EX1200-3610 Datasheet
10 Channel Low-Voltage Analog Output Module
Overview
The EX1200-3610 provides 10 independent analog output channels and is ideal for applications such as sensor simulation, that demand a high degree of resolution at lowvoltage levels. Each channel can be configured as a voltage output, or as a thermocouple simulator. In thermocouple simulation mode, the channel can be programmed directly with temperature values, and does not require conversion within the application code.

Each channel has a 16-bit precision DAC and signal conditioning and can be programmed to one of four ranges between +/- 10 mV and +/-10 V range. The 10 mV range allows the module to accurately simulate thermocouples to 0.1 degree C resolution without the need of external signal conditioning that is typically required by other commercially available analog output module. All channels are isolated, which allows multiple channels to be connected in series to extend the effective range beyond +/- 10 V.

As part of the EX1200 series of configurable switching and I/O instruments, additional flexibility in system design can be achieved by combining the EX1200-3610 with other functions. For example, 10 channels of thermocouple simulation can be combined with high-density power switching, and 64 channels of digital I/O to create a robust multifunction instrument in a 1 rack U footprint. Output channels can be routed to the internal EX1200 series DMM and an on-board self-test routine can be executed prior to test to ensure functionality of the module.
