The ADwin-X-A20 compact data acquisition and control system features a high performance, dual-core, 64-bit processor plus analog and digital inputs and outputs and a 1-GB Ethernet communications interface to provide precise, low latency real-time operation. Programs can be created using either the ADbasic development environment or through Simulink via the ADsim interface. It is designed for applications such as high-speed and closed-loop control, signal generation, test stand data acquisition, hardware in the loop (HIL) simulation and testing and portable data collection and includes a rugged metal case with option for DIN rail mounting.
