Axon Digidata 1550A Low-Noise Digitizer plus HumSilencer

The Molecular Devices Axon Digidata® 1550A Digitizer is a low-noise high-resolution 16-bit data acquisition system for electrophysiology recordings. It is self-contained and communicates with the host computer via a USB 2.0 interface for extremely easy installation and setup. Designed for fast results, the Digidata 1550A Digitizer comes with AxoScope software for Microsoft Windows OS and is ready to acquire data immediately after installation. Absolutely no programming is necessary.

The Digidata 1550A Digitizer features a maximum sampling rate of 500 kHz per channel, with an outstanding total data throughput rate of 4 mega-samples per second. This enables you to capture even the fastest signals in the biorelevant frequency range. Independent analog-to-digital converters for each input channel ensure low crosstalk levels and high data acquisition rates. Both the inherent digitizer noise and channel crosstalk noise are rated at less than ±1 mV average p-p at 10 kHz, within a ±10 V input range, making the Digidata 1550A System one of the quietest digitizers on the market. 

For intuitive set-up, the front panel is clearly laid out with eight analog input channels and eight analog output channels, eight general digital outputs, one dedicated digital output to trigger devices such as oscilloscopes, as well as trigger inputs to start acquisition and to tag data. The back panel has four additional analog instrument telegraph inputs, as well as a DB-25 connector for the digital outputs. With its USB 2.0 interface, you can easily connect the Digidata 1550A Digitizer to a laptop computer without the need for a with peripheral PC card. 

Designed to support continuous data acquisition within a multitasking operating system, the Digidata 1550A Digitizer is fully compatible with the free AxoScope 11 Software for Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit) and the optional pCLAMP Software for Windows.
