Description
The GPIB-140A is designed for a wide range of applications and meets the IEEE 488.1 and IEEE 488.2 standards, ensuring it is compatible with a broad array of devices.
This model comes with a variety of part numbers: 777997-01, 777997-02, 777997-03, 777997-04, 777997-05, and 777997-06, providing flexibility and options for specific requirements.
It falls under the GPIB category, which is known for its reliability and efficiency in enabling devices to communicate with each other.
One of the key features of the GPIB-140A is its ability to operate over a maximum distance of 1 km with a pair of GPIB Extenders. This extended range is made possible through the use of fiber-optic cable, which is known for its high-speed data transfer capabilities.
Speaking of speed, the GPIB-140A boasts a transfer speed that is faster than 2.8 Mbytes, thanks to the HS488 protocol. This ensures that data can be moved quickly and efficiently, reducing delays and improving overall performance.
The device utilizes a buffered transfer technique, which enhances the reliability of data transfers by temporarily storing data in a buffer until the receiving device is ready to process it. This method minimizes the risk of data loss and ensures that transfers are completed successfully.
Furthermore, the GPIB-140A offers software transparency, meaning it can be integrated into systems without the need for additional software modifications. This feature simplifies the installation process and ensures that the device can be up and running in no time.
