 Universal Isolated Stimulator Output

 
  • Generates isolated Stimuli in the range of 0-100 Volt
  • Can be connected to any stimulator delivering a trigger signal
  • Can be used in combination with a trigger output generated by a computer software as a power amplifier

Applications:
- Electrophysiology
- In case of simultaneous biopotential recording

This unit is required to produce ungrounded (isolated or floating) stimuli and prevent interference in any biopotentials (ECG, EMG, EEG etc.) which are recorded simultaneously. It can be connected to virtually any type of stimulator delivering a trigger pulse with the same width as the stimulus duration. The input for the trigger impulse is a BNC socket on the back plane. It can also be connected to a TTL trigger output generated by a software on a computer as a power amplifier. A switch selects the output amplitude range (0-50, 0-l00 Volt). Fine adjustment is provided by the fine control on a 10-turn Potentiometer Stimuli produced can be either monopolar (positive or negative), or alternated. Alternated stimulation avoids electrode polarisation.

Two ranges 0 to 50 Volt, 0 to 100 Volt

Stimuli Output Current

1.8 to 2 A for stimuli duration <100 µsec, 0.5 A at 10 msec stimuli duration

Stimuli Polarity

Positive, Negative, Alternating
