# Introduction

The PCIe-9524 is a robust, multi-purpose module designed for turnkey material test systems (MTS). Equipped with four strain gaugebased full-bridge transducer input channels, four general purpose analog input channels, and a 3-axis motion controller, the PCIe-9524 delivers a complete hardware solution for MTS manufacturers.

The PCIe-9524 easily integrates physical quantity measurement and implements software-based close-loop control in a single module package. For transducer measurement, the PCIe-9524 supports sensitivity from 1.0 mV/V to 4.0 mV/V and provides a 1/200000 accuracy of measurement of full scale (with remote sense & auto-zero enabled). These features make the PCIe-9524 suitable for precise measurement in large-scale transducers.

The PCIe-9524 is also equipped with four, 24-bit general purpose analog input channels that allow accurate measurements of the LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transducer) and linear wire potentiometer signals to achieve a high-resolution of displacement.

With motion control capability and 16-bit DA channels, the PCIe-9524 comes with three stepper/servo motor axes and two channels of hydraulic system control function.

The impressive PCIe-9524 features permit easy implementation of required control or measurement functionalities with just a single module, saving precious development and integration time for MTS manufacturers, CNC machines, and civil testing equipment.
