4-Channel, Sigma-Delta ADC Function Card
ProDAQ 3430
The ProDAQ 3430 is a 4-channel, sigma-delta ADC function card. Every channel contains front-end conditioning circuitry followed by a sigma-delta ADC. The bit stream from every ADC is then directed to finite impulse response (FIR) decimation filters. Users can activate up to 10 stages of the FIR filters. The filtered data from the selected stages is then stored in the FIFO. The data from the FIFO easily can be moved on-the-fly to the motherboard or to the host.

2-Channel, Fast DAC / Arbitrary Waveform Generator
ProDAQ 3550
The ProDAQ 3550 fast DAC and arbitrary waveform generator function card provides two channels per card, each equipped with a 16-bit fast and precise DAC 2-pole analog filter and 256k x 16 SRAM memory per channel, with several standard output ranges available. The ProDAQ 3550 can be used as a two-channel waveform generator; the memory can be divided into segments to store complex waveforms. Segments not currently used in a waveform can be loaded during running bursts, providing higher data throughput.

Signal Conditioning Carrier
ProDAQ 5720
The ProDAQ 5720 Signal Conditioning Unit provides power and cooling for up to two Signal Conditioning Cards from the ProDAQ 58xx Series. These Signal Conditioning Cards provide conditioning for 8 or 16 channels and can be used directly with Bustec’s high-performance ProDAQ ADC function cards such as the ProDAQ 3416 16-ch. Sigma-Delta ADC Function Card or the ProDAQ 3424 8-ch. Sigma-Delta ADC Function Card.To connect the function cards to the signal conditioning cards SCSI-style cables from the ProDAQ 8010-Bx Series are used. They provide shielded twisted pair connections for signals and control.

Programmable Voltage Reference Plug-In
ProDAQ 3202
The ProDAQ 3202 voltage reference card is used in the ProDAQ 3180 ultra-performance motherboards and LXI function card carriers. The ProDAQ 3202 voltage reference card is plugged directly onto the motherboard or carrier and can distribute the reference voltage to all ProDAQ function cards via two signal lines. This allows the distribution as a differential signal to overcome possible noise pick-up.

16-Channel RTD Signal Conditioning Card
ProDAQ 5821
The ProDAQ 5821 series of Signal Conditioning Cards is designed to interface with a variety of sensors, principally RTDs, Thermistors, Cryogenic Diodes and Voltage type sensors. Each version of the 5821 provides the capability of precise 4-wire measurement. In order to achieve this, a precise 500μA constant current source is provided per channel. The current source can be disabled on a per channel basis and is monitored to ensure that current is flowing. The value of the output current is stored on-board after calibration. In order to achieve the highest accuracy the output current may be automatically calibrated 'on-the-fly' using the ProDAQ 3416 24-bit Sigma-Delta ADC card and an on-board precision resistor.

Ultra-Performance Motherboard Module
ProDAQ 3180
The ProDAQ 3180 ultra-performance motherboard is a register-based VXIbus device supporting single-word transfer and block transfer of 16-bit and 32-bit words. It can be configured for both the A16 and A32 address space. The improved VXIbus interface of the ProDAQ 3180 is compatible to the VXI-1 Rev 4.0 standard and supports the 2eVME and 2eSST protocols, which allow for backplane transfers at data rates of up to 320 MB/s (theoretically). Depending on the slot-0 controller used, the ProDAQ 3180 can sustain data transfers up to 240 MB/s.
