E1418A 8/16-Channel D/A Converter
Description
The Agilent E1418A is an 8 to 16 Channel D/A Converter VXI Module. The E1418 is a C-size, 1-slot, register-based VXI module. This module has 8 or 16 independent, isolated or non-isolated, 16-bit D/As. Each of these channels can be set to voltage or current mode with local or remote sensing on voltage outputs. All the outputs can be updated with register-level programming to permit fast backplane access. Each channel can be updated individually, orupdated by using the internal data buffer, and each of them synchronized so that all of the channels change at the same time. The channel output mode is set with jumpers in the terminal block for each channel or it is set by register programming. Each D/A converter can be calibrated without removal through software commands and the use of the terminal block CALBUS in conjunction with a 5.5-digit multimeter. The on/off terminal block has screw terminals for field wiring.
