Adept offers USB-2416-XX data acquisition device

An Adept Scientific product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jan 9, 2009

Adept Scientific has added the USB-2416-XX data acquisition device from Measurement Computing Corporation to its range.

The spectrum of different signals and applications to which the USB-2416XX range can be applied gives it a multifunctional DAQ role.

The device incorporates plug-and-play flexibility and is a measurement and control instrument designed for the USB bus.

It is a multiplexed 24-bit measurement system that provides up to 16 differential and up to 32 single-ended (SE) analogue inputs with a 1kS/s aggregate throughput.

It offers nine software-selectable analogue input ranges (+/-20V, +/-10V, +/-5V, +/-2.5V, +/-1.25V, +/-0.625V, +/-0.312V, +/-0.156V and +/-0.078V).

The analogue inputs can also be configured as thermocouple inputs (up to 16 differentials).

In thermocouple mode, both the USB-2416 and the USB-2416-4AO include built-in cold-junction compensation and open thermocouple detection.

In addition to the analogue inputs, the USB-2416-XX includes eight lines of digital I/O and two 32-bit counters, plus four 16-bit analogue outputs with an update rate of 1kS/s, and an output range of +/-10V.

The USB-2416-XX provides 500V DC isolation between the field wiring and the USB interface.

The PS-5V2AEPS 10W regulated power supply (included) provides the 5V DC, 2A power to the USB-2416-XX.

As with all Measurement Computing data acquisition products, the devices are supported by the Universal Library, programming libraries and drivers for most popular Windows-based programming languages.

This complete function library saves the user time by simplifying the configuration and operation of the measurement board and reducing human errors by eliminating detailed, low-level functions.

The Universal Library requires little disk storage, making it ideal for integration into multiple instrument systems and OEM products.

In addition to the Universal Library, all USB DAQ modules ship with an array of software.
