Abstract
A data acquisition system which includes data generating and processing units (), each of which includes a respective data source () which serves to generate data. The data each time generated is processed by means of associated data processing means () in such a manner that each time a digital data word which comprises at least two bits is presented for output. The output of the digital data words takes place in synchronous-parallel fashion in dependence on first control signals (). Shift registers () which are coupled to one another so as to form a chain propagate the digital data words in synchronous-parallel fashion in dependence on second control signals () and are coupled to a respective associated data generating and processing unit ().
