Super precision from data acquisition series
A new series of data acquisition cards from Strategic Test has been designed for measurements that require simultaneous sampling at a maximum sampling rate of 1MHz.
Data acquisition card has RTOS onboard
The new MAX6pci data acquisition card can be configured with one or more MAX-PC CPU modules to handle time- or safety-critical tasks on a test rig.
Unlike most COTS embedded SBCs, the Zeon contains a wide-range onboard 8 to 36V DC power supply with reverse voltage and transient surge protection - making it suitable for automotive (car and truck) and industrial applications alike.
Other key features include: a 206MHz Intel SA-1110 processor; 32Mbyte Flash memory; 64Mbyte SDRAM; 10/100BaseT Ethernet; two USB interfaces; four RS232 ports; two serial ports (typically used to connect cellular modems); two RS485 ports for connecting distributed data acquisition devices and a LCD interface.
On request, Strategic Test can supply the Zeon with a suitable GSM, GPRS or CDMA 2000 1xRTT cellular modem that can be configured to wake up the system by remote request to extend the potential battery life - an important feature for automotive telematic and environmental monitoring applications The Zeon is supplied with either Windows CE or Linux.
Complete development kits with 8in touchscreen LCD display and mains power adapter are available.
Strategic Test also provides design and manufacturing services for turnkey StrongARM-based projects.
