Scalable 16-Bit Data Acquisition
DAP 5016a
When your application needs Pentium-powered, real-time processing and 16-bit sampling under Windows, choose the DAP 5016a. Even at maximum sampling rates, the combination of a fast processor with low latency allows computation in real time between samples – and on-time response for control applications.

6-bit Data Acquisition Card
DAP 5216a
The DAP 5216a model adds 16-bit resolution to the proven capabilities of the DAP 5200a line. It has the same real-time processing power as the DAP 5200a. Real-time processing functions include smoothing, filtering, FFT, PID control, and responding to alarm conditions; the DAP 5216a also can scan high-speed data for trigger events in real time to capture pre-trigger as well as post-trigger data.

LVDS Board
MSXB 045
The MSXB 045 LVDS board works with multiple iDSC 1816 boards to provide synchronization for many channels of data. An MSXB 045 board in each of two or more networked PCs, that each contain one or more iDSC 1816 boards, allows the whole networked system to work as a single synchronized system with possibly hundreds of conditioned channels.

Data Acquisition Board
DAP 4200a
The DAP 4200a is an excellent choice for applications where there is a need for real-time processing of data in the time interval between samples, and for applications requiring fast sample rates. Much of the DAP 4200a design is similar to that of the DAP 3200a/415, but the DAP 4200a has a PCI host interface, and is capable of high speed data transfers to the host PC.

Expansion Board
MSXB 044
The MSXB 044 expansion board works with the iDSC 1816 to add signal conditioning to the data acquisition and anti-aliasing capabilities. Four MSXB 044 boards are included in each MSSC-8 module. Purchase the MSXB 044 as part of a complete SCS system: an enclosure and 1, 2, 3, or 4 MSSC-8 modules, for a total of 8, 16, 24, or 32 channels.

product
Multiple Digital Expansion Boards
MSXB 038
Multiple Digital Expansion Boards can be connected to a single DAP for a total of 128 digital input lines and 1024 digital output lines. Input expansion is at a maximum with eight MSXB 038 boards (128 points). Output can be expanded to 1024 points by connecting 64 MSXB 038 boards to a single DAP.

product
Quadrature Decoder Board
MSXB 050
The MSXB 050 Quadrature Decoder Board allows a Data Acquisition Processor to read quadrature-encoded signals through its digital port. Quadrature-encoded signals are often used to measure the angular velocity and angular position of wheels, gears, and motors.

product
Analog Isolation Board
MSXB 027
The MSXB 027 Analog Isolation Board accommodates up to 8 isolation modules in any combination of input and output. Up to 64 5B Analog Isolation Boards can be connected to a single DAP for a total of 512 isolated channels. When used in conjunction with Analog Output Expansion Boards, up to 66 of these channels can be specified as isolated analog outputs.

product
Signal Board
iDSC 1816
The iDSC 1816 board from Microstar Laboratories combines 16-bit resolution on eight simultaneous channels of data acquisition with brick-wall anti-alias filters on each channel. The iDSC 1816 samples analog inputs at a throughput of 1.2M samples per second, with the sampling rate on each channel ranging from 8 samples per second to 153.6k samples per second.

Signal Conditioning and Filtering
MSXB 067
The MSXB 067 Signal Conditioning Expansion Board provides analog signal conditioning for strain gauges, load cells, RTDs, and other resistive sensors. MSXB 067 provides a flexible interface for quarter-bridge, half-bridge, and full-bridge sensors, with two to six wires for each sensor, with or without voltage sense feedback. A small daughterboard supports user-supplied bridge completion resistors.
