76CS3
PCI D/S, S/D, Multifunction I/O Board
EOL - NRND (NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGNS)
NAI's 76CS3 is a full-size PCI multifunction control board specifically designed for applications that require higher output drive synchro/resolver simulation (D/S) and measurement (S/D), as well as digital-to-LVDT/RVDT simulation (D/LVDT) and measurement (LVDT/D). In addition, it can support NAI's complete range of I/O and communication function modules. This motherboard is equipped with five independent function module slots that can be configured to accommodate six separate D/S or D/LVDT channels. Alternatively, these slots can be used for D/S or D/LVDT in combination with I/O and communication modules. The enhanced motherboard features multiple digital signal processors (DSPs) that provide higher bandwidth and dedicated pre-processing control for each module.
