Axcpci 3901

High Speed Counter Compact PCI Board

Axcpci 3901 is a high-speed counter board equipped with a 4-channel 32-bit counter. Pulse input up to 200 MHz can be measured, input signal level can be set for each channel by register setting TTL or NIM. You can set two operation modes: a counter mode to measure the number of pulses within a fixed time and a timer mode to measure the time to the set number of pulses.
