PCI DAQ Card is designed for load cell measurements.
Press Release Summary:
Offering high 24-bit resolution with 1/200,000 count accuracy, PCI-9524 is designed as single-board solution for material testing system (MTS) applications. It integrates 24-bit load cell measurement, 4 channels of general-purpose analog input, 2 channels of general-purpose analog output, 3 channels of pulse-wave modulation output, 16-bit isolated digital I/O, and one 3-axis encoder. Auto-zeroing feature helps reduce semiconductor noise, thermal noise, and thermal coupling.

ADLINK Launches 24-Bit PCI DAQ for Load Cell Measurements
The PCI-9524 offers a high 24-bit resolution with 1/200,000 count accuracy
June 2, 2008, Taipei
ADLINK Technology, Inc. (TAIEX:6166), a global provider of trusted test and measurement products, today announced the PCI-9524, its first 24-bit high resolution PCI DAQ card for load cell measurements. Designed specifically as a single-board solution for material testing system (MTS) applications, the PCI-9524 integrates 24-bit load cell measurement, four channels of general-purpose analog input, two channels of general-purpose analog output, three channels of pulse-wave modulation output, 16-bit isolated digital I/O, and a three-axis encoder.
The PCI-9524 combines a high 24-bit resolution with 1/200,000 count accuracy to provide the most precise load cell measurement PCI board available in the market today.
"The high precision of the PCI-9524 is achieved through the use of a remote sensor circuit to monitor the excitation voltage of the load cell sensor," explained James Gau, vice president of the measurement and automation product segment at ADLINK. "When the resistance of the leads causes a drop in excitation voltage, this circuit will provide automatic voltage compensation."
Other technologies implemented in the PCI-9524 include an auto-zeroing feature to reduce semiconductor noise, thermal noise, and thermal coupling. Analog and digital filters further reduce RFI and other electrical noise that may occur.
