- Interface 40C to Logic Level, Speed Amp #892E
Interface 40C to Logic Level, Speed Amp #892E
Convert the 40C Anemometer from AC sine wave to square wave.
Configuration Options
#2041
INTERFACE 40C TO LOGIC LEVEL, SPEED AMP #892E
Details
The 892 Speed Amp interface converts the AC sine wave signal produced by the NRG 40C Anemometer (or any sensor with a compatible output) to a high-level, square wave signal.
This high-level signal is compatible with many data acquisition systems with frequency input capabilities. The 892 Speed Amp's low power consumption makes it ideal for use with battery-powered data acquisition systems.
