SENSOR CARD SPECIFICATIONS
MODEL 6010A STRAIN GAGE CARD
• Supports software identification and setup of each type of
plug-in card
• Complete strain gage signal conditioner with 16-bit
analog-to-digital converter
• Programmable digital filter
• Programmable excitation supply per channel. The supply
is settable to 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, and 10V. Up to 50mA of
excitation current is available on each channel. Remote
sense is provided for full-bridge transducers.
• Programmable gain to complement the excitation steps of
1, 2, 5, and 10V. Full-scale input range will be ±16 383με.
An excitation setting of 0.5V will use the 1V gain range, but
with one-half the resolution. Gain settings are independent
per channel.
• Internal bridge completion resistors: 120Ω, 350Ω, and
1000Ω dummy resistors (jumper selectable); 1000 internal
half bridge
• Programmable coarse balance range of ±16 300με
(4096με steps)
• Fixed low-pass anti-aliasing filter (six-pole)
• Two programmable shunt calibration circuits
• Input connections to user's strain gage via nine-pin D-sub
connector
