AcPC330: Analog Input CompactPCI Board

• 16D/32SE input channels
• ±5V, ±10V, 0-5V, and 0-10V input ranges
• 16-bit A/D converter, 8µS conversion time (125KHz)

AcPC330 boards provide fast, high resolution A/D conversion.

The AcPC330 has many features to improve your overall system throughput rate. You can scan all channels or define a subset for more frequent sampling. Burst mode scans selected channels at the maximum conversion rate. Uniform mode performs conversions at user-defined intervals. Both modes can scan continuously, or execute a single cycle upon receiving a trigger.

“Mail box” memory allows the CPU to read the latest data in 32 storage buffer registers without interrupting the A/D converter.

Features & Benefits
“Mail box” memory eliminates scanning interruptions for optimum throughput.
Data register indicates new and missed (overwritten) data values in the mail box.
Programmable interrupts simplify data acquisition by providing greater control.

AcPC341: Analog Input CompactPCI Board, Simultaneous Conversion

• 16 differential inputs

• ±10V DC input range

• Eight 14-bit A/D converters with simultaneous sample and hold

• 8µS conversion time for 8-channel bank

AcPC341 boards provide fast, high resolution, simultaneous A/D conversion of eight channels.

These boards have sixteen analog inputs which are sampled as two eight-channel banks. Eight A/D converters (ADCs) permit simultaneous conversion of all eight channels in a bank. All 16 channels share two generous 512-sample memory buffers. Conversion of each bank requires only 8µS, and all 16 channels can be sampled in just 16µs.

This board is ideal for high-speed data acquisition. A large memory buffer reduces CPU interactions for increased overall performance.

Flexible configuration options give you extensive control over the conversion process. The channels or bank to be converted, timing, scan mode, and other parameters are user-programmable. Interrupt support adds further control to interrupt upon a programmable threshold when the data in memory exceeds the set threshold.

Features & Benefits
