    EMANT300
    FEATURES

    Low Cost USB Data Acquisition Module

    Low cost and portable data acquisition system up to 6 channels of differential multiplexed ADC single channel 22 bit @ 10 samples/sec single channel 16 bit waveform @ 2500 samples/sec (max) Programmable Gain 1-128 1 channel of 8-bit D/A conversion (current output) 8 digital IO channels One 16-bit general-purpose counter OR 16-bit PWM USB 2.0 Full Speed connectivity to desktop PC, notebook Low cost and easily available 25 pin D-Sub connects to the physical world. Application adaptors with instructional guides for fuss free learning.

    APPLICATIONS The EMANT300 is a low-cost and compact data acquisition system developed for learning purposes. It can be used readily with a desktop personal computer for data acquisition and control. When connected to a notebook, portability and/or isolation is achieved. Together with the communication capabilities inherent in the computer, it allows learners to experiment and design solutions that capture, compute, control and connect to the world. The high resolution ADC, Differential Inputs & Programmable Gain Amplifier simplifies sensor connection. Learners can connect thermocouples and strain gauges directly to read temperature and strain without needing expensive and sophisticated signal conditioning. The current output DAC allows users to measure resistance directly. Thus, resistive sensors like thermistors can be connected directly to measure temperature. The counter can be used to measure flow rate or RPM. When the counter is not used, its clock can be used for PWM output for heating or motor control experiments. USB allows for quick and fuss free connection. 3 icons (LabVIEW) or 6 lines of code (C# on .NET) later, the learner has created a voltage meter.

    SOFTWARE SUPPORT AVAILABLE LabVIEW driver (ver7.0 or later)

    .NET driver for use with C#, VB and C++ (.NET Framework 1.1 or later)
    double volt; EMANT300 DAQ = new EMANT300(); DAQ.Open(); volt = DAQ.ReadAnalog(AIN0, AINCOM); Console.WriteLine(volt); DAQ.Close();

    Using the internet connectivity, the same voltage can now be read across the world using email, browser or messenger. Attaching a mobile phone with PC connectivity (or GSM modem) to the PC , this voltage reading is now available on a mobile phone. Simple examples are provided with instructional guide to allow the learner to explore and build on the knowledge.
