USB-1608G Series
Analog Input
USB-1608G Series devices provide 16-bit
analog inputs that are software-selectable
as eight DIFF or 16 SE inputs. These devices
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 only)
The USB-1608GX-2AO standard/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.
Trigger Input
USB-1608G Series devices have an exter-
nal 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
Users can set up repetitive analog input
trigger events. The trigger is automati-
cally 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.
USB-1608G Series provides eight differential or 16 single-ended analog inputs,
two analog outputs (USB-1608GX-2AO), 8 digital I/O, and one counter input.
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.
