Carrier card provides eight channels of filtering

The Kemo CardMaster 8 is a eight-channel filter carrier card that is designed to fit in a PC card slot, suitable for use in filtering and amplification of data acquisition systems

The new unit is ideally suited to local filtering and amplification in conditioning-monitoring or data-acquisition systems, where it can act as a configurable front end.

It can also be used in OEM applications as a noise filter within equipment.

Each channel is configurable with single-ended or differential input, AC/DC coupling, pre-filter input gain up to +60dB, and selectable ICP current for accelerometer applications.

All parameters can be set individually for each channel.

The CardMaster 8 is designed for use with Kemo's 1200 series of resistor-set filters or the 1600 series of programmable filters.

These modules are available from stock with a wide range of filter responses to meet a range of applications.

With the 1200 Series modules, three selectable frequencies can be set by on-board jumpers.

With the 1600 Series modules, 255 frequencies can be set by on-board switches.

The input will accept AC or DC signals over the range +/-10V.

ICP accelerometer signals from 1 to 10mA at 24V are set by an on-card resistor for each channel.

Input gain from 0 to +60dB is user selectable via resistors on each channel, and DC offset and gain are adjustable by 10-turn potentiometers.
