New cards from ComputerBoards allow encoder signals such as displacement data to be ported into PC applications without the need for add-on hardware - encoder support is built into the boards.
The PCI-DAC6703 offers 16 channels of 16bit (one part in 65,536) analogue output, and a maximum rate of 1111 updates per second on each channel.
The board also offers eight discrete bidirectional digital I/O lines to control relays and solenoids, and monitor switch and contact closures.
Useful design touches include the ability for the power-on state to be set by the user, so that, for example, the board does not inadvertently drive controlled hardware at full speed when switched on.
As ever with this MCC range, autocalibration is featured as standard: all that's needed is the supplied InstaCal software and a click of the mouse, with no potentiometers to adjust.
There's full support for software control through MCC's Universal Library.
