Custom Solutions
The SB-3620XIX is a PCI bus card that contains four channels of fully independent synchro/resolver-to-digital conversion and up to two channels of digital-to-synchro/resolver conversion. The SB-3620XIX card has an optional power oscillator to support 26 Vrms from 360 to 7kHz (See ordering information).
The resolution (10, 12, 14 or 16 bit) and bandwidth (100 Hz/300 Hz) are software programmable. Each channel has an independent signal and reference input. The standard inputs are solid state. The signal connections are provided through a 68-pin mini D-type connector (P1).
The SB-3620XIX PCI card has up to two channels of fully independent digital-to-synchro or digital-to-resolver conversion. For each channel the conversion process is implemented using PDC D/S or D/R converters DSC-11520, DSC-11524 or DR-11525 (See hybrid data sheets for output characteristics).
