The 104-AIO16-16E features 11 standard analog input ranges and a filtered, extremely quiet front end. The module also offers on-board hardware oversampling for additional noise reduction. In addition to direct data transfers, the board’s ability to trigger the A/D in real time assures synchronized sampling that is unaffected by other computer operations — an essential requirement for signal, vibration and transient analysis where high data rates must be sustained for short periods of time. The 250kHz sampling rate is supported by a 2K-sample data FIFO (optional, up to 32K samples) for reducing processor overhead. Sixteen parallel bits of digital I/O and two 12-bit D/A outputs allow for a complete, high-performance data acquisition solution.
