Fig. 2 Voltage output 1 V and Sync Out.
Screen shot from a standard oscilloscope triggered on the Sync Out pulse (see "Measuring output
signals with an oscilloscope"). Cyan trace = voltage output (+U), yellow trace = inverted voltage
output (U), green trace = TTL output from the Sync Out.
Setup suggestions for voltage mode
The following illustrations show circuit diagrams of suggested setups. Please note that you can use
unshielded twisted pair cables (wires twisted round each other) instead of a shielding to
prevent the amplifier from picking up noise. The experimental ground can be, for example, the
amplifier's ground or a Faraday cage.
If you use the stimulus generator together with a standard MEA amplifier, you can also use the
provided 3-polar cable for directly connecting the stimulus generator to the electrode inputs of
the MEA amplifier. Please note that a shielded cable is generally not necessary if you use a
MEA1060 amplifier with blanking circuit. For more details on the recommended setup for this
amplifier type, please refer to the MEA1060 Amplifier with Blanking Circuit User Manual.
