We present spatially resolved kinematics and global stellar populations andmass-to-light ratios for a sample of 39 dwarf early-type (dE) galaxies in theVirgo cluster studied as part of the SMAKCED stellar absorption-linespectroscopy and imaging survey. This sample is representative of theearly-type population in the absolute magnitude range -19.0 < M_r < -16.0. Foreach dE, we measure the rotation curve and velocity dispersion profile and fitan analytic function to the rotation curve. We study the significance of thedeparture of the rotation curve from the best fit analytic function (poorlyfit) and of the difference between the approaching and receding sides of therotation curve (asymmetry). We find that 62 +/- 8 % (23 out of the 39) of thedEs have a significant anomaly in their rotation curve. Analysis of the imagesreveals photometric anomalies for most galaxies. However, there is no clearcorrelation between the significance of the photometric and kinematicanomalies. We measure age-sensitive and metallicity-sensitive Lick spectralindices and find a wide range of ages and metallicities. We also find that 4dEs have emission partially filling in the Balmer absorption lines. Finally, weestimate the total masses and dark matter fractions of the dEs. They have amedian total mass and dark matter fraction within the Re of log Me = 9.1 +/-0.2 and f_DM = 46 +/- 18 %. We plot several scaling relations and show that dEsseem to be the bridge between massive early-type and dwarf spheroidal galaxies.
