TDMS Format Files
With Data Acquisition Toolbox™ you can access NI TDMS format files on Windows® and the Debian® distribution of Linux®. You can read or write individual TDMS files, or with a
TDMSDatastore object you can read collections of TDMS
files simultaneously. You can also read data into tables or
timetables.
The TDMS functions are supported in MATLAB Online. (since R2026a)
