Headstage Combiner Unit (HCU)
The Headstage Combiner Unit (HCU) combines neural data streams from multiple independent headstages into a single data stream which is sent to the Main Control Unit (MCU) for further processing.
- Optimized for headfixed recording experiment
- Combines up to 8 headstage streams of 32, 64, or 128 channels (up to 1024 channels per HCU) into one data stream
- Combine multiple HCUs via daisy-chaining for experiments requiring many headstages
- 5V power supply
- Mounting L-brackets
- 19″ rack mount
- HDMI cables: A-A and A-D
