APCI-3120 Multifunction Board

Quick Overview

The APCI-3120 is a PCI Multifunction board for up to 16 single ended or 8 differential inputs with 16-bit resolution and 100kHz throughput, plus 4 analog outputs. Freely programmable ±10V and 0-20mA analogue inputs plus four -10 to +10V analogue outputs via a 37-pin Sub-D male connector and 4 digital input, 4 digital output channels via a 16-pin male connector. 64-bit drivers for Windows and Linux as well as programming samples are included, real-time drivers for Windows and Linux are available on request.

Details

The APCI-3120 is a 16-bit multifunction board for 3.3V and 5V PCI systems, with optical isolation and a high throughput rate of 100 kHz. The PCI board has additional types of conversion: Sequence RAM, Auto Refresh, scan, timer or external event.

Furthermore, the board has a PCI DMA, 2 watchdogs, 4 digital inputs and 4 digital outputs. Sensors, which allow to supply current signals instead of voltage signals, also can be acquired with the APCI-3120, as this board offers up to 16 current inputs. The board is protected against overvoltage and input filters and it is protected against high frequency emission. With the free calibration tool you can do the fine adjustment on-site.

Safety Features

Optical isolation 500 V min.
Creeping distance IEC 61010-1
