USB-1208FS-Plus

Description

The USB-1208FS-Plus offers four differential (DIFF) or eight single-ended (SE) analog inputs, two 12-bit analog output channels, 16 DIO channels, and one event counter.

Everything you need to begin acquiring, viewing, and storing data is included, plus comprehensive software support.

Analog Input: The USB-1208FS-Plus provides eight 11-bit SE analog inputs or four 12-bit DIFF analog inputs. The device offers software-selectable analog input ranges from ±1 V to ±20 V in a DIFF configuration, and ±10 V in a SE configuration.

Sampling Rate: When scanning continuously to computer memory (hardware-paced mode), the device has a 50 kS/s maximum sampling rate.

Channel-Gain Queue: The channel-gain queue feature lets you configure a list of channels and gains for each scan. Each channel can have a different gain setting. The gain settings are stored in a channel-gain queue list that is written to local memory on the device.

The USB-1208FS-Plus channel-gain queue list can contain up to eight unique channels in SE mode and up to four unique channels in DIFF mode. The channels can be non-consecutive, but must be listed in increasing order.

Analog Output: The USB-1208FS-Plus offers two 12-bit analog outputs with a range of 0 V to 5 V.

The maximum update rate for the analog outputs depends on several factors, including the speed of your USB port.

When updating continuously from computer memory (hardware-paced mode), the analog output updates at a maximum rate of 50 kS/s per channel.

Digital I/O: The USB-1208FS-Plus provides 16 TTL-level digital I/O lines. Digital I/O can be programmed in 8-bit ports for either input or output.

Pull-Up/Pull-Down Configuration: The USB-1208FS-Plus has a user-configurable internal jumper to configure the digital bits for pull-up (default) or pull-down.

Counter Input: The device supports one 32-bit TTL-level counter that accepts frequency inputs up to 1 MHz.

External Clock: The USB-1208FS-Plus has a bidirectional external clock terminal. When configured for input, A/D conversions can be paced by an external source. The device supports 50 kHz maximum TTL-level input signals. When configured for output, the device paces A/D conversions on a second device.
