BASE Modular PC Boards for Measurement Data Acquisition and Control
BASE Modular PC Boards for Measurement Data Acquisition and Control
Base Board Models BASE-PCI (PCI-BASEII), BASE-PCIe (PCIE-BASE) and Add-on Cards MADDA16II, MDA16-4I
The BASE series are basic DAQ boards for the PCI- or PCI-Express bus. The cards have on-board digital-I/O channels and counters, more functions are added individually with easy to install add-on cards. Analog plug-on modules are available differing in the number of inputs and outputs, resolution and sampling rate.
- 2 module slots.
- 32 digital channels (2x 16 bit, TTL/CMOS).
- 3 counters (32 bit, 1 MHz) for pulse or incremental encoder measurements.
- 4k FIFO for fast data acquisition.
- PCI bus or PCIe bus compatible (PCI-Express x1).
- Transferrate max. 1 Megasample.
- I/O connectivity: 37-pin D-sub female.
- Driver software included. Supported by the software NextView.
