PC Boards

ADDI-DATA develops interference-free PC boards for industrial measurement and automation. These PC boards are designed to acquire and process a large amount of data quickly and accurately in harsh industrial environments. To guarantee accuracy despite the disturbances to which they are subjected, ADDI-DATA cards have numerous safety devices. Thanks to an adapted connector system, the complete acquisition and control chain (sensor-electronics or electronics-actuator) is immunized. Performance and reliability PC boards in industrial environments With the sophisticated and reliable ADDI-DATA PC boards, your measurement and automation tasks will be a success! High quality products, well thought-out design concepts and robust constitution guarantee a reliable function of ADDI-DATA PC boards in a harsh industrial environment. Unique applications due to FPGA technology A FPGA component has a programmable logic on which you can save your own algorithms in order to adapt the functionality of the PC board to your requirements. This adaptation makes your PC board unique and improves the performance of your applications. The onboard algorithms reduce the cycle time of signal acquisition and of regulation tasks. Many ADDI-DATA boards come with a FPGA component. Use the full potential of your PC board hardware and software resources and thus accelerate your processes. Bespoke solutions Benefit from our know-how and our experience and improve the efficiency of your application with our customised solutions. We will be glad to help you – from a small adaptation of a standard product to the complete development of a new product. Examples - Adaptation of the signal type, for example 12 V instead of 24 V - Firmware adaptation - Drivers for specific operating systems A well-considered investment Before investing, make sure that the equipment is well adapted to your requirements. To do so, ADDI-DATA's specialists are ready to come and meet with you in order to select the ideal solution for your measurement or control project. ADDI-DATA is also committed to making the products you plan to use available to you to use for a test period. MORE PERFORMANCE WITH ADDI-DATA PC BOARDS - Simplified application design - Faster processes through FPGA technology - High-precision measurement results - Individual customisation - Safe investments through long-term availability ADDI-DATA offers a wide range of solutions for PCI-Express, PCI, CompactPCI Serial and CompactPCIbus: - Digital I/O - Analog I/O or multifunction boards - Serial interfaces - Multifunction counter boards - Motion control boards For a safe and reliable use in your application, ADDI-DATA PC boards are protected by numerous protective circuits like optical isolation, filters, protection against short-circuits etc. Fast and easy application design ADDI-DATA PC boards are supplied with an extensive software package for a fast and convenient integration into your application: the clever driver concept ADDIPACK, a wide range of drivers and samples and a configuration tool assist you from the beginning. ADDIPACK: Easy board handling - now available as 64-bit version! For an easy administration of the boards installed in the PC ADDI-DATA has developed a convenient driver system that lists the functionalities of all boards inside your PC on a virtual board. This means that you do not administrate PC boards but functionalities, in principle like a resource. Thus you can easily exchange or add new boards. Changes in the functionalities due to exchanges are immediately visible. An installation of new drivers, for example in case of replacement of PCI boards by PCI-Express boards, is not necessary. The ADDIPACK concept The ADDIPACK software is organised in two parts: - ADDIDRIVER (ADDIDATA.DLL): The library contains all API functions for the control of ADDI-DATA boards. - Virtual Board Manager: With this program, you can administrate the functionalities of the virtual board. The program helps you by showing a clear visualisation of the virtual board. These two parts are the interface between ADDI-DATA boards and your application. Supported functionalities - Digital inputs and outputs - Analog inputs and outputs - Temperature measurement - Pressure measurement - Resistance measurement - Inductive sensors - Timer/ watchdog/ counter - Numerous drivers and samples - Drivers for real-time applications - Linux drivers - Practical simulation - Fast integration in LabVIEW - Individual driver adaptations
