IQM-233
Low-Cost Deposition Control on a PCI Express Card
Product configurator
Gemini™ MxG5xx
The IQM-233 PCI Express card turns your PC into a thin film deposition controller. This INFICON designed and manufactured product is the ideal choice for system OEMs, or anyone wishing to incorporate a thin film deposition controller into an existing PC or PLC controlled system. Installation is simple—all you need is an unoccupied PCI Express slot. IQM-233 is available to fit in standard or small form factor PC towers.
Unparalleled Features
The IQM-233 features three QCM sensor inputs and three source outputs on each card. Up to two IQM-233 cards can be installed in a single PC (requires optional IQS-233 software), giving you a maximum of six sensor inputs and six source outputs. Only INFICON offers this level of flexibility in a fully integrated PC controlled QCM controller.
IQM-233 is compatible with INFICON oscillator IPN 782-900-010, so replacing an SQM-242 card does not require a new oscillator. It is also compatible with all INFICON single and dual sensor heads.
Choose The Software Solution Right For You
IQM-233 includes basic Windows® software for setup and control of simple sequential or codeposition processes with one IQM-233 card. The optional IQS-233 Codeposition Windows® software allows for more complex process setup, including multi-layer codeposition, graphing, and PLC integration with event selectable relay/input functions. IQS-233 software allows for use of up to two IQM-233 cards.
As an alternative for customers wanting to write their own software, the IQM-233 includes a LabVIEW™ sample program to provide basic functionality and demonstrate programming techniques.
