ADS12-300 / ADS12-300-LV

The ADS12-300 module provides up to four identical, independent analog input channels. Every channel has a differential ended input, a 4-pole lowpass filter and a 12-bit analog to digital converter with up to 300 kHz sampling rate. Programmable logic takes control of the four channels, e.g. adjust of cutoff frequency of the Butterworth filters, the sampling frequency, interrupt sharing, adjust of the trigger source or synchronous/asynchronous operation mode of the channels.
The ADS12-300 provides also two 12 bit digital-to-analog converters with an output voltage range between -2.5 V and +2.5 V. The module is interfaced to a DSP via the miniBus. Two or more module can work parallel without problems.
