PCIe MiniCard handles 16-bit data acquisition

The DS-MPE-DAQ0804 rugged data acquisition PCIe MiniCard module adds analog and digital I/O features to embedded applications. It offers eight 16-bit analog inputs, four 16-bit analog outputs, and 14 configurable digital I/O lines in an extremely small 2.0 x 1.18 inch form factor.

The card has a 100 KHz aggregate analog sample rate and a 2048 sample A/D FIFO with programmable threshold. It operates over -40° to 85°C from a 3.3 V supply and takes approximately 3 W. The digital I/O lines can be configured as four 24-bit pulse width modulator outputs and eight 32-bit counter/timer inputs.
