[sci.electronics] A/D conversion

romwa@gpu.utcs.toronto.edu (Mark Dornfeld) (10/21/88)

The mineralogy dept. here is interested in doing some A/D
conversion on a PC.  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.
