USB Data Acquisition

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes the USB-ME-Systems, a plug-and-play data acquisition system designed for high mobility and flexibility. It supports 64, 128, or 256 channels and offers real-time signal detection and feedback through USB 2.0 data transfer. The system includes DAQ software for both online and offline analysis.
Specifications: The system can handle data acquisition from 64, 128, or 256 channels, control and synchronize other devices with TTL pulses, and perform online and offline analysis. It features a sampling frequency of up to 50 kHz per channel, a maximum data rate of 20.5 MB/s, and a data resolution of 16-bit. The input voltage range is ±4 V with an input impedance of 10 kOhm and a bandwidth from DC to 13 kHz.
Connectivity: The rear panel includes connectors for digital IN/OUT, D0 Out and D0 In, audio output, analog inputs, and USB 2.0 for data transfer. The front panel supports digital inputs and analog inputs through Lemo and 68-Pin MCS standard connectors.
Software Features: The MC_Rack software provides a virtual instrument rack for data acquisition and analysis, allowing for online filtering, spike sorting, and local field potential extraction. It supports exporting data in various formats, including Axon binary, ASCII, and raw binary files. The software is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, and 7.
Real-time Signal Detection: The system uses a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for real-time signal detection and feedback, enabling fast and predictable reactions to recorded analog signals.
Additional Tools: The document mentions NeuroExplorer for statistical analysis of spike trains and other event data, offering features like histogram, raster, and correlational analyses.
Contact Information: Multi Channel Systems MCS GmbH, located in Reutlingen, Germany, provides contact details for further inquiries.

Real-time signal detection and feedback By moving the analysis from the PC to the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) integrated in the USB-ME-System hardware, a real-time signal detection/feedback is possible. The real-time signal detection/feedback is an advantageous feature if you need fast and predictable reactions related to recorded analog signals without time delay. multichannel^ systems Innovations in Electrophysiology The schematic view shows the principle of operation: The DSP detects spikes/signals in the filtered data from each channel. You can define the criteria and time frame for the...
