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.

4-Channel, Sigma-Delta ADC Function Card
ProDAQ 3430
The ProDAQ 3430 is a 4-channel, sigma-delta ADC function card. Every channel contains front-end conditioning circuitry followed by a sigma-delta ADC. The bit stream from every ADC is then directed to finite impulse response (FIR) decimation filters. Users can activate up to 10 stages of the FIR filters. The filtered data from the selected stages is then stored in the FIFO. The data from the FIFO easily can be moved on-the-fly to the motherboard or to the host.

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.

Ultra-Performance Motherboard Module
ProDAQ 3180
The ProDAQ 3180 ultra-performance motherboard is a register-based VXIbus device supporting single-word transfer and block transfer of 16-bit and 32-bit words. It can be configured for both the A16 and A32 address space. The improved VXIbus interface of the ProDAQ 3180 is compatible to the VXI-1 Rev 4.0 standard and supports the 2eVME and 2eSST protocols, which allow for backplane transfers at data rates of up to 320 MB/s (theoretically). Depending on the slot-0 controller used, the ProDAQ 3180 can sustain data transfers up to 240 MB/s.

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.
