PC/104 data acquisition products are designed to meet the requirements of the PC/104 standard. This standard was created to help expand the capabilities data acquisition products for use embedded applications where PCs are used as controllers within laboratory instruments, communications devices, medical equipment, test equipment, and more.

By standardizing PC/104 data acquisition hardware and software around the broadly supported PC architecture, embedded system designers can substantially reduce development costs, risks, and time.

PC/104 data acquisition products are significantly less expensive than traditional non-PC bus architectures such as STD, VME, and Multibus. This means lower product development costs.

Companies that embed microcomputers as controllers within their products seek ways to reap the benefits of using PC/104 data acquisition products. Standard PC bus form-factor (12.4" x 4.8") and its associated card cages and backplanes are too cumbersome.

PC/104 data acquisition products were developed in response to this need. It offers full architecture, hardware, and software compatibility with the PC bus, but in ultra-compact (3.6" x 3.8") stackable modules. PC/104 is therefore ideally suited to the unique requirements of embedded control applications.
