ADU-11e

about to be finalized May 2025

The ADU-11e (Analog Digital Unit) is a HF logger with 8 channels and 131 kHz max. continuous sample rate on 6 channels, 64 kHz on 8 channels and with 1024 Hz lowest native sample rate. Online filtering with 8x, 32x.
The system has a single mainboard with all channels integrated and soldered GPS (GPS, Galileo, Glonass, BeiDou). The CPU is an ARM quad core 64bit.

One of the design aims is to keep the system small and light weight for airborne applications (250 g board and 250 g connectors).
The channel configuration is 2xE and 6xH.
3 H channels can be connected to a SHFT-02e or SHFT-03e and the other 3 H channels to a FGS-04e type fluxgate (airborne)
GPS data will be written @0.1Hz for control.
For ground based recordings you connect coils like MFS-06e, MFS-07e or MFS-12e and an electric field.
You can also connect a SHFT-03e while recording with the default coils; for example acquiring dedicated AMT data with this specialized sensor
For extended LF recordings with 6 magnetic fields, use the ADU-12e. However the combination of ADU-10e and ADU-11e is more flexible and has the same price.
While doing LF measurement with the ADU-10e and using the 10e as remote reference station, you can use the ADU-11e for the HF/LF data.
