• Product Manual (PDF)

The PAS 9416/AO provides sixteen amplifiers and offset voltage circuits on a 6U format VME card. This amplifier is pin compatible with the PAS 9716/AO 16 channel, 16 bit analog output card. By using the combination of these two cards, a VME based analog output system can be constructed that will supply up to +/- 35 Volts and up to 20 mAmps of output current per channel.

External supplies can be used to power the amplifiers, and a front panel connector is provided for wiring to these supplies. As an option, on board DC to DC converters can be provided to power the amplifiers. The front panel also provides two DB 37 connectors. One terminates the input signals and the other provides the amplified output signals. Both of these connectors have the same pin out as the PAS 9716/AO analog output card.

The offset voltage is applied to all the channels, and can either be provided by an external source or by the on board reference circuit. This circuit provides two adjustable reference voltages and a relay for selecting one of them. The relay can either be controlled by an external signal or by one of the PAS 9716/AO card's digital outputs. Custom versions of this board can be provided with gain and offset voltage tailored to the application.
