AP7308-channel analog and digital I/O AcroPack module with 32-bit counter/timer
- Manufacturer
- Configurations
- 2 available configurations
AP730 brings together in a single AcroPack slot the functions that normally occupy several modules: differential analog inputs, analog outputs, digital I/O and counting/timing. It mounts on AcroPack carriers in conduction-cooled embedded systems between −40 and 85 °C, with the AP-CC-01 kit above 70 °C.
What sets it apart is the density of functions per slot, not specialisation in a single one: 32 Mb of onboard flash store the factory calibration constants, while the software packages for Windows, VxWorks and Linux handle DMA transfers to the PCIe bus.
Available in two configurations: AP730E-LF with 16-bit DAC and AP731E-LF with 12-bit DAC.
