ifications when shielded cables are used for external wiring.
We recommend the use of shielded cables. This kind of
cable is available from Advantech. Please contact your local
supplier for ordering information.
The PCI-1712/1712L is a powerful high-speed mul-
tifunction DAS card for PCI bus. It features a 1MHz
12-bit A/D converter, an on-board FIFO buffer
(storing up to 1K samples for A/D, and up to 32K
samples for D/A conversion). The PCI-1712/1712L
provides a total of up to 16 single-ended or 8 differ-
ential A/D input channels or a mixed combination, 2
12-bit D/A output channels, 16 digital input/output
channels, and 3 10MHz 16-bit multifunction counter
channels.PCI-1712/1712L provides specific func-
tions for different user requirments.
