    Abstract

    A serial data acquisition system architecture and its specifications for continuous impedance imaging are presented. The new system design avoids complexity and high cost associated with the parallel approach which is normally taken to obtain high speed in multi-channel measurements. The scheme involves applications of a video speed ADC device and mutiplexers, configured to scan through all the channels simultaneously. Non-uniform over-sampling technique is implemented through precision control of digitizing timing. With the system architecture, the multiple drive system is capable of achieving 16-bit data acquisition accuracy at a speed of 25 frames per second image production.
