The Digilent MCC USB-1608G-2AO High-Speed Multifunction USB DAQ is a multifunction, high-speed, analog, and digital I/O USB device. Offers up to 16 SE/8 DIFF analog inputs, eight digital I/O channels, two counter inputs, and one-timer output. The USB-1608GX-2AO features two, 16-bit analog output channels with DAC rates up to 500 kS/s.
USB-1608G Series devices have an external digital trigger input. The trigger mode is software-selectable for an edge- or level-sensitive mode. You can configure edge-sensitive mode for either rising or falling edges. In level-sensitive mode, you can configure for either high or low levels.
The default setting at power-up is edge-sensitive, rising edge.
Software support includes free DAQami software for out-of-the-box data logging, viewing of data, and generating signals. Also included are drivers for the most popular applications and programming languages including Visual C++, Visual C#, Visual Basic.NET, DASYLab, LabVIEW, MATLAB, Linux, and Python.
Retrigger mode: Users can set up repetitive analog input trigger events. The trigger is automatically re-armed after it is activated. The A/D trigger count (the number of samples you want per trigger) is configurable with software.
Digital I/O: Eight bidirectional digital I/O lines are individually configurable for input or output. The DIO terminals can detect the state of any TTL-level input. Users can configure for pull-up (+5 V) or pull-down (0 V) with an onboard jumper.
Counter Input: Two 32-bit event counters are provided to count TTL pulses. The counters accept inputs of up to 20 MHz.
Timer Output: The PWM timer output generates a pulse output with a programmable frequency in the range of 0.0149 Hz to 32 MHz. The timer output parameters are software selectable.
