After a fresh W10 1703 fully updated install on a 3148 Inspiron laptop, four OTHER DEVICES appear in Device Manager: PCI Data Aqquisition and Signal Processing Controller and three 'unknown devices.' "Drivers not installed; no compatible driver can be found."

Intel's update utility reports nothing missing. SFC is good and PC operation is normal.
The errant entries are redetected at boot even if disabled, or uninstalled via Safe Mode.

Best I can tell, these are all related to the Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework, as suspected.  Earlier, two drivers with that general designation, yet unique, were added after the install.

Problem is, the drivers listed by Dell for the 3148 are tagged W8/8.1, and there are several - different from those Dell had available a few months ago - so it's not clear which, if any, apply to W10.  Perhaps you do.  In reality, more recent drivers may be in force.
