New SwiftADC adds to SwiftModule interfaces

Analog-to-digital converter now available

Our latest addition to the SwiftModule connectivity library is a capable, flexible analog-to-digital converter design.

SwiftADC adds analog input capability so that the system can measure voltages from different sensor devices, such as temperature, pressure, ambient light. The SwiftADC design is based on an Analog Devices AD7689 8-channel and 16-bit precision ADC chip which is connected to the Windows CE system via SPI protocol. The SwiftModule host SPI controller can run at up to 13Mbps which means that high sample rates can be supported, up to 250K samples per second.

The new product ships with an extension board which plugs into the SwiftKit development system, full Windows CE 6.0 R2 drivers for SPI and for the A to D converter, and a demo application.The SW part of ADC development kit includes SPI driver, AD7689 driver and demo application.

SwiftADC is available immediately, worldwide, from Direct Insight.
