RB8905 12-bit ADC
[Reference Manual]


Detailed Description

Purpose

Measure a voltage trace.

Description

Module RB8905 is a 1 Mega-sample per second 12-bit analog to digital converter with a 32 kByte on-board data buffer.

The module has a single analog input and a clock input to do a series of data acquisitions. The number of samples to store on-board is programmable.

Module RB8905 contains the following parts:

The ADC can be programmed for bipolar or unipolar use. The input voltage span of the ADC is configured at production time for 10 V or 20 V.

The module's front-panels look as follows.

     +-----------+                +-----------+
     |   ADC12HS |                |   ADC12HS |
     |           |                |           |
     |     clock |                |     clock |
     |      (o)  |                |      (o)  |
     |           |                |           |
     |           |                |           |
     |           |                |     bit07 |
     |           |                |      (o)  |
     |           |                |           |
     |           |                |           |
     |     input |                |     input |
     |      (o)  |                |      (o)  |
     |           |                |           |
     |    RULBUS |                |    RULBUS |
     +-----------+                +-----------+
   

Note that bit07 on the right front-panel provides the signal that indicates the end of a series of data acquisitions, or that indicates that all samples have been read, when reading.
