Since March 2008 Spectrum is equipping all cards of the M2i series with a standard memory of 256 MByte (128 MSample at 12/14/16 bit analogue resolution). With this standard memory one can per example acquire one 8 bit channel with 200 MS/s for more than 1 second. A standard memory of 256 MByte is available for the PCI, PCI-X and PCI Express cards of Spectrum. A maximum memory of 4 GByte (2 GSample on 12/14/16 bit analogue resolution) is also available. All options are cost-effective. These new standard memory equipment is valid for the complete range of M2i and M2i Express cards - being in total more than 100 different A/D, D/A and Digital I/O models available with 256 MByte now. All cards of the M2i series may be synchronised using the internal sync-bus. This allows to generate massive parallel acquisition systems with more than 1000 channels as well as mixed mode systems with A/D, D/A and Digital I/O cards used synchronised.The card is delivered with drivers for Windows 2000, XP, Vista as well as Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6. On all operating systems the 32 bit as well as the 64 bit versions are supported. The easy-to-program drivers and the examples together with the detailed documentation allow a fast development of own applications. There are also drivers for MATLAB, LabVIEW, LabWindows, DASYLab and VEE available from Spectrum.
