These SOA drivers are compatible with any SOA or BOA with butterfly form factor on the market. They are the most compact SOA drivers with such performances and this makes them an ideal tool for OEM integration into your product. All driver versions include a GUI control software and a wide choice of libraries for software integration (Labview, DLLs, Python, Hexa etc.).
