16-Channel VME RTD/Resistance Input Module
V410
The V410 is a 6U VME module that provides sixteen independent analog inputs that may be used to read RTDs, thermistors, and other similar resistive sensors. It can also read cryogenic diodes. Users may set input range and adjust other settings at VMEbus speed, and depending on the range selected the microprocessor will do the necessary calculations and output voltage, resistance, or temperature. Temperature conversion is available for 100Ω and 1000Ω, series 385 and 392, platinum RTDs.

16-Channel VME Multi-Range Digitizer
V490
The V490 includes 16 independent acquisition channels, each with a programmable-gain differential amplifier, analog anti-aliasing filter, 16-bit analog-to-digital converter, and digital post-processing. With a dedicated A/D converter per channel, the V490 provides true simultaneous sampling, which can be extended across multiple V490s or triggered from an external TTL signal.

64-Channel VME Relay Module
V210
The V210 is a single-wide, 6U VME module that includes 64 SPDT relays and drivers. User-settable DIP switches set the A16/A24 VME address mode, VME address, and select whether the relays are statically operated or operate in latching mode, where relay states are sustained when VME crate power is off.

Digital Delay Generators
Highland has introduced three unique features to digital delay generation: a "Queued Updates" feature allows time settings to be changed without corrupting ongoing timings; a "Train" feature allows multiple pulses to be generated from each trigger; and a "Frames" feature allows complex delay sweeps and pulse scenarios to be pre-loaded and rapidly executed. Digital delay and pulse generators are available in 1-6 channels, with square, Gaussian, and arbitrary waveshapes, and insertion delays as low as 10 nanoseconds.
