SANDUS (SANdia Digital Underground System): MA164 digital data acquisition system specifications

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/7107583· OSTI ID:7107583

The SANDUS will accept data from up to 128 unique analog channels and up to 88 eight bit digital channels. This system is capable of simultaneously conditioning, amplifying, digitizing, and internally storing the data from all channels. The channels record analog signals with amplitudes in the range of 1 mV to 10 V at frequencies from dc to 100 KHz, with accuracy to 99.976%, and/or signals with amplitudes in the range of 8 mV to 4 V at frequencies from dc to 10 MHz, with accuracy to 99.61%. The digitized data is continually output to a remote location for processing. The entire system may be controlled locally, remotely, or automatically in adverse electrical and environmental locations. Appendix 2 has been included to facilitate the withdrawal of any system drawing from the Sandia Film Bank. 16 figs.
