Digilent MCC USB-1208HS-4AO: High-Speed USB DAQ Device

The Measurement Computing USB-1208HS-4AO is a USB-based high-speed DAQ device and features 8 SE/4 DIFF analog inputs, 13-bit resolution, 1 MS/s sample rate, up to four analog outputs, 16 digital I/O and one 32-bit counter. This device supports software-selectable ranges from 5 V to 20 V in differential mode and software-selectable ranges from 2.5 V to 10 V, and 0 V to 10 V in single-ended mode. This device is USBpowered and requires no external power.

The USB-1208HS-4AO provides four 12-bit analog outputs. The output range is 10 V. Each output can update at a maximum rate of 1 MS/s.

The USB-1208HS-4AO has an external clock input terminal that supports input signals up to 1 MHz to pace A/D conversions from an external source. Also included is an external clock input terminal that supports input signals up to 1MHz to pace D/A conversions from an external source. Users can program each of the 16 TTL-level digital I/O lines for either input or output. The device supports two 32-bit TTL-level counters that accept frequency inputs of up to 20 MHz.

The USB-1208HS-4AO include a pulse width modulation (PWM) timer output with a software-selectable frequency range up to 20 MHz.
