In the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) upgrade of ATLAS experiment in 2026, the new inner tracker detector will be installed. As a promising candidate for the outer layer of the inner tracker detector, the High Voltage CMOS (HV-CMOS) pixel sensors are being investigated by the ATLAS collaboration. A Front-End LInk eXchange (FELIX) based Data Acquisition (DAQ) system is developed for the R&D of the HV-CMOS sensors. A FELIX card with PCIe interface in the back-end is used to control, monitor, calibrate and read out the front-end electronics. In the front-end, a Xilinx evaluation board ZC706 works as the interface between the back- end and custom boards with HV-CMOS sensors and the readout ASIC. In conclusion, the DAQ system was successfully deployed for the testbeam experiment at CERN. Design of the DAQ system, the tuning of sensors and testbeam results will be described in details.
