ABOUT 3196
The 3196 is a single-width CAMAC module that functions as a programmable digital attenuator for 16 dif- ferentially-received analog inputs. Each channel contains a four-quadrant, multiplying digital-to-analog converter that provides 16-bit (one part in 65,536) resolution in gain from -1 to +1. In addition, a channel- by-channel programmable pre-gain of 100 may be selected.

The data for channels 1 through 16 are written as 16-bit 2's complement words using function codes F(16)·A(0) through F(16)·A(15), respectively. On power-up or in response to an Initialize command, the MDACs are cleared to provide a nominal gain of zero. Two 36-contact AMP front-panel connectors are provided, one for the input signals and one for the output signals.

For maximum noise immunity, twisted pair cables should be used for both inputs and outputs. Individual shields or common shields for each connector are acceptable.

Features
  • 16 channels of 16-bit multiplying digital-to-analog converters

  • Channel-by-channel programmable pre-gain (1 or 100)
  • Independent differential inputs for each channel
  • Input and output full-scale range of ±10 V
Applications
  • Magnetic modeling
  • Applications requiring precision computer control of signal attenuation
