Dayton Audio DATS V3 Computer Based Speaker & Audio Component Test System

Dayton Audio
Part #390-807  
Dayton Audio has taken the most complete and easy-to-use audio test system and improved it in almost every way when creating the DATS V3 Computer Based Audio Component Test System. With improvements to the accuracy, capability, and reliability of the DATS V2, the DATS V3 sets a new standard for quick and accurate audio component measurements.
Key Features
  • Rugged aluminum housing with detachable test leads and built-in precision calibration resistor
  • Tighter tolerances on internal components for more precise measurements
  • Increased output capability means greater separation from the noise floor, resulting in more accurate measurements
  • DATS Linearity Test for comparing parameters and impedance plots at multiple drive levels
  • Optional under desk mounting brackets included to save desk space
  • Only 1" H x 2-1/2" W x 4-1/8" D for easy portability

Dayton Audio DATS V3 Computer Based Speaker & Audio Component Test System

The Perfect Companion for Audio Professionals

When designing the DATS V3 measurement device, Dayton Audio took everything customers love about the DATS V2 and improved upon the accuracy, capability, reliability, convenience, and flexibility.

 

Features

  • For professionals and hobbyists--design and tune speaker systems and arrays
  • Accurate measurement of loudspeaker electromechanical parameters (Fs, Qts, Vas, and many more)
  • Measurement of advanced Wright Model parameters (Kr, Xr, Ki, Xi) for precision simulations
  • Software signal generator with selectable waveform, frequency, and amplitude
  • Oscilloscope software mode with dual traces, plus adjustable time and amplitude scales
  • Connects to your PC via USB port
  • Compact, portable, accurate, affordable
  • Optional under desk mounting brackets to save desk space
 

Measurements

The DATS V3 software provides you with an array of tools that are great for all speaker designers

  • Measures T/S Parameters
  • Linearity Test
  • Efficient Pass/Fail Workflow
  • Calculates VAS from Mmd
  • Resistor Measurment
  • Signal Generator with 10 different functions
  • Measures advanced Wright Model parameters
  • Rub and Buzz Detection
  • Oscilloscope with dual traces
  • Capacitor Measurement
 

T/S Parameter Measurement

Quickly and accurately measure a drivers T/S parameters. Just attach the test leads directly to a driver's terminals and click "Measure Free-Air Parameters" and the impedance magnitude will be displayed on the graph along with the measured Re, Fs, Qts, Qes, Qms, and Le. Next add mass to the cone or mount the driver in a suitable test box and click "Measure V(as)" to derive the mechanical parameters such as Vas and Mms.

Enclosure Tuning Verification

Once your driver is mounted in an enclosure DATS V3 makes it easy to verify your system's overall tuning for vented enclosures or Q for sealed enclosures by using the "Measure Free Air Parameters" button. The system will run a quick sweep and plot the impedance magnitude making it easy to verify the actual tuning of your system.

 

Verify Crossover Wiring and Performance

Once your speaker system is complete, you can run an "Impedance Sweep" to plot the overall system impedance. A quick comparison of the measured impedance to your modeled impedance makes it easy to ensure that your crossover is wired correctly and performing as intended.

Oscilloscope and Signal Generator

A software oscilloscope allows you to visually observe the behavior of a circuit when presented with or without stimuli. Used in conjunction with the built-in signal generator, you'll be able to hunt down any strange phenomena, or confirm that your system is running properly.

 

Precision LCR Meter

 

Capacitor Measurements

As a capacitance meter DATS V3 is in a league of its own. In seconds, it will measure all of a capacitor's electrical characteristics including capacitance, equivalent series resistance, Q, and even loss angle. DATS V3 is capable of accurately measure capacitance from 0.002 uF to 10,000 uF.

Inductor Measurements

Measure both the inductance and DC resistance of a coil with just one click. The DATS V3 is accurate from 0.05 mH up to 100 mH.

Resistor Measurements

Naturally, DATS V3 is also perfect for measuring resistance. As a unique feature, it will also plot the impedance of a resistor allowing you to see just how non-inductive your resistors really are. Resistance measurements are accurate from 0.002 ohms up to 10,000 ohms.
