To meet the needs of our research programmes on auditory prostheses for the totally deaf, a 15-channel data acquisition and waveform generator system with flexible triggering, pacing and linking was developed. It allows both synchronous and asynchronous operation at high speed. Each channel of the system, which is controlled by a simple personal computer, has an on-board microcontroller, a 512 kWord signal memory, a voltage input and both voltage and current outputs. The system includes a master pacer and trigger unit with elaborate hardware and software triggering options. This paper describes the system hardware and the software used to control it. Finally, some of its application are demonstrated. The flexibility of the system makes it widely applicable in the field of biomedical engineering.
为满足我们针对全聋患者的听觉假体研究项目的需求,我们开发了一个具有灵活触发、起搏和链接功能的15通道数据采集与波形发生器系统。它允许高速同步和异步操作。该系统的每个通道由一台简单的个人计算机控制,都有一个板载微控制器、一个512千字节的信号存储器、一个电压输入以及电压和电流输出。该系统包括一个主起搏器和触发单元,具有精心设计的硬件和软件触发选项。本文描述了系统硬件及其控制软件。最后,展示了它的一些应用。该系统的灵活性使其在生物医学工程领域具有广泛的适用性。
