Using the past two decades of experience and best available technology, Neuroscan is pleased to offer the SynAmps RT to the Neuroscience community. SynAmps RT is our most advanced and versatile amplifier, capable of recording true DC potentials to the fastest ABRs.

The SynAmps RT is seamlessly compatible with all of our other systems. SynAmps RT was designed with specific engineering considerations to provide the best possible recordings in the MRI. SynAmps RT uses the same trigger connector that the original SynAmps and NuAmps use, so there is no need to modify your existing stimulus protocols.

SynAmps RT Highlights

  • SynAmps RTis a 70 channel amplifier system, consisting of 64 monopolar, 4 bipolar, and 2 high-level input channels (for receiving voltage outputs from other equipment) per headbox. Each channel has a dedicated 24 bit A-to-D converter, to ensure the most accurate sampling available.
  • Up to four head boxes can be combined with a single System Unit, creating a 256 channel system. Combine two System Units to create a super-high density system.
  • SynAmps RTis a true DC amplifier, allowing you to record slow potentials with no high pass filtering.
  • Sampling rates up to 20,000Hz (synchronized across all channels) let you record the fastest activity such as ABRs (maximum low pass filter is 3500Hz).
  • Low noise 24 bit A-to-D converters allow for low gain to be used while still maintaining the resolution and a broad dynamic range (making saturation almost impossible).
  • Clock synchronizationwith MR scanner triggers allows precise reduction of gradient artifact, without the need for fast sampling rates.
  • Active Noise Cancellationensures accurate recordings even in the most hostile electromagnetic environments.
  • De-blocking Circuitryallows for recording of TMS and other high intensity stimuli without affecting the integrity of the data.
  • Input impedanceof 10 GOhm.
  • Common Mode Rejection Ratioof 110 dB.
