APC330: PCI Analog Input Board

APC330 boards provide fast, high resolution A/D conversion.

The APC330 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.
