Counter/Timer Board
MSXB 036
The MSXB 036 Counter/Timer Board is used for frequency counting, rotational speed (tachometer) measurement, and closed loop process control based on frequency criteria. Engine performance monitoring is a typical application. The Counter/Timer Board provides 16 digital input lines and 16 digital output lines, counts up to 6 MHz on 10 channels, and has two 100 MHz frequency prescalers.

Sampling Boards
MSXB 028
Simultaneous Sampling Boards are used in multichannel spectral analysis and other applications that require simultaneous acquisition of several channels. The MSXB 028 usually is used for applications that require interchannel phase measurements such as applications that perform transfer function computations. This board eliminates phase error introduced by sequential sampling.

Isolated Analog Input Expansion Board
MSXB 084
The MSXB 084 Isolated Analog Input Expansion Board provides isolated analog inputs for DAP systems. Use these boards to eliminate ground currents – a potential source of noise in your measurement and control signals – and eliminate timing skew.

product
Analog Output Expansion Board
MSXB 032
The MSXB 032 Analog Output Expansion Board converts digital inputs from a Data Acquisition Processor into four separate analog outputs. Up to 16 Analog Output Expansion Boards can be connected to a Data Acquisition Processor for a maximum expansion of 64 analog output channels. The MSXB 032 is compatible with Microstar Laboratories Industrial Enclosures.

Isolated 16-Bit Analog Output Board
MSXB 076
The Microstar Laboratories Isolated 16-Bit Analog Output Board, part number MSXB 076, provides isolated analog outputs for Data Acquisition Processor (DAP) systems. Use these boards to eliminate ground currents – a potential source of noise in your measurement and control signals – as well as to eliminate phase errors from analog outputs in your application.

Expansion Board
MSXB 044
The MSXB 044 expansion board works with the iDSC 1816 to add signal conditioning to the data acquisition and anti-aliasing capabilities. Four MSXB 044 boards are included in each MSSC-8 module. Purchase the MSXB 044 as part of a complete SCS system: an enclosure and 1, 2, 3, or 4 MSSC-8 modules, for a total of 8, 16, 24, or 32 channels.

product
Filtered Analog Input Expansion Board
MSXB 048
The MSXB 048 Filtered Analog Input Expansion Board has a four-pole low-pass Butterworth filter on each of its 16 single-ended channels. For DAP applications that require analog filters to take out all above-Nyquist frequencies before signal conversion, it simply replaces the MSXB 037 Analog Input Expansion board. Signal inputs normally connect to the MSXB 048 through a panel-mount DB-37 connector.

product
Multiple Digital Expansion Boards
MSXB 038
Multiple Digital Expansion Boards can be connected to a single DAP for a total of 128 digital input lines and 1024 digital output lines. Input expansion is at a maximum with eight MSXB 038 boards (128 points). Output can be expanded to 1024 points by connecting 64 MSXB 038 boards to a single DAP.

Data Acquisition Processor Board
DAP 5200a
The DAP 5200a model brings many more real-time data acquisition and control applications within the scope of Windows systems. Its onboard 400 MHz processor substantially increases the real-time processing power of the top end of the DAP line. Real-time processing functions include smoothing, filtering, FFT, PID control, and responding to alarm conditions;

Signal Conditioning and Filtering
MSXB 067
The MSXB 067 Signal Conditioning Expansion Board provides analog signal conditioning for strain gauges, load cells, RTDs, and other resistive sensors. MSXB 067 provides a flexible interface for quarter-bridge, half-bridge, and full-bridge sensors, with two to six wires for each sensor, with or without voltage sense feedback. A small daughterboard supports user-supplied bridge completion resistors.

Data Acquisition Processor Board
DAP 5000a
When your application needs Pentium-powered real-time processing under Windows, choose the DAP 5000a. Even at maximum sampling rates, the combination of a fast processor with low latency allows computation in real time between samples – and on-time response for control applications.
