Data Acquisition and Control Hardware

I/O Boards used in the Mechanical Engineering undergraduate labs have the following specifications:

Board Model:   PCI-DAS1000   ( PCI Bus )
16 A to D channels in single-ended configuration or 8 channels in differential mode.
250 Khz maximum sampling rate,  24 bit digital I/O

Board Model:   PCIM-DAS1602/16  ( PCI Bus )
16 A to D channels in single-ended configuration or 8 channels in differential mode.
100 Khz maximum sampling rate, 2 D to A Channels, 24 bit digital I/O

Board Model:   CIO-DAS1602/16   ( ISA Bus )
16 A to D channels in single-ended configuration or 8 channels in differential mode.
100 Khz maximum sampling rate, 2 D to A Channels, 24 bit digital I/O

USB Versions: PMD-1208LS and PMD1208FS
