DESCRIPTION:
FEATURES
ACE100DS REV. E JAN 2007
The ACE100 is a complete, easy to use system for
evaluation of Thaler's ADC100 series of Analog to
Digital Converters.
ADC100
ADC150
ADC180
By
eliminating
bread-boards
and
prototypes,
evaluation and design-in cycle times are reduced.
Connections to the evaluation board include a DB9
serial cable, power supply inputs (+5, +15, -15,
GND), and analog inputs to the ADC (IN HIGH /
IN LOW).
The evaluation board has 2 high precision Thaler
± 5 V and ± 10 V references that can be used as
inputs to the ADC or the user can supply their own
DC source.
The evaluation board also has on-board RAM for
storing up to 8k ADC readings which can then be
transferred to the PC and displayed on the screen
or stored in a file.
The power supply inputs require banana plugs to
mate with the jacks on the evaluation board.
The evaluation software is provided on a CDROM.
The software is menu driven and provides the user
with a complete selection of options for evaluating
the A/D converter. Data collection to a text file is a
software selectable option for individuals who
prefer to use external software packages for data
analysis.
