Exclusive UK deal on acquisition boards

Amplicon Liveline has formed a new partnership with ExacqTechnologies, a leading manufacturer of PC-based data acquisitionproducts, as the current sole UK distributor of its products.

USAbased Exacq Technologies manufactures a range of multifunctionanalogue I/O and high-speed data acquisition boards in both PCIand PXI platforms.

The CH (PCI) and XH (PXI) models offer dualinput/output channels for simultaneous sampling at up to20Msample/s per channel.

The 16Mbyte onboard memory and PCIbusmastering provide glitch free capture and/or playback of waveformquality analogue signals.

The CM (PCI) and XM (PXI) modelsprovide 16 or 32 single-ended input channels (8 or 16differential channels) at sampling speeds of up to 1Msample/s.The boards provide a 64K location channel list, and with flexibletriggering are ideal for PC based measurement, high speedautomation and control applications.

All boards include 180MHzDSP coprocessors which enable FFT, digital filtering and PIDcontrol to be performed onboard leaving the Windows environmentfree to perform data analysis and graphing etc.

Drivers forLabView, TestPoint, Matlab, C++ and Visual Basic are suppliedwith every board, along with a complete software developers kitwith sample codes for the above drivers plus ActiveX controls.

Inaddition "Exacq Bench" software is supplied free ofcharge, which includes oscilloscope, spectrum and logic analyser,waveform and DC voltage generator, multimeter and strip chartmeasurement tools.

John Hayward, Amplicon's Data Acquisitionproduct manager commented: "These products offer a number ofunique features not available elsewhere in the market at verycompetitive prices.

We view this as a valuable partnership forupcoming developments, high level technology and uniquefunctionality".
