PicoDAS Series Specifications

After years of development EME Corporation has finally
released the PicoDAS. The PicoDAS is the most compact, self contained,
full featured Data Acquisition System (DAS) ever designed and manufactured.
This DAS measures only 3.7 inches (length) by 2.8 inches (width) by
1.5 inches (height) and weighs less than 1 pound for 32 channels.
Additional channels can be added or removed in 16 channel increments
adding or subtracting only 0.4 inches per 16 Channels to the height
dimension. One Unique feature of the new DAS is the ability to distribute
analog channels external to the Digital Control Module (DCM). This
distribution is accomplished using 16 channel analog cards measuring
only 3.7 inches (length)by 2.7 inches (width) by 0.5 inches (height)
and a DCM measuring the same size. Up to 64 channels (4 analog modules)
can be used with one DCM and multiple DCM’s can be daisy chained together
for extremely high channel counts. EME has sacrificed no features
to achieve this small size. The latest technology available has been
utilized in the design of this DAS and is based on the same design
principles of the very successful current line of data acquisition
systems manufactured by EME. The applications for this DAS are limitless.
