Since 1979, Macro Inc. has developed a variety of special software and hardware signal processing systems for nuclear and neuroscience measurements. Along the way we have also developed several commercial billing systems, something we enjoy doing also. We can easily modify these systems to suit your needs.
[APES] - Affective Picture Evaluation System. Presents
standard NIMH images (IAPS) and/or stimuli to human subjects and records conditioned and unconditioned responses.
[WISP] - Watership Down for Windows. Classical
conditioning and monitoring of up to 4 subjects. Presents stimuli and records conditioned and unconditioned responses.
[ERGS] - Enhanced analysis of gamma ray spectra for
industrial and nuclear fuel applications. Special data collection electronics provided for large arrays of
gamma ray detectors that use photo-multiplier tubes (PMT) for real time data collection and analysis,
in a production environment, of plutonium (Pu238), uranium (U235), mixtures thereof
and other gamma emitting radio nuclides.
[PulP] - Pulmonary Processing. Collects data from pulmonary
monitoring instruments and reports on subject's pre and post exposure condition.
[IRON] - Inventory and Billing system for metal, or special
commodity, distributors and service providers.
[KC97] - Dual PMT (photomultipier tube) interface ISA
card with fully programmable: high voltage power supplies, picoamp level current integrators, timers and scalers. Features unique 100% self test. Wide range input from photomultiplier tubes
(PMTs).
[KC99] - Compact ISA card with 20 - 16 bit
scalers.
[KC21] - ISA card with 8 single channel pulse
height analyzers.
[KR22] - A standalone output board with 16 DPDT relays. Relay
contacts are brought out to terminal blocks. Can be directly driven by industry standard 24 bit I/O modules,
DT283x I/O boards or discrete wires.
[KC03] - A full length ISA card with 8 independent channels.
Each channel has it's own MCX 50 ohm coaxial input, amplifier, pulse height discriminator with
programmable lower and upper thresholds and buffered 16 bit count accumulators for pulses in between, and above, the lower and upper thresholds.
[KV03] - A companion to the KC03, this is a stand alone card with 8 independent channels.
Each channel has it's own PMT socket input, pre-amplifier, MCX 50 ohm coaxial output and programmable high voltage output (positive or negative) 0 - 1250 VDC.
The KV03 is connected to a computer by a standard 8 bit parallel I/O card (DIO24, PIO12 etc.). Up to 63 KV03 cards may be daisy chained together.
We make custom electronic printed circuit boards from your schematics or sketches.
We'll help you choose components and then design the board. We'll breadboard if
necessary (usually) and then make prototypes for you. We can do this for USB and ISA/PCI bus systems, or for stand alone analog/digital data and signal processing.
We do DEC (Digital Equipment Corp.) data and application conversions for
PDP11 operating systems: RT11, RSTS/E and RSX11M. We can get the data off your DEC tapes,
diskettes and disks and on to CD's for you.
We develop custom Windows or Linux scientific
and industrial data collection and signal processing systems for you that require special hardware.
We also like to develop unique commercial and utility billing systems.
We can make your legacy software and hardware systems more modern
and maintainable.
