The AD218 uses a 24-bit Sigma Delta
A-to-D converter to produce very high resolution measurements, typically up to
21 effective bits when sampling at 50 or 60 Sample/sec. The card consumes very little power and so is ideal for portable instrumentation.

Technical Features:
24-bit Sigma Delta A-to-D converter, optimized for sample rates of less than a few hundred samples per second. 

Max sample rate is 1KSample/sec at reduced resolution 16-channel fault protect input mux switchable between single ended and differential topology.

Input ranges are software configurable from +2.5V/-2.0V down to +/-19.5mV in bipolar mode, or from 2.5V to 19.5mV in unipolar mode.

Power is available at the edge connector for signal conditioning, powering sensors etc.

Built in 16-bit counter with clock and gate inputs for event monitoring 8 general purpose digital I/O lines are available for control and status monitoring, each being programmable as input or output and having TTL compatible input thresholds, and CMOS type output drive capability.

Optional:
High-Level DAQ Driver V.3.0 supports LabVIEW, HP/Agilent VEE, TestPoint, DasyLab, HT-Basic, Visual Basic and Visual C/C++.
The DAQ Driver V.3.0 is compatible with the former INES DAQ Driver 2.7b and costs extra and includes a 90 days system developer support.
