Non-isolated type high speed high performance analog input board for PCI AD12-16U(PCI)EV

Non-isolated type high speed high performance analog input board for PCI AD12-16U(PCI)EV

Product catalog summary
Overview: The AD12-16U(PCI)EV is a high-speed analog input board for PCI interfaces, offering 12-bit resolution and 1μs conversion speed per channel. It includes a 16M data buffer memory, supports various trigger conditions, and features one analog output channel, four TTL digital input channels, and four TTL digital output channels.
Specifications: The board supports single-ended (16 channels) and differential (8 channels) input modes with bipolar and unipolar input ranges. It has a maximum input voltage of ±15V and an input impedance of 1MΩ or more. The analog output range is bipolar ±10V / ±5V or unipolar 0 to +10V, with an output current capacity of ±5mA.
Features: Equipped with FIFO or RING buffer memory for 16M data, the board allows independent sampling from the PC's processing power. Sampling can be triggered by software, analog signal strength, or TTL signals. It supports MATLAB and LabVIEW and includes a software-based calibration function.
Software Support: The board includes API-PAC(W32) for Windows and API-AIO(LNX) for Linux, offering driver libraries and sample programs. C-LOGGER software enables data logging and dynamic transfer to Excel.
Optional Accessories: Available accessories include various cables, BNC terminal units, buffer amplifier boxes, and low pass filter accessories. The board supports expansion with sample & hold boards and isolated expansion accessory boards.
Physical and Environmental Specifications: The board measures 176.41mm x 105.68mm, weighs 150g, and operates within 0 - 50°C and 10 - 90% RH (non-condensing). It requires a +5V power supply and supports a 32-bit, 33MHz PCI bus specification.
Specifications and Connections:
  • Digital Inputs and Outputs: Includes interrupt and counter outputs. Avoid connecting outputs to each other or ground.
  • Analog Input Modes: Single-ended and Differential modes are detailed. Shielded cables are recommended for noise reduction.
  • Analog Output Connections: Instructions for connecting outputs using flat or shielded cables are provided. Avoid shorting outputs to ground or power lines.
  • Digital I/O and Control Signals: Interfaced through connector CN2 with optional cables for external connections. All signals are TTL level.
Warnings and Cautions:
  • Avoid connecting outputs to ground or each other to prevent damage.
  • Ensure input signals do not exceed maximum voltage.
  • Use shielded cables for long distances or high noise environments.
Product Comparison:
  • Compares AD12-16U(PCI)EV with a past version (AD12-16U(PCI)EH), noting differences in power consumption and dimensions.

Non-isolated type high speed high performance analog input board for PCI AD12-16U(PCI)EV-1

Ver.1.01 High-Speed Analog Input Board for PCI AD12-16U(PCI)EV * Specifications, color and design of the products are subject to change without notice. This product is PCI-compliant interface boards that convert analog input signals to digital data (performing analog-to-digital conversion). This product carries high-capacity buffer memory for 16M data for analog input, allowing background sampling to be performed in a variety of trigger conditions. This product also has one analog output channel, four channels for TTL level digital input, and four channels for TTL level digital output. This product is the high-speed type that performs A-D conversion at a conversion speed of 1μsec/ch and a resolution of 12-bit. Using the bundled API function library package [API-PAC(W32)], you can create Windows application software for this board in your favorite programming language supporting Win32 API functions, such as Visual Basic or Visual C++. It can also collect data easily without a program when the data logger software [C-LOGGER] stored on the attached CD-ROM is used. With plug-ins for the dedicated libraries, the board also supports MATLAB and LabVIEW. This product is partly improved from the past analog E series; it is an upward-compatible product. Basically, this product can therefore be used in the same way as the analog E series. This product is different in specification from the E series. The difference point is shown in “Differences between past analog E and this product”. Features Resolution :12-bit, combination speed : 1μsec/ch This product is the high-speed type that performs A-D conversion at a conversion speed of 1μ sec/ch and a resolution of 12-bit. The product has analog input 16ch, analog output 1ch, digital input/output (TTL level: four each), and a counter (32-bit, TTL level 1ch). In addition, the analog input can be set to single-end input 16ch or differential input 8ch, while the counter is commonly used as the digital input/output. Equipped with high-capacity buffer memory for 16M data and a variety of sampling control functions FIFO or RING buffer memory for 16M data, allowing sampling to be performed as a background task independent of the processing power of the PC. Capable of starting and stopping sampling not only by software commands but depending on the strength of an analog signal (via conversion data comparison) or by detection of a TTL level signal (external trigger). Sixteen single-ended channels or eight differential channels (Analog input function) These boards allow either single-ended or differential input mode that is selected with on-board jumpers. The order of channels subject to signal conversion can be preset in the dedicated register. Using an optional unit, a board can increase the maximum number of input channels (up to 32 channels) and perform simultaneous sampling. Abundant optional units Providing a variety of options available for extending the functions, including buffer amplifier, simultaneous sampling, insulation & current/thermocouple input, low pass filter, and cables. Software-based calibration function Calibration of analog input/output can be all performed by software. Apart from the adjustment information prepared before shipment, additional adjustment information can be stored according to the use environment. Supported to the data logger software [C-LOGGER] Supporting the data logger software [C-LOGGER] that enables the graph display of recorded signal data, file saving, and dynamic transfer to the spreadsheet software program “Excel” Plug-ins for the dedicated libraries, the board also supports MATLAB and LabVIEW. We offer a dedicated library [ML-DAQ], which allows you to use this product on MATLAB by the MathWorks as well as another dedicated library [VI-DAQ], which allows you to use the product on LabVIEW. These dedicated libraries are available, free of charge (downloadable), on our web site. Mixed on-board channels for analog output and digital I/O One channel for analog output, four channels for TTL level digital input, and four channels for TTL level digital output mixed on the board.
