Data Translation Announces a Revolution in High Speed Simultaneous USB Measurement

MARLBORO, Mass., – February 16, 2006 – Data Translation announces the DT9832 Series of simultaneous analog input multifunction data acquisition modules for USB 2.0. The DT9832 Series offers 2 or 4 channels of simultaneous, 16-bit analog measurement at ultra high throughput speeds up to 2 MHz per channel.

"This revolutionary series of high performance USB data acquisition modules were developed for customers seeking highly accurate and very fast simultaneous sampling." states Fred Molinari, President and CEO. "This guarantee of uncompromised high band width signal measurement is a first of its kind anywhere."

Each analog channel in the DT9832 Series has its own 16-bit A/D converter that utilizes a common clock and trigger for simultaneous and synchronous sampling of all analog and digital inputs at the exact same instant in time. See the chart below for further details:

Key Features: All subsystems operate synchronously at 48 MHz

2 or 4 simultaneous, 16-bit analog inputs at up to 2.0 MHz per channel
Two 16-bit analog outputs for waveform generation at 500 kHz per channel
16 digital input and 16 digital output lines for external event synchronization
Two 32-bit counter time channels offer flexible clocking and triggering
Three quadrature decoders allow determination of X/Y positioning and rotation

Software
The DT9832 Series ships with the Data Acquisition Omni CD, which includes device drivers for Windows 2000/XP, an evaluation version of DT Measure Foundry™, Data Translation's test and measurement application builder, and several additional ready-to-measure applications. For maximum flexibility the DT9832 Series operates under prominent software applications including interface tools to LabVIEW® and MATLAB® with free downloads of both available on-line at www.datatranslation.com

Pricing and Availability
The DT9832 Series is shipping immediately with prices starting at $1,970.
