of these events. The pushed status information may be read in a manner that allows detection of race conditions, and may be used to handle data acquisition, output control signaling, and interrupts as required without the host system having to query the DAQ. The DAQ may also detect data timing errors and report those data timing errors back to the host system, and also provide improved output operations using counters.

Claim (Index 15):
A data acquisition system comprising:\n a communication bus; a host system coupled to the communication bus; and a data acquisition device coupled to the communication bus and configured to:\n receive incoming data over the communication bus from the host system; and \n perform data timing error correction, wherein in performing the data timing error correction, the data acquisition device is configured to:\n in response to expected first data of the incoming data not being available for a present sample clock period, report to the host system a first-type error corresponding to the present sample clock period and create a record of the reported first-type error; \n in response to more than the expected first data being available for the present sample clock period, report to the host system a second-type error corresponding to the present sample clock period and create a record of the reported second-type error; and \n report to the host system whether expected second data of the incoming data has been correctly received for a most recent previous sample clock period.
