DMS-EB2

Multi-Purpose Application Board  

for DMS-20PC/LCD Meters

The DMS-EB2 Application Board was designed for quick and easy application/evalu-

ation of DATEL's subminiature DMS-20PC/LCD Series, 3½ Digit, LED/LCD Display, Digital 
Panel Voltmeters.  The DMS-EB2's versatility, low cost and direct DMS-20PC/LCD plug-in 
compatibility makes interfacing a breeze.  The DMS-EB2 covers many common panel-
meter applications while providing easy signal and power I/O terminations (via a standard 
MOLEX connector) and plug-in versatility when changing from one application to another.

The DMS-EB2 has provisions for such common applications as input dividers for high 

input voltages, gain (span) adjustment, 9/12Vdc battery operation, and decimal point place-
ment.  The board permits direct signal I/O wiring via the interface connector or soldering 
directly to the board. The DMS-EB2 is fully compatible with all four versions of the DMS-
20PC/LCD (±200mV, ±2V, ±20V, ±200V) making it interchangeable from meter to meter 
and application to application.  Solder gaps 
are conveniently placed on the board and 
may be quickly bridged or cut as required.

This low-cost addition to DATEL's 

expanding line of subminiature meters dem-
onstrates our continuing commitment to offer 
the most versatile, easy-to-use panel-meter 
products.
