M.2-AIO16-16F M.2 Card with 16 Single-Ended or 8 Differential Analog Inputs and 4 Analog Outputs

The M.2-AIO16-16F is an ideal solution for adding S capabilities to any computer with an M.2 slot.

The M.2-AIO16-16F is a 16-bit resolution A/D & D/A board with two simultaneous 1MHz A/D converters, with 8 single ended or 4 differential analog inputs multiplexed to each ADC. Each channel can be independently software configured to accept any of 8 different input ranges. Four analog outputs with uni- and bipolar 5 and 10 volt ranges and a ±2.5V range round out the feature set.

The “FDS” model includes a new DMA-driven hardware-timed buffered DAC output feature, “DAC Waveform Streaming”. This feature allows one or more of the DACs to output voltage levels at a software-configurable rate as high as 1 million samples/second. Although the maximum rate is divided by the number of DACs being used, all DACs’ outputs update simultaneously on the hardware clock’s tick — all four DACs can output simultaneous data at 250 kilosamples/second, or one at 1 MHz! All the data is transferred by DMA to minimize CPU utilization, with IRQs so applications can send additional buffers of data as needed.

This tiny analog I/O board provides the user with everything needed to start acquiring and controlling signals in a variety of applications. The mPCIe-AIO16-16F data acquisition board can be used in many current real-world applications such as embedded equipment monitoring, precision PC-based and portable environmental measurements, and mobile data acquisition. The board is designed to be used in rugged industrial environments and is double sided, mPCIe F1 sized.

Applications: Optical Networking, Instrumentation, Multichannel Data Acquisition and system monitoring, Automatic Test Equipment, Process Control and Industrial Automation, Power line monitoring.
