BLUE-DAC 4-Channel Analog Controller, Axis 5/6, and
Video Autofocus Module for OASIS-blue
The Objective Imaging BLUE-DAC is an optional plug-in daughter board
for the OASIS-blue controller, providing four
channels of analog I/O, video autofocus, and control electronics for axes
5 and 6.
The BLUE-DAC offers four channels of 16-bit
digital to analog converters ideally suited for Piezo focus and other
applications where 0-10V analog control is required. The BLUE-DAC
module includes one on-board DAC channel output to allow easy connection
of a Piezo focus amplifier.
The BLUE-DAC includes an on-board analog video
digitizer with goodness of focus scoring and advanced features such as
dual thresholding (one per interlace) with area and maximum chord length
measurement hardware, all done at camera frame-rates.
Also, when used in conjunction with the BLUE-CONNECT
output PCB, the BLUE-DAC offers control electroncis to expand the
OASIS-blue from four to six total axes.
