Pittsford, NY, USA: Saelig Company, Inc. has introduced Check-MATE - an economical general purpose data acquisition board that offers 8 single-ended 12-bit A/D inputs sampling at 110KHz , one 12-bit analog output, and 8 digital I/O lines. Check-MATE provides a USB or SPI-bus interface for external control by a microprocessor or a PC , and can even be powered from the USB port, eliminating the need for additional power supplies. GUI control software is also provided, making the board instantly usable. Check-MATE’s analog inputs can be single-ended or differential, and the single analog output can be unipolar or bipolar.
Check-MATE can be controlled with a Host PC or embedded microcontroller. Free-download Virtual Instrument Panel control software removes the complexities of manually typing ASCII commands and provides an efficient means of interacting with and controlling the Check-MATE board out-of-the-box. Using a USB interface, Check-MATE responds to a simple set of ASCII commands. Programming is easy using Visual BASIC, LINUX, C/C++, Lab- View, LabWindows or any language that allows access to through a serial port. For embedded applications, Check-MATE can also be driven via an SPI interface.
Each analog channel can be programmed for 0-5V, ±5, 0-10V or ±10V input levels. The single analog output channel can be programmed for either unipolar (0-10V), or bipolar (±10V) operation. The 8 digital input/output lines are also all independently programmable.
