E1701A analogue scanner card is a low-cost scanner card with the smallest ground-size and it is the only one which can be extended by additional boards providing different signals and outputs. So it is not necessary to buy one fully featured card and to pay for functions that are not needed. Via its extension boards only these functions and I/Os can be added, that are really required. These extension boards are plugged onto baseboard. Several of them can be combined freely according to required functionality.
E1701A is an analogue scanner card which can be extended by options described below and provides following features:
16 bit analogue interface to scanhead with X and Y channel, ±5V and ±10V output
3x 12 bit additional analogue outputs, 0..5V output
ILDA-capable interface
USB 2.0 and 100 Mbit Ethernet connection
online XY grid correction with support for several correction table file formats (like BeamConstruct HD .bco correction files, SCAPS™ .ucf, Scanlab™ .ctb and .ct5, Raylase™ .gcd, GSI/CTI™ .xml)
switching between up to 16 grid correction tables during marking process
10 microseconds vector cycle time and resolution (microstep period)
command execution time down to 0, 5 microseconds
realtime processing of laser and scanner signals
26 bit internal resolution (for better quality also with 16 bit hardware output)
can control nearly every laser type
can control nearly every laser type (this may require extension boards as described below)
two laser CMOS level digital outputs for usage with YAG, CO2, IPG™, SPI™ and compatible laser types (outputs can provide PWM frequency, Q-Switch, FPK-pulse, continuously running frequency, stand-by frequency), running with frequencies up to 20 MHz
LP8 8 bit CMOS level parallel digital output e.g. for controlling laser power
LP8 latch CMOS level digital output for usage with IPG™ and compatible laser types
Master Oscillator CMOS level digital output for usage with IPG™ and compatible laser types
8 bit 0..5V analogue output e.g. for controlling laser power
8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs can be switched to opto-insulated mode with external power supply of up to 24 V
2 inputs can be used for 90 degree phase-shifted encoder signal for marking on-the-fly applications
512 MByte DDR3 RAM
1 GHz CPU clock
support for Micro-SD and Micro-SDHC cards
internal command and vector data list with more than 20 million entries
continuous list concept, no need to swap between buffers
BeamConstruct PRO license included
open source compatibility library that emulates existing programming interface for fast and easy usage with existing software (contains e.g. Scanlab™ RTC4™, SCAPS™ USC™/SCI and other compatible interfaces)
very small size of about 87 mm x 55 mm
shipped with easy to use connection kit
hardware/firmware is quality made in EU/Germany
