Introduction

Introduction	1

The DaqBoard/500 and DaqBoard/505 have 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog inputs multiplexed to a 16-bit A/D converter with maximum throughput of 200 kHz, programmable gains of 1, 2, 4 or 8, one counter input channel, two timer output channels, and 24 lines of digital I/O. In addition, DaqBoard/500 includes two clocked DACs.

The boards feature a DMA engine for optimum performance in supported Windows environments. Board connections are terminated in a 68-pin “high density” SCSI III connector at the rear of the PC.

Adigital calibration method is used for both analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog conversions. Please contact the factory should you believe your board to be in need of calibration.
