Only products to
receive Test and Measurement World's "Product of the Decade"
The LabMaster DMA is the Longest selling and supported PC-based data acquisition product in the world!
First introduced in 1981, the LabMaster DMA products created the PC data acquisition market and were the world's first add in products of any type for the IBM PC.
Awarded Test Product of the Decade in 1991 by Test & Measurement world as recognition of its pioneering status in the industry. With updates and enhancements throughout the years, todays version of the LabMaster products provide current technology while maintaining 100% compatibility with the original.
LabMaster DMA products use an External ADC for Ultra Quiet Measurements!
The multi functional LabMaster DMA products are implemented in a unique two piece design that results in exceptional ultra-low noise measurements.
The product implements the following functions:
- Analog-to-Digital Conversion
- Digital-to-Analog Conversion
- Digital Input, Output and Bi-directional control
- Precision Counter / Timer functions with independent Source, Gate and Output capabilities
Used in such diverse applications such as Voltage Clamp (pCLamp); EEG/EKG Neurological measurements; Industrial Process Control; Laboratory Instrumentation Test, Measurement and Control; Gravitational Meters; and Fluorescence Research Instrumentation; - the LabMaster DMA products are available in several models of A/D Resolution, A/D Speed, Amplifier Gain, Digital I/O buffering methods, and external connection options.
- ADC Resolution Options
- 12 bit
- 16 bit
- ADC Sampling Rate Options
- 50Khz
- 160Khz
- ADC Gain Options
- Hardware Gain (HGE)
- Software Programmable Gain PGH with gains of 1, 2, 4, 8
- Software Programmable Gain PGL with gains of 1, 10, 100
- PGL Gain 500 now only available on special orders
- Digital I/O Buffering Options
- Inverting
- Non-Inverting
- Several External DeskTop Enclosure Options Available
The LabMaster DMA products consist of two boards:
- The LabMaster PC Interface which installs in the computer
- The LabMaster External Analog-to-Digital board which is outside of the computer
These two boards are connected with a cable. Some configurations use a flat ribbon cable that is fed thru the bracket on the LabMaster PC Interface, while other configurations use a quick-connect round cable that is much easier to install. The External Analog-to-Digital board can be housed in a number of different enclosures, and is even offered without an enclosure for special OEM configurations.
The products on this page are organized in according to the type external enclosure used:
- No external Enclosure
- DeskTop Enclosure with ribbon cable connections
- DeskTop Enclosure with Screw Terminals
- DeskTop Enclosure with MiniJack Connections
- DeskTop Enclosure with BNC Connections
Customers using the LabMaster DMA / ISA products may also be interested in the LabMaster DPCI offerings. The LabMaster DPCI is a PCI version of the LabMaster DMA. In most cases, software written for the LabMaster DMA / ISA card can be run on the LabMaster DPCI product without any modification required.
