ADC-11/12 12-bits PC Data acquisition

Obsolete Product

The ADC-11/12 parallel is no longer manufactured and sold
Please see PICO PicoLog 1216 for replacement

11 channel low cost data logger, 12-bit resolution.

The ADC-11/10 connects to the PC parallel port and provides 11 channels of analog input in a case slightly larger than a matchbox. The ADC-11/10 has 12-bit resolution.
The ADC-11 terminal block provides screw terminals to simplify connections to the inputs.

  • 11 channels
  • No power supply required
  • Digital output for control
  • Data acquisition software included

Resolution and Accuracy
Two different versions of the ADC-11 are available: the ADC-11/10 features 10 bit resolution, whilst the ADC-11/12 has 12 bit resolution — making it suitable for detecting very small signal changes.
With data acquisition the accuracy of your measurements is paramount which is why the ADC-11/ are accurate to within 1 %, and the ADC-11/12 to within 0.5 %.

No need for power supplies or batteries
The ADC-11 is powered directly by your PC — eliminating the need for batteries or a separate power supply, and making them ideal when you need a portable data acquisition solution.

Control alarms and other devices
The ADC-11 includes a digital output — this can be used to control alarms or other devices, additionally the output can also be used to power sensors such as thermistors.

Data acquisition software
All products in the Pico data logger range come complete with PicoLog — this powerful, but flexible, data acquisition software allows you to collect, manipulate, analyse, and display and export data.
Updates to PicoLog are available from our website, and you can download a demo of PicoLog to see just how versatile it is.
