UICK START

 

It is recommended that you install the software package before 
installing the PCI Express Mini Card (mPCIe) in your computer.  You 
can install the software

1

 using either a stand-alone installer 

downloaded from the website or an optional Software Master CD. 

Run the installer you downloaded (or autorun.exe on the Software 
Master CD) and follow the prompts to install the software for your 
device.   

Please note: during the installation you may be prompted regarding 
the installation of non-WHQL-certified drivers; please carefully 
confirm the digitally signed source of the drivers and accept the 
installation.   

Once the software has been installed, shut down your system and 
carefully install the mPCIe card. 

Re-start your system.  Once the computer finishes booting, your 
new digital I/O should already be installed and ready for use; you 
can confirm this by launching Device Manager and looking under 

the “Data Acquisition” section.  If, for any reason, the device 

displays a warning triangle, right-

click and select “Update Driver”.

NTRODUCTION

 

PCI Express Mini Card (mPCIe), a low-profile small-footprint bus 
standard originally intended for adding peripherals to notebook 
computers, has become the de-facto standard for high-
performance, small form-factor devices in many applications. 

 

PCI Express Mini Card (mPCIe) type F1, with latching I/O 
connector 

 

16-bit, Bipolar, Differential, A/D converters 

 

Software selectable as 16+0, 8+4, or 0+8 (Single-Ended + 
Differential Inputs) 

 

7 channel-by-channel programmable differential input ranges 
from ±0.64V up to ±24.576V 

 

Sustained sampling rates up to 1MHz (2Msps) 

 

A/D starts via software or periodic hardware timer 

 

Ease of use

16-bit, 2MSPS complete data acquisition system  

 

High impedance, 8-

channel input: 1 MΩ 

 

 

Four 16-bit analog outputs 

 

5 per-channel programmable ranges: 0V to 5V, 0V to 10V, 
±2.5V, ±5V, ±10V 

 

Outputs Drive ±10mA Guaranteed 

 

RoHS compliant standard
