Interface board between an analog headstage and an Intan amplifier board.

Standoff board

This board provides an interface between an analog headstage and Intan amplifiers. It is intended for use in small-animal electrophysiology.

The board currently supports 7 channels, matching the analog headstage linked above.

It also provides the option of stepping down a signal to match the amplifiers' input range. The current schematic provides a 62x attenuation, but any resistor pair may be substituted in the voltage dividers during construction. To pass a signal straight through, without attenuation, replace the appropriate resistor (one of R1-R7) with a jumper cable or zero-Ohm resistor, and remove the corresponding grounding resistor (one of R8-R14).
