The TTL Synchronization module for SlideBook 4.2 is a digital I/O board and software specifically designed to optimize the synchronization and speed of hardware operation. Normally, hardware device control lies on slower, RS-232 serial communication. This module utilizes TTL (transistor-transistor logic pulses to simultaneously trigger multiple devices. This module provides the precise timing necessary for applications such as rapid 4D image acquisition. TTL Synchronization comes complete with all hardware necessary for controlling devices through the digital I/O board, including a breakout box, PCI board, and cables.
TTL synchronization can be used in concert with other devices, such as electrophysiology instruments and perfusion systems. It can coordinate image capture to trigger external devices at specific times. TTL pulses can be generated by user input during an experiment or after a predefined number of frames. In addition, image capture can be triggered by TTL pulses generated by external systems, such as patch claps or signal generators.
