USB-1608GX-2AO-OEM 16-Bit, 500 kS/s, Multifunction USB Data Acquisition Board

Description

USB-1608G-OEM Series boards are low-cost, high-speed, analog and digital I/O USB boards. All of these boards offer up to eight DIFF or 16 SE analog inputs, up to eight digital I/O channels, two counter inputs, and one timer output.

The USB-1608GX-2AO-OEM offers two, 16-bit analog output channels with DAC rates up to 500 kS/s.

USB-1608G-OEM Series are board-only form factors with header connectors for OEM and embedded applications. All boards can be further customized to meet customer needs.

Analog Input
USB-1608G-OEM Series boards provide 16-bit analog inputs that are software-selectable as 16 SE or eight DIFF inputs. These boards also support input ranges of ±10 V, ±5 V, ±2 V, and ±1 V that are software-selectable per channel.

Analog Output - (USB-1608GX-2AO-OEM only)
The USB-1608GX-2AO-OEM board has two 16-bit analog outputs that can be updated at a rate of 250 kS/s per channel; one output can be updated at a rate of 500 kS/s. The output range is fixed at ±10 V. The outputs default to 0 V when the host PC is shut down or suspended, or when a reset command is issued to the device.

Trigger Input
USB-1608G-OEM Series boards have an external digital trigger input. The trigger mode is software-selectable for edge- or level-sensitive mode.

You can configure edge-sensitive mode for either rising or falling edge. In level sensitive mode, you can configure for either high or low level. The default setting at power up is edge-sensitive, rising edge.

Retrigger Mode
In retrigger mode, you can set up repetitive analog input trigger events. The trigger is automatically re-armed after it is activated. Use software to set the A/D trigger count (the number of samples you want per trigger).

Digital I/O
Eight bidirectional digital I/O connections are included with USB-1608G-OEM Series boards. Each digital channel is individually configurable for input or output. The digital I/O terminals can detect the state of any TTL-level input. You can configure for pull-up (+5 V) or pull-down (0 V) through a jumper.

Counter Input
Each USB-1608G-OEM Series board includes two 32-bit event counters for counting TTL pulses. The counters accept frequency inputs of up to 20 MHz.

Timer Output
USB-1608G-OEM Series boards have a PWM timer output that can generate a pulse output with a programmable frequency in the range of 0.0149 Hz to 32 MHz. The timer output parameters are software-selectable.

External Clock I/O
USB-1608G-OEM Series boards provide one external clock input and one external clock output for the analog inputs. The USB-1608GX-2AO-OEM also has one external clock input and one external clock output for the analog outputs.
