Description
Keithley PC6112 DAS-8 Data Acquisition Card ISA Bus 8-Channel Analog Input
The Keithley PC6112 is an ISA-bus data acquisition card from Keithley's DAS-8 product line, designed to add multi-channel analog input and digital I/O capability to IBM PC/XT/AT-compatible computers. The board revision is F (14008 Rev F), and the card features a 37-pin D-sub (DB37) connector on the slot bracket for connection to external signal sources and breakout accessories. The base I/O address is configurable via an onboard DIP switch (S1), allowing the card to coexist with other ISA peripherals.

Applications
The DAS-8 series of data acquisition cards was developed for PC-based laboratory automation, scientific data logging, and instrumentation applications during the ISA-bus era of the late 1980s through the mid-1990s. These cards were widely used in research labs, universities, and industrial test environments where real-world analog signals — voltage, current, temperature via transducers — needed to be digitized and processed by a PC. The PC6112 connects to Keithley signal conditioning accessories and breakout boards via its DB37 interface, enabling setups with sensors, thermocouples, and other transducers. Keithley's DAS-8 compatible software and drivers supported languages including QuickBASIC, C, and later Windows environments. Today these cards are primarily sought by engineers and researchers maintaining legacy PC-based data acquisition systems, as well as vintage computing enthusiasts.
This Keithley PC6112 DAS-8 Data Acquisition Card has been tested and is in good working condition. The PCB is clean with no visible damage, corrosion, or missing components. The DB37 I/O connector and ISA edge connector are in good shape. The board shows normal light handling wear consistent with prior lab use.
