OPT-830A, OPT-830B

The OPT-830A/830B daughter board series provide differential inputs for the DAQ cards.

Daughter board OPT-830A provides eight differential amplifiers for signals with common mode voltage up to ±250VDC (measured difference signal up to ±10VDC). The overvoltage protection is even ±500VDC. This so high values allow to eliminate the need for use isolating amplifiers in many applications.

The OPT-830B version allows the user to expand the number of measured channels from eight up to 32 (by a parallel connection of up to 4 boards). However, this feature requires two control signals generated by the DAQ card and not all meet this requirement.

The CAB-2511/2 cable (not included) is used for connection the OPT-830A with the DAQ card. If the DAQ card provides the 12V and 5V power supply voltages, the OPT-830A board is powered from the card via CAB-2511/2 cable; if not, external power supply must be used.
The OPT-830B boards also require an interconnection cable CAB-2514X (not included).

OPT-830A/830B board is supplied as an unencapsulated kit, a plastic housing DIN-830 suitable for mounting on the 35 mm DIN rail is supplied optionally.

OPT-830A and OPT-830B diferences

OPT-830A: eight differential amplifiers
OPT-830B: eight differential amplifiers, but extra tri-state output drivers

All other features are identical.
