Introduction

ADLINIK DAQ-2501 and DAQ-2502 are high-speed and high-performance analog output multifunction DAQ cards. The devices are able to update up to 8-CH, 12-bit analog outputs simultaneously at sustaining 1 MS/s. The reference sources and the output polarities are programmable on per channel basis, combining with the multiplying DAC architecture, ADLINK DAQ-2500 series DAQ cards can generate complex modulated analog signals. The hardware-based arbitrary waveform generation frees the CPU intervention even when all analog outputs are updating at full speed, and the lengths of waveforms are only limited by the system memory. The DAQ-2500 series integrate up to 8-CH, 400 kS/s, 14-bit single-ended analog inputs with programmable polarity, 24-CH programmable digital I/O lines, and 2-CH 16-bit general-purpose timer/counters.
