DNA-STP-AI-
208 Screw
Terminal
Panel
The DNA-STP-AI-208 Screw Terminal Panel is an easy-to-use, versatile, acces-
sory for direct connection of strain gauge and other bridge-type sensors to the
DNA-AI-208 Strain Gauge Analog Input Layer board. It can accept signals from
8 strain gauge-type sensor channels in several types of bridge configurations —
full-bridge (4- and 6-wire circuits), half-bridge (3- and 4-wire circuits), and quar-
ter-bridge (2- and 3-wire circuits) configurations. Note that quarter- and half-
bridge configurations require user-populated bridge completion resistors.
Since the panel is supplied with a DB-37 board-mounted connector that mates
directly with the I/O connector on a DNA-AI-208 Layer board, it can be plugged
directly into the Layer in the Cube. As an alternative, you can use a
DNA-CBL-37 37-way Flat Ribbon Cable or a DNA-CBL-37S 37-way Round
Cable to mount the unit as a desktop panel.
