**INTRODUCTION**

The B-Engine(BE) is a C/C++ programmable controller with +-10V bipolar analog inputs. It is intended for industrial control, power-line monitoring, high-speed data acquisition. With its high reliability and low cost, it is ideal for industrial OEM applications. A true bipolar, simultaneous sampling ADC (AD7606, 16-bit or AD7607, 14-bit) can accept +-10V or +-5V true bipolar analog signals while sampling at throughput rates up to 200 kSPS for all 8 analog inputs. Each analog input contains second-order antialansing filter, sample-and-hold amplifier and clamp protection tolerant up to +-16.5V. With 1M ohm analog input impedance, a 7KV ESD rating, and sustaining up to +-10 mA input current, the analog inputs are designed to survive in a rough industrial environment. The BE allows simultaneous sampling on all eight analog inputs. Via 16-bit parallel interface, DMA operation can transfer 8 16-bit data into RAM or CompactFlash cards with low software overhead. A 4 channel, 16-bit parallel DAC (DAC8544) can be installed. Its on-chip output amplifier allows rail-to-rail voltage output (0-5V). A Fast Ethernet Module can be installed to provide 100M Base-T network connectivity. The BE supports mass storage CompactFlash cards with Windows compatible FAT16 file system. The BE features 16-bit ACTF Flash, battery-backed SRAM (256 KW), timers, PWMs, 20+ PIOs, EEPROM, two UARTs, counters, and a watchdog timer. PIO pins are multifunctional and user programmable. A real time clock (RTC27423, Epson) is available. The BE is powered via regulated 5V.

**FEATURES**

Worry about ADC inputs damaged in the field due to input signal over voltage, reverse polarity, power surge ? The ADC on the B-Engine is a true bipolar, simultaneous sampling ADC (AD7606, 16-bit or AD7607, 14-bit). The ADC can accept +-10V or +-5V true bipolar analog signals while sampling at throughput rates up to 200 kSPS for all 8 analog inputs. Each analog input contains second-order antialansing filter, sample-and-hold amplifier and clamp protection tolerant up to +-16.5V. With 1M ohm analog input impedance, a 7000V ESD rating, and sustaining up to +-10 mA input current.
