Features:
- 800 kSamples (14-Bit Resolution)
- Continuous and Transient Voltages up to 256 V
- 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, and 128 MB PC SIMM Memory
- All Channels Sample Simultaneously
The Ametek VT1563A (2-channel) and VT1564A (4-channel) Digitizers are 800 kSamples/s (14-bit resolution) digitizers capable of handling both continuous and transient voltages up to 256 V. You cannot upgrade a VT1563A 2-Channel Digitizer to a VT1564A 4-Channel Digitizer.
Both the VT1563A and VT1564A digitizers are register-based instruments that can be programmed at the register level (see Appendix C) or at a higher level using SCPI or VXI plug and play drivers.
The digitizers are ideal for measurements in electomechanical design characterization, particularly in environments with high levels of electrical noise and for characterizing electronic and mechanical transient waveforms.
The VT1563A 2-Channel Digitizer has a fixed 25 kHz input filter per channel that can be enabled. The VT1564A 4-Channel Digitizer has four selectable input filters per channel (1.5 kHz, 6 kHz, 25 kHz and 100 kHz) that can be enabled.
The VT1564A 4-Channel Digitizer has a calibration bus output (High, Low and Guard) and a programmable short. The VT1563A 2-Channel Digitizer does not have a calibration bus output. However, a programmable short is provided for each channel. An external calibration source must be provided for calibration.
Both digitizers use PC SIMM memory. Memory sizes that are supported are 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 and 128 Mbytes. The large memory can easily capture transients or act as FIFO to allow continuous digitizing while unloading data with block mode transfers.
The VT1563A Ametek 2-Channel Digitizer may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
