Resolution 12 bits
Non-Linearity Error (Note 1) ±1/2LSB
Conversion Speed 6µsec Max.
Power consumption (Note 2) +5VDC, 1100mA Max.
Dimensions (inch) 6.9 x 4.2 (176.4mm x 107mm)
Note 1: When the environment temperature is near 0ºC or 50ºC, the
non-linearity error may become larger. A maximum ±0.1% FSR
non-linearity error is possible.
We suppose you to calibrate the board under the work environment
that will give you a better accuracy.
Note 2: If an external device requires this AD12 -16 (PCI)E board to supply
+5VDC from the CN1 or CN2 connectors, the power consumption of
this board will be bigger than what this specification has defined.

Support Software
Attached support software
API Function Library API-PAC(W32)
It is the library software which offers the command to the
hardware of our company in standard Win32API function (DLL)
form for Windows.
By the various programming languages which are supporting
Win32API functions, such as Visual Basic, and Visual C/C++,
the high-speed application software which harnessed the spe-
cial feature of the hardware of our company can be created.
Moreover, it can use also for the check of hardware of opera-
tion by the installed diagnostic program.
For details, please refer to Help or the homepage of our com-
pany in appending CD-ROM.
Main correspondences OS Windows XP, 2000, NT, Me, 98,
etc.
Main adaptation languages Visual C/C++, Borland C++, Visual
Basic, etc.
Others The hard disk which has 20MB empty domain for ev-
ery library software is required.
The newest driver and download service (http://www.contec.
co.jp/apipac/) of difference file are also offered.
Optional Support Software
Collection for measurement systems development of ActiveX
components
ACX-PAC(W32)BP
It is convenient measurement systems development tool for
Windows in which collection of examples which can be used
immediately, and collection (collection of software parts) of
components which can program easily only by combining were
mentioned.
Component for control of the input-and-output board (card) of
our company is made the one package. Analog I/O, digital I/O,
control of each interface of GPIB communication and X-Y graph
display, and file preservation are possible.
Collection for measurement systems development of ActiveX
components
ACX-PAC(W32)AP
It is convenient measurement systems development tool for
Windows in which collection of examples which can be used
immediately, and collection (collection of software parts) of
components which can program easily only by combining were
mentioned.
In addition to the function of ACX-PAC(W32)BP, components,
such as display systems, such as various graph, switch, and
lamp, and operation / analysis, serve as a package.
DDE server DDE SERVER(W32)
It is the software which transmits to DDE client by the cycle
which specified the data from the hardware of our company, or
setup. Data collection / analysis system can be easily created
combining DDE client software, such as Excel97, and
Wonderware InTouch, Visual Basic.
MS-DOS correspondence driver SUPPORT-PAC(PC)306
It is a driver dealing with MS-DOS which supports the hard-
ware of our company. Much high-class language is supported
and the function to provide is supplied per command (function).
