Data Translation is now shipping the DT9836 series of simultaneous analogue input multifunction data acquisition modules for USB 2.0.
The 12 separate 16-bit A/D channels on the DT9836 module guarantee less than 1ns aperture uncertainty.
All the analogue and digital subsystem functions are sampled simultaneously to yield a data throughput of 225kHz per channel.
This state of the art module offers uncompromised performance to the user, with simultaneous data capture on up to 12 parallel A/D channels.
Now a user with twelve very high speed source signals can sample all channels continuously at the same instant in time - a capability impossible until now.
Each analogue input on the DT9836 has its own A/D converter to eliminate phase shift between channels, a common problem with a multiplexed architecture where all inputs share one A/D converter.
Key features:.
All subsystems operate synchronously at 36MHz.
Six or 12 simultaneous, 16-bit analogue inputs at 225kHz per channel.
Two 16-bit analogue outputs for waveform generation at 500kHz per channel.
16 digital input and 16 digital output lines for external event synchronisation.
Two 32-bit counter timer channels offer flexible clocking and triggering.
Three quadrature decoders allow determination of X/Y positioning and rotation.
The DT9836 series ships with the Data Acquisition Omni CD, which includes device drivers for Windows 2000/XP, an evaluation version of DT Measure Foundry, Data Translation's test and measurement application builder, and several additional ready-to-measure applications.
For maximum flexibility the DT9836 Series operates under prominent software applications including Labview and Visual Basic.
The DT9836 series modules are available in two configurations: a BNC connection box and an OEM embedded version.
This series is shipping now.
