The Digidata 1550B plus HumSilencer provides a cost-effective, non-invasive alternative to heavy Faraday cages for many intracellular and patch-clamp recordings. By adaptively cancelling 50/60 Hz hum at the digitizer input, it preserves signal fidelity while reducing lab infrastructure constraints. Molecular Devices could implement HumSilencer as a firmware upgrade for existing 1550B units (using external reference input) or as a new model: Digidata 1550B-HS.
Depending on the configuration, it can handle up to 4 channels of HumSilencer in parallel, making it ideal for cellular network studies or recording from multiple cells simultaneously. Technical Specifications Input Range -10 V to +10 V Resolution Max Noise Amplitude 20 V peak-to-peak Software Compatibility Optimized for pCLAMP 11 and AxoScope 11 Connectivity High-speed USB 2.0 Available Configurations digidata 1550b plus humsilencer
