We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Analogue inputs", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Speedy samplers connect via PCI Express from Strategic Test, which we summarised at the time by saying "Advanced features include options for dual-timebase sampling, synchronous digital inputs, asynchronous digital I/O and the possibility to synchronise up to 4336 channels". Earlier in the week, we featured the news release GPS system meets automotive needs from Media Systems: "The Car Securer 3.00 Starter Kit contains all relevant hardware and software components and documentation necessary for field tests, demonstrations, system integration and software development".
 
In January 2008, we covered the news from Goepel Electronic concerning its PXI 3060 and basicMOST 3060 - take a look at MOST communications put to the test which says: "The PXI 3060 and basicMOST 3060 have been designed for communication applications in general test and measurement technologies, in particular for vehicle control units".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Silicon Image, Input processor eases HDTV redesigns, as well as 16-channel convertor speeds to 1Msample/s from austriamicrosystems, and MCUs have Ethernet MACs and open source stacks from Cyan Technology.
