PCI Express x4 Copper Cable
ProDAQ 8034
-
The ProDAQ 8034 PCI Express x4 copper cable connects crates equipped with the ProDAQ 3026 Low-Cost PCI Express VXIbus slot-0 interface or the 3030 PCI Express VXIbus slot-0 interface to the ProDAQ 3261 PCI Express host interface. The cable transmits four PCI Express lanes and sideband signals with transfer rates of up to 10 Gbps full-duplex. The robust, shielded cable and the die-cast connectors with latching mechanism ensure a stable connection and prevent accidental disconnects.

8-Channel, 100 MHz Counter/Timer/Frequency Meter Function Card
ProDAQ 3808
-
The ProDAQ 3808 function card, an enhanced version of the ProDAQ 3806 counter/timer function card, is designed to operate in one of three modes: pulse counter, frequency meter, or time interval counter. In the pulse counter and frequency measurement modes, users can process incoming signals of up to 25 MHz on each of the six channels. A time interval counter range is divided into six sub-ranges, covering times from 40 ns to 20000 s with a maximum resolution of 10 ns. For pulse-width measurements, the same ranges apply.

Programmable Voltage Reference Plug-In
ProDAQ 3202
-
The ProDAQ 3202 voltage reference card is used in the ProDAQ 3180 ultra-performance motherboards and LXI function card carriers. The ProDAQ 3202 voltage reference card is plugged directly onto the motherboard or carrier and can distribute the reference voltage to all ProDAQ function cards via two signal lines. This allows the distribution as a differential signal to overcome possible noise pick-up.

16-Channel RTD Signal Conditioning Card
ProDAQ 5821
-
The ProDAQ 5821 series of Signal Conditioning Cards is designed to interface with a variety of sensors, principally RTDs, Thermistors, Cryogenic Diodes and Voltage type sensors. Each version of the 5821 provides the capability of precise 4-wire measurement. In order to achieve this, a precise 500μA constant current source is provided per channel. The current source can be disabled on a per channel basis and is monitored to ensure that current is flowing. The value of the output current is stored on-board after calibration. In order to achieve the highest accuracy the output current may be automatically calibrated 'on-the-fly' using the ProDAQ 3416 24-bit Sigma-Delta ADC card and an on-board precision resistor.

LXI Function Card Carriers
ProDAQ 6100 Series
-
Ethernet-based LXI is changing the way engineers and scientists perform test and measurement and data acquisition. As more and more PCs ship without expansion slots, customers are faced with the problem of replacing their test and measurement and data acquisition equipment. Bustec believes in the power of distributed systems and the use of IEEE standards.
