High-precision Analog input board
(Low Profile size) for PCI Express
AI-1616L-LPE
*Specifications, colors and design of the products are subject
to change without notice.
Features
Multi-function
High-precision analog I/O can be implemented in a compact
system. This product contains the analog input (16bit, 16ch).
This product include digital inputs and outputs (4 each, LVTTL
level) and a counter (32-bit 1ch).
Analog I/O can be synchronized with an internal timer or
external clock
Analog I/O can both be performed at fixed time intervals or
synchronized with an external signal.
Buffer memory available for background processing
independent of software
The boards include buffer memory (1K Word each for analog
input and output) which can be used in either FIFO or ring
format. This allows analog I/O to be performed independently
of the operating state of the PC or software.
Software-based calibration function
Calibration of analog input/output can be all performed by
software. Apart from the adjustment information prepared
before shipment, additional adjustment information can be
stored according to the use environment.
Filter function for easy connection of external signals
The digital input signals, counter input signals, and the
external control signals for analog I/O incorporate a digital filter
to prevent problems such as chattering.
Support for both of Low Profile and standard size slots
Support for both of Low Profile and standard size slots
(interchangeable with a bundled bracket).

This product is a multi-function, PCI Express bus-compliant
interface board that incorporates high-precision 16-bit analog
inputs, digital inputs/ outputs (LVTTL level each 4ch), and a
counter (32-bit, 1ch) function.
This product supports a Low Profile size slot and, if replaced
with the supplied bracket, supports a standard size slot, too.
You can use the driver library (API-PAC(W32)) supplied with the
board to write Windows application programs in any
programming language (such as Visual Basic, Visual C++, etc.)
that supports the calling of Win32 API functions.
It can also collect data easily without a program when the data
logger software [C-LOGGER] stored on the bundled disk is
used.
With plug-ins for the dedicated libraries, the board also supports
MATLAB and LabVIEW.
Supported to the data logger software [C-LOGGER]
(Analog input only)
Supporting the data logger software [C-LOGGER] that enables
the graph display of recorded signal data, file saving, and
dynamic transfer to the spreadsheet software program "Excel".
Plug-ins for the dedicated libraries, the board also
supports MATLAB and LabVIEW.
We offer a dedicated library [ML-DAQ], which allows you to
use this product on MATLAB by The MathWorks as well as
another dedicated library [VI-DAQ], which allows you to use
the product on LabVIEW.
These dedicated libraries are available, free of charge
(downloadable), on our web site.
