PCI-MIO DAQ measuring current

PCI-MIO DAQ measuring current

‎03-07-2000 06:32 PM

Hi,

Is it true that PCI-MIO E series can only measure different voltage? If
I want to measure currents, I need to connect a small resistor and measure
the voltage drop? I guess this is the only way to measure currents, right?

Thanks!

Yup

I = V/R
