Imatek data acquisition systems are based around the C3008 controller and a PC running the ImpAcqt software. This is a general-purpose system for analysing the results of high-speed tests, such as impact testing and high-speed servo-hydraulic testing.
Key features:
Analogue channels: 4 as standard, 16 optional. All channels sampled simultaneously at the maximum sample rate
Digital channel: Quadrature encoded input in addition to analogue channels
Resolution: 16-bit (1 in 65536), no missing codes
Sample rate: 3,000,000 samples per second (maximum)
Sample depth: Up to 50,000 samples per channel
Gain: Input range ?10V, ?5V, ?2.5V, ?1.25V software selectable
Input mode: Differential, bi-polar or uni-polar, selected per channel.
Bandwidth: 1.5MHz
Signal to noise: <2 bit system noise
Gain error: ?0.1% maximum
Trigger: By velocity-measurement laser, external TTL trigger in, analogue channels (trigger level configurable). Rising/falling edge. 0% to 100% pre-triggering. Trigger output.
Timing: Velocity measurement by time-of-flight, 20ns resolution
Digital input: 26 channel opto-isolated input
Digital output: 18 channel NPN output, short-circuit and over-current protected.
High speed camera: Camera trigger output and lighting controller output to interface to high-speed video systems. See separate data sheet for details.
