The test lab I work in is looking at moving our analog data
acquisition system from minicomputers (CCC ne Interdata) to micros.
We have been looking at D/A systems for the PC/AT bus ('386 box) and
for the Mac II.
I would definitely prefer to do the programming on the Mac, but we
have not been able to find much in the way of D/A cards for the Mac II
NuBus yet. Our requirements are for 6 16-bit channels, with a max
speed of 100Khz per channel. We will not be acquiring all channels at
this speed, but one or two at a time will be required at ~90K. Also,
we need some sort of tape interface for storing the acquired data on.
We already have several good-quality 9-track drives, does anyone make
an interface board for these for the NuBus?
Any information this newsgroup can provide will be greatly
appreciated. Reply via mail and I will summarize in another posting.
