5 – Determine power requirements
Depending on the power needs of your system’s DBK cards, you may need to add a power card. Refer to
Calculating Your Power Needs in chapter 5 of the DaqBook/DaqBoard/Daq PC-Card User’s Manual.
A. Use the DBK Power Requirements Work Table to calculate the power requirements of your system’s DBK
cards.
B. Use the Available Power Chart to determine your system’s power availability.
C. If the required power in step 5A is more than the available power in step 5B, you need an additional power
card. There are three auxiliary power supply cards:
• DBK32A – For use with a LogBook, DaqBook, or DaqBoard. It supplies ±15 V.
