United Electronic Industries unveil four new analog input boards
United Electronic Industries launches the four new analog input boards. All four of the boards offer 8 analog input channels, 24-bit A/D resolution and 120 kilosample/second maximum sampling rates. All four boards also offer complete, 350 Vrms channel-to-channel and channel-to-chassis isolation. The DNR versions are for use with the company’s RACKtangle chassis, while the DNA versions are designed for installation into the PowerDNA Cube chassis.
The The boards provide simultaneous sampling and each channel is based on its own oversampled SAR converter. Input gains of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64 are fully software programmable. A diagnostic input mode flags open circuited connections and overvoltage conditions. The boards also go into a high impedance mode when power is removed, making them ideal for high reliability, redundant monitoring application.
Software included with the DNx-AI-218 and 228-300 provides a comprehensive yet easy to use API that supports all popular Windows programming languages. UEI also provides factory written drivers for all popular non-Windows operating systems including QNX, VxWorks, RTX, InTime, and more. Finally, the UEIDAQ Framework supplies complete support for those creating applications in data acquisition software packages such as LabVIEW, MATLAB/Simulink, DASYLab or any application which supports ActiveX or OPC servers.
