Isolated Digital Expansion Board
MSXB 078
The Microstar Laboratories Isolated Digital Expansion Board, part number MSXB 078, provides isolated digital expansion for Data Acquisition Processor (DAP) systems. Use these boards to eliminate ground currents – a potential source of noise in your measurement and control signals – and eliminate timing errors from high-channel count digital I/O.

Multiple Digital Expansion Boards
MSXB 038
Multiple Digital Expansion Boards can be connected to a single DAP for a total of 128 digital input lines and 1024 digital output lines. Input expansion is at a maximum with eight MSXB 038 boards (128 points). Output can be expanded to 1024 points by connecting 64 MSXB 038 boards to a single DAP.

Counter/Timer Board
MSXB 036
The MSXB 036 Counter/Timer Board is used for frequency counting, rotational speed (tachometer) measurement, and closed loop process control based on frequency criteria. Engine performance monitoring is a typical application. The Counter/Timer Board provides 16 digital input lines and 16 digital output lines, counts up to 6 MHz on 10 channels, and has two 100 MHz frequency prescalers.

Signal Conditioning and Filtering
MSXB 067
The MSXB 067 Signal Conditioning Expansion Board provides analog signal conditioning for strain gauges, load cells, RTDs, and other resistive sensors. MSXB 067 provides a flexible interface for quarter-bridge, half-bridge, and full-bridge sensors, with two to six wires for each sensor, with or without voltage sense feedback. A small daughterboard supports user-supplied bridge completion resistors.

Network-Ready Data Acquisition System
DAPserver 500
The DAPserver 500 and DAPserver 502 – and the DAPserver 500R and 502R, the latter "R" models for rugged environments – serve as fully integrated test, measurement, and control products. Built with experience gained over many years of integrating third-party hardware, these high-performance combined systems are now available as standard products,

Termination Board
MSTB 010
Termination Board allows quick and secure connection of discrete wires to a DAP 820 or DAP 840. MSTB 010 combines analog and digital termination on the same board, and is the only termination board that can be used by the boards listed at the end of this page.

Filtered Analog Input Expansion Board
MSXB 048
The MSXB 048 Filtered Analog Input Expansion Board has a four-pole low-pass Butterworth filter on each of its 16 single-ended channels. For DAP applications that require analog filters to take out all above-Nyquist frequencies before signal conversion, it simply replaces the MSXB 037 Analog Input Expansion board. Signal inputs normally connect to the MSXB 048 through a panel-mount DB-37 connector.

Sampling Boards
MSXB 028
Simultaneous Sampling Boards are used in multichannel spectral analysis and other applications that require simultaneous acquisition of several channels. The MSXB 028 usually is used for applications that require interchannel phase measurements such as applications that perform transfer function computations. This board eliminates phase error introduced by sequential sampling.
