Using DBK Cards and Modules for Signal Conditioning  
 
The DBK signal-conditioning cards and modules are designed for use with DaqLab, DaqScan, 
DaqBook, LogBook, and various data acquisition boards, i.e., ISA, PCI, and compact-PCI 
types.  The DBKs perform best when used with an acquisition device that can dynamically 
select channel, gain, and range.  DBK cards and modules with dynamic channel and 
gain/range selection allow for high channel-to-channel scan rates with a variety of 
transducers. 
Note:  Only passive DBKs, such as the DBK1 BNC module, the DBK11A screw terminal card, 
and the DBK40 BNC analog interface, can be used with Daq PC-Cards. 
DBK output signals can be bipolar, e.g., -5 to +5 V, or unipolar, e.g., 0 to 10 V.  The user can 
select a range of relevant values to correspond to the lowest signal (e.g., -5 or 0 V) and the 
highest signal (e.g., 5 or 10 V) signal.  This type of range selection guarantees the highest 
resolution in 12-bit or 16-bit conversion. 
DBK modules share the same footprint as the DaqBook and a typical notebook PCs; allowing 
for convenient stacking.  The majority of these modules have their own power supply; 
however, several options exist for packaging and powering the DBKs.
