SC-2070 Board
This chapter describes the SC-2070 board in detail, including function, compatibility, connection,
mounting, and applications. This chapter also discusses working with thermocouples.
The SC-2070 is a general-purpose termination breadboard that makes it easy to connect to all MIO-16
board I/O signals; add analog input signal conditioning, such as filters, dividers, and thermocouple
compensation; and build external, custom timing, analog, and digital circuits.
The SC-2070 board is used with National Instruments DAQ boards for the Macintosh (NB Series),
IBM PS/2 Micro Channel (MC Series), and PC/XT/AT and compatible (AT Series) computers.
The SC-2070 board has screw terminals for all DAQ board signals. With these terminals, the board
easily connects to the analog, digital, timing, and trigger signals. The SC-2070 has an onboard
temperature sensor that can be optionally jumpered to differential channel 0 for thermocouple cold-
junction compensation. With open component positions in the input paths, you can insert resistors and
capacitors for conditioning the 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog input signals. A 1.5 by 4 in.
general-purpose breadboard area is also included. The SC-207X Series boards can also be used in
conjunction with the other signal conditioning accessories, including the SC-206X Series boards and
SSR Series boards. To connect multiple signal conditioning accessories, you must use an SC-205X
Series cable adapter board.
