Abstract: A digital data recording apparatus, which can record the exact acquisition time of data, a sampling data identification method thereof, and a program for identifying sampling data, are provided. A CPU 11 reads out the program of a first conversion formula. The CPU 11 uses the first conversion formula to convert a time series of detection temperature data into a time series of actual oscillation frequencies f? of a reference clock signal. At a subsequent step, the CPU 11 calculates the respective normal sampling timings employing the current time as a reference time by dividing a time series of count values by each of the actual oscillation frequencies f? corresponding to the respective count values.

Abstract: A length measuring apparatus that uses an ultrasonic magnetostrictive delay line can detect a position with high accuracy by utilizing a reflected wave positively. In a measuring apparatus using an ultrasonic magnetostrictive delay line in which a wave transmitter (4) is disposed at one end of an ultrasonic magnetostrictive delay line (1), and the other end of the ultrasonic magnetostrictive delay line (1) is made an open end, a detecting coil (3) is wound around the outer periphery of the ultrasonic magnetostrictive delay line (1) over the whole area of the measuring range, a magnet piece (2) is disposed so as to become slidable along the ultrasonic magnetostrictive delay line (1) an a position of the magnet piece (2) is measured on the basis of a delay time of a detection pulse (B) produced in the detection coil (3) relative to a drive pulse (A) applied to the wave transmitter (4), a period (T.sub.
