Lab-NB User Manual
About This Manual
This manual describes the mechanical and electrical aspects of the Lab-NB and contains
information concerning its installation and operation. The Lab-NB is a low-cost multifunction
analog, digital, and timing I/O board for Macintosh NuBus computers. It contains a 12-bit
successive-approximation A/D converter (ADC) with eight analog inputs, two 12-bit D/A
converters (DACs) with voltage outputs, 24 lines of transistor-transistor logic (TTL) compatible
digital I/O, and three 16-bit counter/timer channels for timing I/O.
