Acces I/O Products, Inc. has introduced Model USB-DA12-8A. The board features eight independent 12-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) and broadly configurable arbitrary waveform generation (ARB) capabilities. The module can be used in any PC or embedded system with a USB port. Features include single-ended and differential outputs for increased noise immunity, ARB status and control signals via external connections, and two DB25 industry-standard connectors. The unit is fully compatible with USB 2.0 ports and hot-plug functionality allows for quick connect/disconnect. The USB-DA12-8A can be used in an assortment of USB-based embedded applications including stimulus-response, test, simulation, industrial equipment control and waveform/audio synthesis. Virtually any waveform can be created using the software tools provided by Acces and also by third-party software packages. www.accesio.com Acces I/O Products, Inc.
