ADwin-Gold Real-Time Data Acquisition System The ADwin-Gold Real-Time Data Acquisition System is a powerful real-time data acquisition system in a very compact and robust design. It includes many functions in a small package at a reasonable price. The ADwin-Gold is housed in a rugged, metal enclosure that includes a fast, local Real-Time CPU and memory, analog and digital inputs and outputs; as well as a USB or Ethernet interface for the communication with a PC. The local CPU enables input and output response times of 1 μs or less. Analog Inputs The analog inputs are connected via two 8-channel MUX and two PGA to 2×16-bit and 2×14-bit ADCs. Signal acquisition is controlled by the ADwin’s CPU, and possible to acquire two channels simultaneously without any phase-shift, critical for correlated signals. The ADwin-Gold has 2- or 8-analog outputs with an output range is ±10V. Digital Inputs The ADwin-Gold provides 32 programmable digital input and output channels at 5V-TTL/CMOS level, plus an Event input. The channels can be software selected in blocks of 8 as inputs or outputs. Optional configurations allow additional features such as counters, quadrature encoder interfaces, RS-232/485, automotive CANbus and SSI interfaces.
