Electrophysiological setups have to be increasingly flexible nowadays. More parameters than ever need to be acquired or altered simultaneously during data acquisition. Controlling bath perfusion or synchronizing other peripheral devices with data acquisition are standard routines in many laboratories today. The TIB 14S is fully supported by the HEKA software, enabling the simultaneous control of numerous devices, such as magnetic valves, shutters, stimulators, etc. within one software application. The open collector outputs can optionally carry three different voltages which, in contrast to other digital I/O boards, obligates the use of additional hardware to drive external devices.

The TIB 14S is a digital output trigger interface to be used with a fully computer controlled patch clamp amplifier EPC 10 or EPC 9 which have an AD/DA converter interface built-in or with a stand alone interface ITC- 16 or LIH 1600. The TIB 14S provides your system with 14 TTL outputs and 14 open collector power outputs which will enable you to control several devices, directly from your software.

• 14 switches on the front panel for manual control of the channels
• Boost channels provide an initial 40 V pulse of 23 ms duration for facilitated valve opening

• 14 BNC connectors with TTL outputs on the front panel
• 14 TRIGGER OUT open collector outputs (6V; 12V; 24V; max. 1 Amp) on the rear panel to control up to 14 devices. See Pin assignment
• The state of the trigger outputs is indicated by LED's
• Supported by the PATCHMASTER and TIDA software.
