DESCRIPTION:
The ACE100 is a complete, easy to use system for evaluation of Thalers ADC100 series of Analog to Digital Converters.
   ADC100
   ADC150
   ADC180

By eliminating bread-boards and prototypes, evaluation and design-in cycle times are reduced. Connections to the evaluation board include a DB9 serial cable, power supply inputs (+5, +15, -15, GND), and analog inputs to the ADC (IN HIGH / IN LOW).
The evaluation board has 2 high precision Thaler ± 5 V and ± 10 V references that can be used as inputs to the ADC or the user can supply their own DC source.
The evaluation board also has on-board RAM for storing up to 8k ADC readings which can then be transferred to the PC and displayed on the screen or stored in a file.

The ACE100 Evaluation Kit includes the following items:
1) ACE100 Evaluation Board.
2) DB9 serial cable.
3) CD-ROM containing the ACExxx_Eval program, the MCCOMM32 file for the serial communication port, and this datasheet.

The power supply inputs require banana plugs to mate with the jacks on the evaluation board.
The evaluation software is provided on a CDROM.
The software is menu driven and provides the user with a complete selection of options for evaluating the A/D converter. Data collection to a text file is a software selectable option for individuals who prefer to use external software packages for data analysis.
