The universal durability card (DB8) supports it all: signal conditioning, A/D conversion and signal processing. Signal conditioning for every single channel is software selectable between strain gauges in full, half and quarter bridge configurations, as well as load cells, pressure transducers, potentiometers, bridge-type capacitive, piezo-resistive or MEMS-based accelerometers and, if needed, standard voltage input. Offering the unique combination of strain-based, vibration and displacement measurements in one single module, the DB8 is the most versatile solution for durability-type measurement campaigns. Moreover, the card has only one pin assignment for all sensors, which means a cable error is practically impossible.
