- 16-bit resolution analog-inputs and outputs, 8 digital-I/O-channels.
- USB-powered device.
Digilent MCC USB-230 Series Multifunction USB DAQ Devices
The USB-231 (OEM board only) and USB-234 (DAQ box version only) feature 8 single-ended or 4 differential analog inputs with 16-bit resolution, two 16-bit analog outputs, eight digital I/O, and one 32-bit counter. The OEM version removes enclosure and screw terminals and adds headers. 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, and Python.
- 8 single-ended or 4 differential analog inputs.
- 16-bit resolution.
- USB-231-OEM: OEM board version with 50 kS/s sample rate.
USB-234: USB box version with 100 kS/s sample rate. - ±10 V input range.
- Two 16-bit analog outputs.
- Eight discrete digital I/O.
- One 32-bit counter input-
- USB-powered, no external power required.
