Model 3600 16-Channel Extracellular AC Amplifier with Headstage The Model 3600 16-Channel Extracellular Amplifier with Headstage is intended for extracellular recording and/or stimulating with high impedance metal microelectrodes. Designed primarily for use in high-density recordings of neuronal action potentials studies, it is also quite capable in a variety of research or teaching applications such as nerve, muscle (EMG), EEG, EKG, and ERG recordings. The Model 3600 has 16 independent channels, a front panel touch screen, computer control capabilities, and a built-in calibrator. In addition, users can quickly monitor on an external oscilloscope the activity on any two channels. Each channel of the Model 3600 can be referenced to ground or a 17th reference electrode. Gain, high-pass, low-pass, Stim/Rec Headstage (rear left) & and line frequency (notch) filtering are completely independent for every channel. All Rec-Only Headstage (near right) channel settings can be accessed via the easy-to-use front panel touch screen interface 16 amplifiers in one instrument computer (see reverse for additional or via an application loaded on a Windows-based details). Ten gain stages up to x20,000 Eight high-pass filter settings Two different headstages are available. One is a microminiature headstage that can make simultaneous pseudo-differential recordings from 16 channels, and is smaller Eight low-pass filter settings than a dime! The other can stimulate and record to any combination of the 16 channels. In addition, the Stim/Rec headstage has a convenient dovetail to mount to common Notch filter for power line frequency micromanipulators. Controlled via front-panel touch screen or Common applications for the Model 3600 16-Channel Extracellular Amplifier with free Windows-based program Headstage include, but are not limited to: Easy access output monitors Single Cell Action Potentials Multiple-Unit Recordings Waveform Sorting Long-term Potentiation Can pass stimulation current to electrodes Evoked Potentials EEG / EMG / EKG / ERG recordings (with Stim/Rec headstage) The Model 3600 16-Channel Extracellular Amplifier with Headstage is designed for Includes rack mount hardware research grade recording quality; its straightforward interface also makes it ideal for 3-year warranty teaching applications. Model 3600 16-Channel Extracellular AC Amplifier with Headstage In addition to the easy-to-use touchscreen interface on Software the Model 3600’s front panel, the instrument can also be controlled by a free Windows-based application. This program controls all aspects of the amplifier, including channel settings and program names. It can read the current settings of the instrument, as well as load programs previously stored on the instrument or on the host computer. Multiple Model 3600’s can be controlled by a single application. Note-logging capabilities are included, allowing researchers to make time-stamped notations about their experiment as they collect data.
